Pillars of Hercules

Falkland Estate, Fife, KY15 7AD     01337 857 749

An authentic camping experience set in rural Fife with great access to Falkland Estate - a 4500 acre area which was once the rural retreat of Royal Stuarts). There is no need to go far to find an adventure (or a quiet spot) when you are here.  For those looking for more to do within a short distance,  St Andrews is a short drive or bus journey, and travel to Edinburgh or Dundee is very accessible with local train and bus services.
The campsite is situated in a field in plain view of East Lomond (or Falkland Hill as it is known locally). This hill is the site of an Iron-Age Hill-fort which offers a great hike for anyone looking to be more active, and a wonderful sight to sit and enjoy a morning cuppa or an evening refreshment.   Plenty space to run about with the kids, with a small burn, lots of trees, many walks, and generally be outside and take slower pace to life.
