St Andrews is renowned worldwide as the ‘Home of Golf’ and the Old Course is a regular host to the Open Championship which will next be held there in July 2022. There are now six further golf courses run by the St Andrews Links Trust, in addition to the many other golf courses in the area including The Duke’s course, two courses at Fairmount, and Kingsbarns. The town is also well known for its university. Founded in 1413, it became Scotland’s first university and is the third oldest in the English-speaking world. For over six centuries, the university has established a reputation as one of Europe’s leading and most distinctive centres for teaching and research. The town provides excellent state schooling at Madras College and both St Andrews and Dundee offer private education at St Leonards and the High School of Dundee.
Access by rail, road and air is good. Leuchars railway station (6.5 miles) is on the main Aberdeen to London line and provides a fast link to Dundee and Edinburgh. Edinburgh Airport, with its increasingly wide range of domestic and international flights, is only 50 miles away and Dundee Airport (15 miles) has regular services to London City. There is a dual carriageway and motorway connection to Edinburgh from Kirkcaldy (20 miles). An alternative route is via Cupar on the A91 to join the M90 at Junction 8 (25 miles).
