In Saint Andrews, we can enjoy the scenery of the county of Fife, located on the eastern coast of the country.

It will therefore be the ideal time to have lunch.

View Point, Forth Bridges
A904, Newton, EH52 6QF
The Forth bridges are a unique national asset. Nowhere else in the world can boast three major bridges that span three centuries of engineering innovation on such a scale and in such close proximity. Each has been a world record holder in its own right. All three reflect the future as well as the past, carrying millions of travellers and goods across the Firth of Forth every year by train, bus, lorry, cycle, car or on foot. The historic communities of North and South Queensferry, the crossing point since Queen Margaret paid for a ferry to carry pilgrims in the 11th century, lie in the shadow of these bridges.
