Location
The historic and delightful village of Gifford dates back to the late 17th century and is nestled in the foothills of the Lammermuirs, approximately 4 miles south of Haddington. Despite its rural location it is only 25 miles east of Edinburgh and is easily reached via the A1 and B6369.
The subject property occupies a prominent position on the north side of Gifford’s Main Street. It is adjacent to the well-known Goblin Ha’ public house and is close to several commercial occupiers including a Co-op Food Store, gift shop, post office, hotel and newsagent.
Nearby Yester Primary School and adjoining residential districts ensure there is a thriving local community which will be of benefit to an ingoing occupier.
