The area boasts various visitor attractions including National Trust for Scotland properties such as Hill of Tarvit House, Kellie Castle, and Falkland Palace. Alongside local schooling in Cupar, there are private options available at St Leonards in St Andrews and at The High School of Dundee. The property is conveniently situated near the local bus route, and there are train stations in Leuchars, Springfield, Cupar, Ladybank, and Markinch, with Edinburgh International Airport forty-five minutes away by car.
