The salt-laced breeze from the North Sea drifts inland across Craigtoun Meadows, carrying the faint cries of gulls and the promise of St Andrews just down the road.

This is proper touring territory for caravans and campervans — well-suited to couples and families who want a settled base for exploring the East Neuk coastline, the Old Course, and the cobbled streets of Scotland's golfing capital. You're tucked into countryside near the historic town, far enough out to feel peaceful but close enough to nip in for fish and chips or an evening stroll along West Sands. Dog walkers should ask about policies before booking.

Details are light on facilities, so it's worth ringing ahead to check what's onsite and whether campfires are allowed — they'll confirm on arrival. Expect a straightforward, no-frills park that does what it says: a spot to pitch up, sleep well, and wake to rolling Fife farmland before heading out to beaches, cliff walks, or the ruins of the cathedral. Quiet, practical, and perfectly placed for a few days in one of Scotland's loveliest corners.

Lade Braes Walk

Meanders along a wooded glen following Kinness Burn through St Andrews, mostly flat with some gentle undulations on compacted paths. Fine for older children but uneven tree roots and narrow sections make it tricky for buggies. Dogs love it – well-used by locals exercising their pets. Offers a surprisingly wild escape just minutes from town, with stone bridges, dappled shade, and lovely burn-side scenery perfect for a lazy afternoon stroll.

Ice House Trail

Follows a gentle, mostly flat woodland path along the coast near Wormit, suitable for families and buggies on firm sections. Dogs welcome. The highlight is discovering the restored 19th-century ice house tucked into the hillside, once used to store ice cut from frozen ponds. Short and easy, it combines maritime history with pleasant Fife Coastal Path scenery and Tay estuary views – ideal for a quick leg-stretch with curious kids.

Pinecone Trail

Winds through mature woodland with gentle, undulating paths mostly suitable for families, though tree roots and uneven ground may challenge buggies—consider a carrier for toddlers. Dogs welcome on leads. Offers peaceful forest atmosphere with towering pines, dappled light, and likely wildlife spotting opportunities including red squirrels in season. Short enough for a quick nature escape, perfect before or after camping to stretch legs and enjoy characteristic Scottish woodland scenery near Dund
