  • Friendly adults-only site with views over the Firth of Forth estuary
  • A five-minute drive from the coast and 20 minutes from St Andrews
  • On-site restaurant with homecooked food; good public transport links
Aiming to get away to the scenic East Neuk of Fife or St Andrews’ home of golf? With views over the Firth of Forth estuary, Monturpie Caravan Park might fit the bill nicely. This family-owned adults-only site is just five minutes’ drive from Scotland's east coast (including the Fife Coastal Path), with the university town of St Andrews 20 minutes’ drive to the north. A friendly atmosphere runs freely here and pitches are well spaced out to provide plenty of peace. For more homely vibes, you’ll have the option of sampling homecooked food and baked goods in the site’s small licensed restaurant (open from Wednesday to Saturday between late morning and mid-afternoon). Other facilities include a heated toilet, shower block and a launderette with disabled facilities. Public transport’s a champ here, as links from the site entrance include express coaches to Edinburgh and Glasgow or local buses to nearby walking havens. Of course, Fife is a mecca for golf fans too and this area doesn’t disappoint, as there are a couple of golf courses five minutes’ drive away. When you feel like just letting your feet take you somewhere instead, the local village is 10 minutes’ walk away. It’s home to a small food shop and a popular hotel with quality meals (yes please, steak night and Sunday roasts). Foodie spots pull through elsewhere too, as there are a number of good-quality restaurants a short drive away, including a Michelin-starred place.

What customers say

This adult-only spot's loved for its awesome views, chill vibe, and super friendly owners. Sites are generally roomy & tidy, with clean loos & showers. The restaurant/cafe gets props for good tucker & views. Most visitors had a ripper time and would recommend, though some found facilities a bit old or the cafe's hours limited.

Liked Duncan was so lovely and helpful. A really nice guy but not overpowering! The site is rural with beautiful views and a short walk takes you into town where there is a pub which serves food. Shower was hot and very clean. It actually smells like it's cleaned unlike a lot of sites. Thank you Duncan

Disliked Could do with more than one ladies shower.

From the manager: Many thanks for your positive feedback and that you our site to your liking . Sorry if I missed pointing out the additional shower facility available for ladies that we added this summer ,sorry .

Sandra B.

Fully-serviced gravel and concrete caravan site

Liked Thoroughly enjoyable stay. We had a warm welcome from Duncan who gave us an option of available pitches and directed me onto our chosen spot. The pitches are very well proportioned so lots of space. There’s such a nice relaxed atmosphere to this site, the views are stunning and it’s ideally located for exploring the area. The site is so well cared for, lovely warm showers and clean facilities. We had an issue with our caravan and unsure what to do, we called Duncan. We were very grateful that he came almost immediately to help us out. This is a site that we hope to return to again and again. Many Thanks 🙂

From the manager: Hi Sandra , Many thanks for your lovely review really appreciated . Great that enjoyed all that our site and the surrounding area has to offer our visitors . Always try to help out should any issues arise as you had experienced on arrival .Hope that you make a return visit .

Local attractions

So, St Andrews (20 minutes’ drive) has caught your eye, but where will you descend upon first? Golf games don’t get much more historic than the Old Course (20 minutes) and those of you who are fully into your golfing lifestyle might want to peep into the golf museum in the town. Perhaps Craigtoun Country Park (20 minutes) might be your cup of tea, especially for picnics, playgrounds and walking trails. And how about somewhere a little more remote? The walking trails at Lomond Hills Regional Park (35 minutes) or Loch Leven (50 minutes) are a good shout for relaxation. You’ll get to go wildlife spotting at the same time, especially since Loch Leven is a nature reserve (and many of the trails are cycle-friendly so you can cover plenty of ground). Scotland’s Secret Bunker (15 minutes) is certainly pretty underground, in the literal sense too, as this Cold War bunker has been turned into a museum. And for another historic hidey hole, you'll want to head to Kellie Castle (15 minutes) for its arts and crafts garden and exhibitions.
