The historic Village of Falkland is a beautiful location for exploring with many buildings dating from the 17th and 18th centuries, and some even older. Outlander fans will know that a ghostly highlander lingers near the Bruce Fountain and just across the street inside Mrs. Bairds. Falkland is a gorgeous village and a fun photo opportunity!

St Andrews Old Town boasts over 1,000 years of history, with a Cathedral that was once one of Scotland’s most magnificent buildings. The University of St Andrews is the oldest of the four ancient universities of Scotland and, following the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, the third-oldest university in the English-speaking world. The beautiful University town is great for exploring. Cobbled streets, cafes, restaurants and historical sites make it a fantastic destination.

The ‘Old Course’ in the heart of St Andrews is recognised worldwide as the ‘Home of Golf’. Once banned in the 15th-century, golf is still the heartbeat of St Andrews. Visiting the Golf Museum and seeing first hand the famous 18th hole is a must.

During the Scottish Wars of Independence 1296 to 1314, between the Scots and the English, St Andrews Castle was destroyed several times, changing hands on a number of occasions. The castle we see today dates back to about 1400. St Andrews Castle was home to King James I of Scotland (1406-1437) when he received part of his education from Bishop Henry Wardlaw, the founder of St Andrews University in 1410. In 1445 the castle was the birthplace of King James III of Scotland.

Anstruther is the largest in a string of pretty, old-fashioned fishing villages along the stretch of Fife coast known as the East Neuk. A charming Seaside village, and great for local shops and a stretch of the legs, before returning to Edinburgh.
