Redlands Country Lodge B&B Guest House - Places TO VISIT

One of our families favourite places. The hunting estate grounds are fantastic for family walks and for tiring out Fido! Find Maspie Den waterfall on one of the estate walks. Falkland Palace is an impressive Renaissance building set in the heart of Falkland, at the foot of the Lomond Hills. It was once a favoured place of retreat and leisure for the Stuart Kings and Queens of Scotland, including Mary Queen of Scots.
Falkland is also the setting for The Big Tent Festival each year.

ST ANDREWS
What can we say that's not already out there? History, cathedral, castle, beaches and of course, the Old Course! Try the wee East sands beach too if you don't fancy the long beach near the golf course. It's quieter and not far from the castle and cathedral.
