About the property:
Our three holiday properties are situated in and around Hill of Tarvit Mansionhouse, a gracious Edwardian house with beautiful gardens, both remodelled in 1906 by the distinguished architect Sir Robert Lorimer.
We regret to advise that the mansionhouse is no longer open to the public. The gardens, grounds and Hickory golf course all remain open. The long awaited Hickory golf couse opened in June 2008 offering golfers the chance of playing a traditional round with original hickory clubs and softer golf balls.
About the area:
Set amid peaceful countryside 2 miles from Cupar and 10 miles from St Andrews, Hill of Tarvit is centrally placed for touring 8. Children will be fascinated by the Scottish Deer Centre, approximately 4 miles away. All the properties have fine views over rolling farmland. The nearest shops are 1 mile away in Ceres and 2 miles away in Cupar. 8 boasts all four of Scotland's Blue Flag beaches - ensuring that they are clean and safe with plenty of facilities. St Andrews West Sands, Elie Harbour Beach, Burntisland and Aberdour Silver Sands have all passed with flying colours.
There are plenty of other beaches which have won Seaside Awards, from Kinghorn to Crail, Anstruther to Kingsbarns. For safe family fun, 8's beaches are the best in Scotland.

Conveniently situated in the centre of this picturesque village of cobbled streets and fascinating old buildings, St Andrew's House was built in the 17th century, in order to house the overflow of the large number of courtiers who travelled with the King and Queen when they stayed at Falkland Palace. Maybe you will understand why Mary, Queen of Scots, spent some of her happiest days at this property while you are strolling through the superb garden. PLEASE BE AWARE FROM 11 JUNE 2012 FOR APPROXIMATELY 3 WEEKS THERE WILL BE BUILDING WORKS TAKING PLACE. THIS WILL BE EXTERIOR ONLY BUT THERE WILL BE SCAFFOLDING AT THE BACK OF THE PROPERTY. OUR APOLOGIES FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE THIS MAY CAUSE.

Accommodation details:
Sleeps 4. Accommodation comprises: two twin bedrooms, sitting room, kitchen, separate dining room and bathroom with bath only.
Services : gas central heating from gas fire with back boiler, water heated by immersion
Our holiday flat is situated on the first floor, overlooking the beautiful Palace orchard and garden. It is reached through a shared front door via a steep spiral staircase, which we regret is not suitable for the elderly or infirm. There is one parking space for the flat on the cobbles at the gable end of St Andrew's House nearest the Palace. There is also a free car park in the village, which is a short walk from the property.
Holiday guests who are non-members are entilted to a complimentary visit to the Palace and gardens during normal property opening hours.
About the property:
The historic Royal Burgh of Falkland lies 11 miles north of Kirkcaldy on the A912. Its focal point is the Royal Palace and Garden, built between 1450 and 1541, the hunting residence of the Stewart kings and queens. Mary, Queen of Scots spent some of her happiest days here 'playing the country girl in the woods and parks'.
About the area:
The village of Falkland has a small supermarket with a post office. There is also a bakers, fruit shop and several gift and antique shops. Places to eat include Italian and Chinese restaurants and three public public houses, all within easy walking distance. There is also an organic shop and cafe on the Falkland Estate. If your taste extends to the hills, your attention will quickly be caught by the mass of East Lomond looming steeply over Falkland to the south west. Its 424m summit is not high by Scottish standards, but it nicely sets off the village and provides a good balance to the dominance of the palace.
Falkland is situated 16 miles from St Andrews, home of Scotland's oldest university and the Royal and Ancient, possibly one of the most famous golf clubs in the world.
Fife boasts all four of Scotland's Blue Flag beaches - ensuring that they are clean and safe with plenty of facilities. St Andrews West Sands, Elie Harbour Beach, Burntisland and Aberdour Silver Sands have all passed with flying colours. There are plenty of other beaches which have won Seaside Awards, from Kinghorn to Crail, Anstruther to Kingsbarns. For safe family fun, Fife's beaches are the best in Scotland.
