Sightseeing - Dunfermline

Dunfermline is the ancient capital of Scotland and was recently awarded city status during the Queen's Jubilee celebrations. The city centre, with a variety of High Street ships, is 5 minutes walk from the flat and all these suggestions are easy walking distance.
Beautiful park, gifted to Dunfermline by the philanthropist Andrew Carnegie. Lovely variety of walks, children's playpark and squirrels who love to be fed. There's also a weekly 5k parkrun every Saturday at 9.30am.

Sightseeing - Fife and Beyond

In addition to the obvious attractions of Edinburgh, which is in easy travelling distance from Dunfermline, the local area of Fife has many hidden gems worth exploring. Here are a few select highlights to consider.
Famous for the home of golf and the oldest university in Scotland it is easy to enjoy wandering through the streets or meandering on the long stretches of open beach. You might even find yourself wanting to recreate the beach run from ' Chariots of Fire'! Under an hour's travel from Dunfermline.

The path extends 116 miles along the coast providing many opportunities for beautiful walks. My favourites are in the East Neuk area, particularly the stretch from Elie to Anstruther where there's always the reward of fish and chips on the pier!

Great place to view the the forth bridges. The rail bridge is particularly spectacular at night. It's possible to walk across the Forth Road Bridge. Boat trips on the Maid of the Forth are also recommended.

Lovely historic coastal town well worth a visit. Ideal for strolls along the coast and if you're an Outlander fan you'll recognise that many scenes were filmed here. The Red Lion pub is also great for a pint or bite to eat.
