Local Attractions
St Andrews Whatever the weather, you will always find something interesting to do in St Andrews (only 7 miles from Cambo).
Stroll round the beautiful historic buildings of St. Andrews University, and visit the 16th century castle, set high on the cliffs, which was used as a palace, fortress and prison (visitor centre with exhibition), or the ruins of the cathedral and climb the St. Rule Tower for a panoramic view of St. Andrews and the surrounding countryside.
Kinburn Museum has changing exhibitions and a very good tea-room, while the Museum run by the St. Andrews Preservation Trust portrays life in old St. Andrews and the high tech Golf Museum needs no other explanation.
A visit to the St Andrews Aquarium will delight adults and children alike and Craigtoun Park has a picturesque boating pond, train rides and crazy golf.
St. Andrews also provides an interesting selection of good specialist shops well worth browsing through.
Away from the estate, most interests are catered for:
Swimming (apart from the sea!) - there are swimming pools to suit every taste within a reasonable drive.
Cycle hire in St. Andrews and Anstruther
Water sports and wind surfing at Elie and Anstruther
Horse riding and trekking in Elie and around St. Andrews
Fishing – most types can be catered for in the vicinity
Ice-skating in Kirkcaldy, Dundee, Perth or Forfar
Cinemas – the cinema in St Andrews usually shows new releases. Dundee has three multiscreen complexes
Theatres – the new Byre Theatre in St Andrews, also theatres in Dundee, Perth and Edinburgh
Summer Programmes for children - Madras College in St. Andrews and Waid Academy in Anstruther provide summer programmes for children
Local Food - If you don't want to cook, or make use of our gas barbecue, choose from one of the vast range of hotels and restaurants in the vicinity. There is something to suit every taste and every pocket - from award-winning restaurants to superb fish and chip shops!

Self Catering Cottage/Home/Apartment Description
Relax and savour the tranquillity of the acres of natural woodland and parkland and be within minutes of golf courses, interesting places to visit and of course the historic university town of St Andrews.
Self Catering Apartments:
The main house is divided into five self-catering apartments.
The East and West Wings are extremely imposing with some magnificent furniture and furnishings, providing an opportunity to experience 'country house living' with modern day comforts. Taking up most of the second floor they are extremely spacious and with the inter-communicating door unlocked together sleep 16.
By contrast, the Attic on the top floor, once home to the maids, nowadays offers comfortable accommodation on a cosier scale and sleeps 5.
The Upper and Lower Servants apartments were, as the names suggest, once the rooms of servants, the ladies in the smaller Upper Servants, and the men in the now glorious Lower Servants. Both now have two bath/shower rooms for guests to enjoy rather than share a communal sink in the corridor as the previous inhabitants (we have made a feature of the one in Lower Servants as it seemed sacrilege to remove an item of such historical interest. Each sleeps 4.
The two studio apartments in the Gardener's Wing, the Garden and the Orchard, have proved to be very popular with couples looking for a short break or visiting children at St Andrews University, as well as grandparents of families holidaying in the larger apartments who can enjoy their own space unmolested. The Garden sleeps 2 in a double bed and the Orchard sleeps 2 in 2 singles.
Traditional Self Catering Cottages
Originally traditional farm cottages, Mid and East Cottages are situated a few hundred yards from the main gate to the estate at right angles to the Crail-St Andrews road.
