  • 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

Adults only, with great Firth of Forth views. Owner Duncan's friendly, facilities are clean and well-kept. Spacious pitches, many with sea views. Site's a work in progress but peaceful, great for exploring the East Neuk. Restaurant/takeaway also a hit.

Paul M.

Fully-serviced gravel and hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Great pitch and view is awesome. Picked a weekend where it was blowing a gale but cant complain. Duncan is a great host and has a good bit of fun about him. Didn't realise the big grey metal unit was toilets, would have saved a walk :)
Showers are brilliant and very warm. Very peaceful and no problems with other guests. A bit of a walk down to the village in the rain but I am sure on a sunny day its well worth it. Defo be back.

Disliked An extra few amps on the electric would be good as it popped a few times and had to move the van late at night as couldn't get it back on. Duncan was up in 2 minutes to try and resolve so no big deal.

Fully-serviced grass touring pitch

Liked Spacious pitches for privacy and great walks from site for the dogs. Lovely laundry room with little treats to purchase. Toilets were lovely and clean. On site tearoom with cooked breakfast and evening meals. Can also do takeaways.

Disliked Limited toilets so might cause a problem when site is very busy. Also no Wi-Fi had to use own 4g which luckily got good signal.

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.
