Elie Beach

Reviewed By johnhouston2 - Knaresborough, United Kingdom

When you think of the requirements for a good seaside resort, Elie and Earlsferry is pretty much as good as it gets. The village is quaint and charming, the beach is fantastic, the harbour area lovely, the coastal walks stimulating, etc etc etc. Add the delightful Ship Inn and several other delightful cafes and shops and you really have it all. We always pop in here when we are in Fife and have never been disappointed.

Eden Mill

NEW DISTILLERY CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION. UNFORTUNATELY WE'RE CURRENTLY UNABLE TO ACCEPT VISITORS. Just outside St Andrews, Eden Mill is Scotland's original single-site brewery & distillery. Since 2012 we've been brewing and distilling here, creating a unique and diverse range of beer, gin and whisky.

What a great afternoon we had blending our own gin and hearing the interesting takes of gin and the history of Eden Mill from Matthew who was very engaging and a fantastic host. Would absolutely recommend.

St Andrews Cathedral

St Andrews Cathedral is now open and we are delighted to welcome you back. Booking in advance is essential. Find out more and book at restarthistory.scot. The cathedral grounds will be open Sun to Tues. The remains of St Andrews Cathedral, which was Scotland’s largest cathedral and most magnificent church, show how impressive it used to be. The museum houses an outstanding collection of early and later medieval sculptures and other relics found on the site, including the magnificent St Andrews Sarcophagus of Pictish date. The precinct walls are particularly well preserved. St Rule's Tower, in the precinct, is part of the first church of the Augustinian canons at St Andrews built in the early 12th century. There are splendid views from the top.

University of St Andrews

Founded in 1411, this university forms the centre of town.

Reviewed By kwagmeister - Newburgh, United States

The oldest university in Scotland shares St. Andrews town with the glorious Old Course, making the town a destination point for golfers and those of us who travel with them. Thank goodness for the interesting architecture and parklike grounds of the University, which makes for a lovely walk around town. The University is spread out across the town, with departments tucked in nooks and crannies and student housing just about everywhere. The presence of the University students adds youthful energy to this very old town. We ducked into a church at one point in our walk and found a university student choir rehearsing. Their voices were absolutely beautiful and filled the old church with such life. What a treat. Graduation is next week so there was a lot of sprucing up taking place, making the grounds and buildings all the lovelier.

Really pretty harbour with lovely old buildings all the way down to it. Great wee cafe on the way down called the Crail gallery and cafe. Shack selling lobster and dressed crab so you can sit around the lovely old stone harbour to eat it, if you like.

Find out how Andrew, born a weaver’s son in Dunfermline, emigrated to America and became the richest man in the world, and one of the most generous philanthropists of all time. The Memorial Hall adjoining the cottage tells the story of Andrew Carnegie’s lasting legacy which includes internationally renowned landmarks such as the Carnegie Hall in New York, the Peace Palace in The Hague, over 2,800 public libraries around the globe, Mount Wilson Observatory in California, and, of course, the Diplodocus carnegii dinosaur.

Found this hidden gem while visiting Dunfermline abbey. Very informative museum reflecting the life of Andrew Carnegie. Great staff as well! Thank you for advising my wife on buying the proper Carnegie biography - she managed to finish the whole thing during our holidays and has become an expert on steel production in the process ;-)

Dunfermline Abbey and Palace

Dunfermline Abbey Nave is now open and we are delighted to welcome you back. Booking in advance is essential. Find out more and book at restarthistory.scot. Please note the palace remains closed at this time. Admire one of Scotland's most impressive medieval interiors and most important royal sites, founded as a priory in about 1080. Robert the Bruce was buried in the medieval choir, now beneath the Abbey church of 1821. St Margaret and David I are among a number of monarchs and other royalty laid to rest here. Charles I was born in the palace that grew up alongside the abbey.

Reviewed By N9346YImariah

We were very impressed by this place went not expecting too much as we know the palace was a ruin however the historic Scotland staff member really brought it to life. His knowledge and direction were superb. My daughter was given a quiz which kept her engaged while we were exploring. The nave of the abbey was beautiful, disappointing the the actual abbey was closed for winter so we were unable to visit the resting place of king Robert the Bruce we will definitely try and take a trip back at some point. There is a small museum just next to the abbey which is also worth a visit free entry and has a lovely tea room. Thumbs up from us!
