  • Adults-only park with spectacular views over the Firth of Forth
  • Largo Law walks directly from the park; St Andrews a 20-minute drive
  • Fife Coastal Path and the East Neuk fishing villages under 15 minutes
Fancy a foray to Fife? Then find yourself at family-run Forth House Caravan Site with views over the Firth of Forth. This small and scenic spot in a raised valley also looks out over sweeping farmland – see pics – with strolls to set off on nearby via a network of footpaths and country roads. The Largo Law ancient volcano towering above the fields is 20 minutes’ walk to the west, while the Fife Coastal Path passing through the characterful fishing villages of the East Neuk area is under a 15-minute car ride away. If you’ll mostly be driving or taking the bus around the region (a stop’s within walking distance of the park), sights are simple to get to from the main Upper Largo to St Andrews A915 road a few hundred metres away, yet there’s no noise from traffic to be heard from the grounds. As well as being near to St Andrews – the Home of Golf is 20 minutes’ drive away – golf courses are plentiful in the local area, with Charleton’s less than a 10-minute drive away to start off with. A little further on (15 minutes) are watersports on the coast around Elie and horse riding in the rural surrounds of Kilconquhar Castle Estate. Facilities at Forth House Caravan Site include sluices for cassette disposal, a motorhome service point and a heated toilet block with shower facilities. Wifi is also available and dogs are allowed on site.

Local attractions

For fishing village explores set off for Crail, Anstruther, Pittenweem and St Monans, all less than 25 minutes’ drive away, for colourful cottages with tons of character and easy access to short coastal walks. If a city stroll with a healthy dose of fresh country air appeals, St Andrews has a cathedral and castle to peer at as well as a wide, long beach; this whole eastern coast is in fact full of sandy shores – try Shell Bay a 15-minute drive from the park if the Scottish sun makes an appearance. Further north past St Andrews is another splendid city, Dundee, on the Firth of Tay estuary with a renovated waterfront including a couple of maritime museums as well as a museum introducing visitors to the region’s jute-making history.

FHU cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked The arrival is easy, the arrival text was brilliant and made it an easy access. The site is clean and tidy. Beautiful views from the pitches. There is a warden on site but we didn’t see anyone but in fairness we didn’t need anything it was all explained in the arrival text. The phone single wasn’t very good but you’re in the middle of no where so to be expected. The showers were spotless and the full services pitches were well organised.

Disliked There wasn’t anything to dislike
