Want the inside track and some tips on things to see and do when visiting Fife… that you can only do in Fife? You’ll be surprised at what this region offers from historic bridges, to strange stones and big fish! Intrigued?

Light the world's smallest working light tower

Visit the lovely village of North Queensferry and light the lamp of the world's smallest working light tower. Built in 1817 by Robert Stevenson as a key part of the 'Queensferry Passage' across the Forth, this tiny part of Scottish maritime history has been carefully restored to full working order. You'll also enjoy unique views of the Forth Bridge, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Visit the UK's oldest real tennis court

Did you know that you can see the UK's oldest real tennis court, built in 1539, if you visit Falkland Palace? The Stuart kings were frequent residents here and Mary, Queen of Scots adored Falkland Palace, as it reminded her of the chateaux of the French Royal Court where she grew up.

Take a selfie on the Swilcan Bridge

There is no golf played on the Old Course on a Sunday. It's the perfect time to walk in the footsteps of golfing legends and cross the famous Swilcan Bridge. Don't forget to stop and take a selfie!

Take a walk to see the amazing Bunnet Stane

The Bunnet Stane (or bonnet stone) is a weird rock formation found in the Lomond Hills. An elevated table of rock, about ten feet by twenty feet across, it sits upon a thin column of rock like a giant mushroom. If you fancy walking there, check out our blog by outdoor enthusiast Ben Dolphin.
