  • 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.

Powered grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: An excellent site with fantastic views across the Firth of Forth. The toilets/ showers were lovely and clean and pleasant to use. The pitches were well drained and didn't turn into a quagmire in heavy rain.

Powered grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Great quiet location, adults only, perfect for a quiet break away, 20-30 min walk from the beach, close drive to other beaches and areas, staff very friendly. Toilets and shower were well maintained and clean. Reasonably priced woth elwxtrix hook up, fresh water, chemical dispsosle site and a restaurant (although never got a chance to use this facility I've heard it's good)

Liked: Duncan was very friendly on arrival. He also checked with us to make sure everything was ok later on too. Lovely peaceful site . Beautiful scenery, loved watching the hares and the weasels running around . Lovely clean hot showers . Toilets immaculately clean . Nice short walk to the village Will definitely stay again and hopefully for longer

Disliked: Nothing ! only grumble I have is the shower having to keep pressing the water saving button every 13 seconds . But it was fine because the showers were so good ☺️

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.
