St. Andrews, the ancient and historic university town renowned world wide as the Home of Golf offers a fine cosmopolitan mix of shops, restaurants, pubs and the like. The flourishing city of Dundee is approximately 20 minutes to the north which is already home to Scott’s RSS Discovery and now benefits from the V & A Museum and provides a comprehensive offering of city shops, services and amenities with Edinburgh about an hour’s drive to the south.

The glorious rolling Fife countryside and coastline around St Andrews is home to an array of wildlife and, for the outdoor enthusiast, offers ready access to a wide range of recreational activities including walking, riding, cycling and golf. There are many highly rated golf courses with easy reach including the plethora of top courses in and around St. Andrews including the Old Course, which regularly hosts the British Open. Challenging fishing and shooting may be taken locally with the wide open spaces of the Lomond hills and several lovely beaches including St. Andrews, Tentsmuir, Kingsbarns, Crail and Elie all also within reach. In terms of day trips there are a number of National Trust for Scotland properties in the area including Falkland Palace, Hill of Tarvit and Kellie Castle, while the pretty fishing villages of Fife’s East Neuk are only a short drive to the south. Good state schooling is available locally and Lawhead Primary School is a short distance from the property. Private schooling is provided at St. Leonards in St. Andrews along with the High School of Dundee. There are railway stations in Leuchars, Cupar and Ladybank with Edinburgh Airport about an hour to the south. The busy regional airport at Dundee also offers a good range of short-haul flights.
