We visited the castle gardens for a pumpkin hunt during the covid pandemic. What a gorgeous place, the chapel and castle are stunning buildings and I look forward to visiting again when you can get tours inside. The gardens are beautiful and well maintained with lots of different areas to explore. I’m sure it will be even more stunning in full bloom in the Spring/Summer. The free pumpkin hunt (donations welcome) was very well done and was enjoyed by my 10 year old son and myself. What a great way to encourage visitors during the school holidays when very little things are available. Will definitely be back.

The Harbours of Limekilns

Reviewed By Mobile35942195053 - Bristol, United Kingdom

After visiting beautiful Aberdour and heading for Culross, we just had to stop at Limekilns and take in the views from this beautiful harbour. Free parking, large grassy areas, sculptures, tributes and information boards. Fabulous views back towards Edinburgh and those bridges.

Robinson Crusoe Statue

Reviewed By bsandrs - Portsmouth, United Kingdom

The driver who took us to St Andrews suggested a diversion to show us an unlikely statue. In the delightful town of Lower Largo, on a fairly narrow street and mounted on an outside wall of a normal house there is a statue of the boyhood story hero, Robinson Crusoe. Well worth the diversion, the house (Not the original) stands where Alexander Selkirk was born, the actual figure who lived alone on an Island for over four years. It is a very good statue.
