Situation

8 Bells Wynd is quietly located in the centre of the sought-after coastal village of Kingsbarns. The village offers some useful local amenities including a primary school, church and a pub, with nearby Crail (2 miles) providing a good range of shops, services and facilities, as well as picturesque harbour.

The centre of the ancient and historic university town of St Andrews is a short drive (approx. 8 miles) and offers a cosmopolitan shopping district which includes South Street, Market Street, Bell Street, Church Street and North Street and a superb mix of amenities and facilities.

The city of Dundee is circa 23 miles to the north and Edinburgh is within easy reach to the south. The stunning East Neuk is nearby with its quaint picturesque fishing villages, which include Crail, Anstruther, Pittenweem and Elie, whilst the bustling former county market town of Cupar sits to the west. The countryside and coastline surrounding Kingsbarns is particularly fine and includes a lovely mix of farmland, woodland, rivers, and hill ground. The result is home to an array of wildlife which provides an excellent choice for the outdoor enthusiast with walking, cycling, sailing, and riding all readily available. There are many highly regarded golf courses in the area including the Old Course at St Andrews and the Championship Course at Carnoustie, both of which regularly host the British Open – most recently the 150th anniversary event was held at St Andrews in July 2022. St Andrews Links Trust have seven courses and other nearby courses include Kingsbarns, Crail, Dumbarnie, the Dukes, Lundin Links and Ladybank. In terms of days out Kingsbarns has a lovely sandy beach and more can be found at St Andrews, Elie and Tentsmuir, all just a short drive away. National Trust for Scotland properties in the area include Kellie Castle, Hill of Tarvit and Falkland Palace. State schooling is available locally with independent schooling at St Leonards in St Andrews and the High School of Dundee. There are rail transport links at Leuchars, Cupar and Ladybank and Dundee and Edinburgh airports are also well within reach.
