LOCAL AREA: KINGSBARNS
CONSERVATION VILLAGE
So called because it used to house the monarch's
grain for use at either Crail or Falkland Palace, this small, peaceful
village, conveniently located between St Andrews and Crail, was
the first designated conservation area in Fife. The village lies
in the eastern part of the East Neuk of Fife near the sea. Now renowned
for its award winning beach and magnificent coastline environment.
Kingsbarns is a throwback to an age of village tranquility which
is an ideal setting for a relaxing country break.
The village is also starting to attract quite
a number of golfers due to the quality of The Kingsbarns Links,
a course that should be high on your list of must play golf courses
in Fife. The village features a village shop and a former early
19th century coaching inn called The Barns which serves
good food (1st picture bottom row). The Gardens at Cambo House just
outside the village are a good day out for the family.
