The Haven is a house in Back Wynd, Falkland, converted from two houses, which were separately listed. It backs onto the extension to Back Wynd leading to the car park, and its frontage is on a small close leading to The Cottage.

This page refers only to the west block; there is a separate page for the east block

It was restored in 1973 under the Little Houses Improvement Scheme.
