Kingsbarns, Fife
★★★
Only a few places in Scotland feature such a fantastic array of slightly haphazard colour as Cambo Estate’s walled gardens; on a warm, summer’s day it’s a fine place to while away a couple of hours. Beyond the walled garden the estate spills down the wooded Cambo Burn towards the North Sea, with attractive footpaths which are also accessible at the lower end from the Kingsbarns to St Andrews stretch of the Fife Coastal Path. In fact the gardens and grounds are only some of a growing number of attractions making Cambo Estate an excellent choice for a day out in east Fife: a golf course, Kingsbarns whisky & gin distillery and the elegant house itself are among the others.
