The Central Scotland/Edinburgh region

Edinburgh is around 1 hr away by car or train. A beautiful historic town and a marvelous shopping experience. Excellent restaurants and theatres, not forgetting the Edinburgh International Festival and Fringe every August. The famous medieval castle and traditional Military Tattoo.

Glasgow is a little further 1.5hrs drive but offers a lot for art and architecture lovers. It has a singularly beautiful Gothic cathedral, plus Victorian and art nouveau building design at every turn - not to mention the prestigious Burrell Collection of art and the historic turn-of-the-century Tenement House.

Perth is an hour away and is often referred to as ‘The gateway to the Highlands". If you want to experience beautiful hills and explore Scotland further afield this is an excellent place to start.


Fife / St Andrews area

St Andrews is situated on the east coast of Scotland. It is a marvelous base for exploring the East Neuk of Fife.
The East Neuk is old and fascinating, filled with quaint fishing towns and other little treasures like The Secret bunker which was one of Scotland's best kept secrets, now open to the public to give an insight into the command centre that would have been used in the event of a nuclear war.

There are now 6 Golf courses run by the St Andrews Links Trust:- including the Old Course. A seventh course The Castle Course is due to open in June 2008. Many other course are nearby - The Duke's Course, the new Kingsbarns Course and traditional links courses at Elie, Crail, Leven and Lundin Links.

Very close to St Andrews is Magus Muir, marked by a cairn, where Archbishop Sharp was murdered in 1679. The murder of Arch Bishop Sharp is reenacted every year by the students of St Andrews during the Kate Kennedy Procession, held around the end of April.

Also enjoy beautiful walks including the Fife Coastal Walk - Long Distance Footpath around the coast and fishing villages of Fife, with shorter segments that are easier walking than the whole route. Excellent bird watching opportunities.

Auchtermuchty is on the road from Edinburgh to St. Andrews. As the setting for the recent TV episodes of Dr. Finlay's Casebook, it may well be of interest to those traveling to and from St. Andrews.

Dundee is a half hour drive from St Andrews, and offers a good shopping experience, for those looking for the larger stores.
