Gertrud was a wonderful host. We were able to meet her in person which we really appreciated. Delightful stay for us. We had 4 adults and two children in our group at her place. It was perfect for our needs. Aberdour is a cute village which we really enjoyed. Regular rail service to and from Edinburgh Waverley Station. Would definitely recommend Number Two Aberdour to everyone!

I am Austrian and have lived in Scotland for a long time. My passion is travel and I aim to provide a home from home for other travelers, too!
When my children were young is was sometimes tricky to find suitable accommodation. I love providing the little extras that make holidays with kids easier.
Due to demand we are now allowing well-behaved dogs. Please enquire and we will provide the extra bits and pieces that make your holiday special.
I love reading comments and reviews from our guests, it makes it all worthwhile! :-)

Why they chose this property

Aberdour is a very friendly little village on the Fife coast. The area is rural and beautiful, but also within easy reach of Edinburgh. You can just jump on a train to get straight into the city centre.
Aberdour is on the Fife Coastal Path which passes about 5 min walk from the apartment. It is a fab route and you can easily walk part of it and return back to the apartment by public transport.
Aberdour has 2 beautiful beaches that are very popular, especially when it's sunny. Silversands Beach and Blacksands Beach are popular with wild swimmers and families. We are very lucky in that we often see seals. Dolphins, porpoises and whales can occasionally be spotted as well. You are best to join one of the local facebook groups for alerts.
Aberdour Castle is a very popular attraction and St. Fillan's Church is worth a visit, too.
There are a few interesting shops in Aberdour selling local souvenirs and the specialist Drinks Cabinet is very popular. A great place to try Aberdour Gin, too.
There is lots to do for children: several playparks, beaches, Sensory Garden, woodland walks, etc.
The annual Aberdour Festival is a great event. Make sure you book accommodation well in advance.

What makes this property unique

Tastefully furnished with personal touches, convenient location - just 5 min walk from the railway station, bus stop just round the corner, fab shower and cosy!
Friendly neighbours and a host who is happy to be contacted for extra help and advice!
We get great feedback for all the little extras that make a family holiday special. As a recent addition we now cater for furry friends, too.
