Some Other favourites

If you are for something a little more relaxing try Falkland Palace. Falkland Palace is an impressive Renaissance building, built by James IV and James V between 1450 and 1541. The Palace was a country residence of the Stuart monarchs of Scotland for over 200 years. Lush green lawns, colourful herbaceous borders and many unusual shrubs and trees complete the setting for this memorable property.

Or an other National Trust property a little nearer Crail, Kellie Castle, an ancient, and reputedly haunted, Scottish Castle with enchanting walled garden, woodland and meadow walks, Scottish furniture designed by Sir Robert Lorimer and beautiful painted paneling and fine plasterwork ceilings from the 17th century.
