  • Small, friendly site in woodlands just outside Leven with sea views
  • A half-hour drive from St Andrews and an hour from Edinburgh
  • Café and bike hire on site; 400m from the beach and coast path
Woodland walks, seaside strolls, golfing days, space to cycle… ooh, there’s a whole bundle of favourite Fife fresh-air activities in the area just around Silverburn Park Campsite. This is a particularly prime spot for those seeking outdoorsy days: it’s within the tree-filled Silverburn Park (putting those woodland walks right on your doorstep) and a mere 400 metres from the Fife Coastal Path and the sands of Leven beach. Golfing types have a pick of three (yep, three) courses within a five-minute drive, while those who fancy a spot of cycling can hire bikes on site for easy pedalling. Fuelling up for all such antics is pretty straightforward at this friendly little site – just stop by at the café next to reception for hot drinks, home baking and rolls or toasties to take away. Or perhaps you might like to start up a campfire or a barbecue for the evening? Any of the above would be a fine accompaniment to some time spent taking in the views over the Firth of Forth… Reckon such a fine location means you’ll need to travel for miles to find any form of civilisation? Not at all – the supermarkets, restaurants and pubs of Leven are just over a mile away, and jaunts further afield are pretty easy given that the A915 passes the front of the main park. And as if all this wasn’t enough, you may also like to know that this place is owned by a local charity that helps people with mental health problems into work – so you’ll be doing your bit simply by coming along to stay.

Local attractions

You could certainly spend a large chunk of time here just in the vicinity of the park, wandering along the coast path, hanging out on the beach or strolling around the woods and walled garden of Silverburn Park. And you could certainly spend an even larger chunk of time exploring the land beyond: perhaps heading to St Andrews (half an hour’s drive) for stunning architecture, splendid beaches and a taste of student life, or checking out the final resting place of much Scottish royalty at Dunfermline Abbey (40 minutes). A tour of the East Neuk of Fife (half an hour) is a fine idea too – especially if you plan stops for fish and chips in Anstruther and/or picking up fresh seafood in Pittenweem. If you’re on for a proper Scottish tour, add to the to-do list a trip to Edinburgh (an hour’s drive) for famed attractions including the castle and Holyrood Palace or the cultural curiosities of its summer festivals.
