The house also sits beside extensive forests and farmland, providing plenty of walking and nature-watching opportunities.

The nearby market town of Cupar (8.5 miles) is a vibrant community with good local services and amenities including supermarkets, independent retailers, professional services, restaurants and sports facilities including a leisure centre which has a swimming pool. There is a particularly good parkland golf course at Ladybank which is one of the select few used for qualifying for The Open Championship. There are also popular cricket clubs in Freuchie and Cupar, and The Howe of Fife Rugby Club caters for adults, juniors and minis alike. Local primary schooling is available at Ladybank which feeds Bell Baxter High School in Cupar. Woodside House is also well placed for a choice of private schooling. The High School of Dundee, St Leonard’s in St Andrews and Kilgraston and Strathallan just south of Perth, are all less than 20 miles away.
