SITUATION
Balmashie enjoys a beautiful setting close to the coast, just a short distance to the south of the ancient and cosmopolitan town of St Andrews, known worldwide as the home of golf. St Andrews offers an excellent range of facilities along with a highly regarded and historic university. To the west lies Cupar, Fife’s bustling county market town, which also provides a complete range of services. The city of Dundee can be accessed in approximately half an hour by car and provides a good range of big city amenities, including shopping centres, leisure centres, two universities, railway and bus stations, along with an airport with regular flights to London. The city of Edinburgh can be reached in just over an hour by car and provides a further range of big city amenities including an international airport.

Surrounding Balmashie is an area of truly exceptional Fife countryside comprising a glorious mix of fertile farmland, woodland, hills, stunning coastline, and river. The area is home to a diversity of wildlife and has access to a wide range of outdoor pursuits including riding, cycling, walking, sailing, and golf. A short walk from the site is the Fairmont Hotel which offers restaurants, bars, swimming, fitness and spa facilities.

There will be the availability to utilise the existing private drainage, however, these services may require upgrading depending on the final capacity required.
