    The National Trust for Scotland charity’s Fife properties are gearing up for one of their most fun-packed weekends on Saturday 2 and Sunday 3 August.
    The National Trust for Scotland charity’s Fife properties are gearing up for one of their most fun-packed weekends on Saturday 2 and Sunday 3 August.

    The mansion house at Hill of Tarvit near Cupar hosts a drama troop on Saturday 2 August. Kellie Castle at Pittenweem is also playing its part in the Pittenweem Arts Festival which gets underway on the 2 August.

    On Sunday, there are great family activities on offer at Culross, where a burgh fair will be in full swing – complete with a re-enactment of the signing of the historic declaration of Arbroath and at Falkland Palace, the falcons will be in full flight.

    Edinburgh and East Buildings and Gardens Group Manager, David McAllister said:

    “There are lots of opportunities to get involved in the fantastic family activities at our properties all across Fife. The beauty of the Trust is that we have lots of different activities and types of properties on people’s doorsteps. Why not get out and explore the local area this August and discover some of Fife’s treasures with the Trust.”

    Much ado about nothing at Hill of Tarvit – Saturday 2 August at 7.15pm. Tickets cost £12.50 for adults and £7 for children.
