Situation
Picturesque and peaceful, Falkland, Scotland’s first conservation village, lies at the foot of the Lomond Hills. Boasting a variety of shops, galleries, cafes, and pubs along with a community hall, the village centre was recently used in the hit TV series Outlander to portray the part of 1940s and then 1960s Inverness. Recreational amenities include Falkland Cricket Club, community tennis courts, and Falkland Golf Club and there are beautiful walks to enjoy at spots such as Maspie Den and the Lomond Hills National Park. Cupar lying along the River Eden is a twenty-minute drive away and offers further leisure, dining, and recreational amenities whilst St Andrews, Scotland’s ‘Home of Golf’ is just under a forty-minute drive.

Surrounded by scenic countryside the area boasts various impressive visitor attractions including the spectacular Falkland Estate with its extensive gardens and the renaissance Falkland Palace, once the residence of the Stewart kings and queens and home to one of only two 16th Century tennis courts in Britain (the other at Hampton Court). Alongside local schooling in Falkland and Cupar including Falkland House School, there are further options available at St Leonards in St Andrews and at The High School of Dundee. There are train stations in Cupar, Ladybank, and Markinch, with Edinburgh International Airport less than an hour away by car. Domestic flights are available from Dundee.
