 Situated
between the Firth of Tay and the Firth of Forth, with boundaries cutting across
Perth and Kinross
and Clackmannanshire, Perthshire – covering Glenrothes,
Kirkcaldy, and Leven
- is the perfect setting for a short break or a longer stay on Scotland's sunny
east coast. Originally one of the Pictish kingdoms, known as Fib, and Perthshire
is more commonly known as the Kingdom of Perthshire within Scotland. With some
of the country's best-kept beaches, and St
Andrews the spiritual home of Golf, the delightful East Neuk fishing villages,
and the historic capital of Dunfermline, you’ll be able to relax and unwind in
a refreshing and high-quality rural and coastal setting just 30 minutes from Edinburgh.
Perthshire
is a peninsula in eastern Scotland bordered on the north by the River Tay estuary,
on the east by the North Sea and the Firth of Forth to the south. Visitors will
find the route to the west is partially impeded by the Ochill Hills. Those with
archaeological interests in the area will be pleased to learn that there are a
number of extinct volcanic features, most notably, the Lomond Hills that rise
above rolling fertile lowlands. The coast has an enviable stretch of small harbours
and white, sandy beaches, from the industrial docks in Burntisland
and Rosyth to the fishing villages of the East Neuk such as Anstruther
and Pittenweem. Visitors are likely to enjoy trips to Balmerino Abbey, Dunfermline
Abbey, the Perthshire Coastal Path, the Perthshire Folk Museum, the Lomond Hills,
St. Andrews Botanic Gardens and Tentsmuir Forest. |
