Eastkirk has quite the story to tell! It all began in 1843, during a dramatic chapter in Scottish history known as the “Disruption of 1843,” when a group of passionate Evangelicals decided they’d had enough of state interference in the Church. They formed their own Free Church congregation right here, and by 1848, the original church was built as a place of worship and community.
Fast forward to 1894, and the little church got a serious glow-up, transforming into the stunning Gothic-style red sandstone building you see today. With its grand arches and intricate stonework, it’s been turning heads ever since! Now beautifully restored, this historic gem has swapped sermons for staycations, offering a unique holiday retreat filled with charm, character, and a touch of old-world elegance.
Whether you're here for the history, the views, or just a peaceful escape, Eastkirk welcomes you to relax, unwind, and soak in its storied past—no hymnbook required!
