In Fife, the mountains of the Highlands give way to rolling hills and farmland on this peninsula between the Firth of Forth and Firth of Tay. Our holiday cottages in Fife will give you the chance to explore the historic Kingdom of Fife, so called because, for centuries, it was the home of Scotland’s kings until James VI.St. Andrews is the major draw for visitors here. Famous as the home of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club, and for its magnificent golf courses, St. Andrews also hosts Scotland’s oldest university. The town also boasts the atmospheric ruins of a 12th century cathedral and castle, and it’s an easy drive from our holiday cottages in Fife.Once the capital of Scotland, Dunfermline is the final resting place of Robert the Bruce and also the birthplace of philanthropist Andrew Carnegie. Take a stroll round the beautiful gardens of Pittencrieff Park while you’re here. Falkland Palace is another highlight of Fife. This is a stunning renaissance palace, built as a hunting lodge for the Stuart Kings, featuring some superb interiors. And don’t miss the East Neuk, a string of pretty fishing villages set on a truly picturesque coastline.
