KIRKCALDY, FIFE

Positioned on the rugged east coast of Fife and looking out over the Firth of Forth, the popular town of Kirkcaldy is affectionately known as the ‘Lang Toun’ owing to its early origins as just one long street. Further development of the town was driven by its rich manufacturing industry, the most successful of which was the production of linoleum. Today Kirkcaldy is one of the largest towns in Fife, with excellent services and amenities, cultural attractions, outdoor pursuits and transport links. The thriving town centre, which runs parallel to the picturesque esplanade, boasts an array of local shops and high-street stores, plus a selection of supermarkets, an indoor market and two shopping centres. For sport and leisure, there are several gyms and sports centres, not to mention the plethora of outdoor activities right on its doorstep: from relaxed rounds of golf at Kirkcaldy Golf Club, to exploring the nearby Lomond Hills Regional Park and Loch Leven Nature Reserve. For cultural attractions, Kirkcaldy Galleries houses the town library, museum and art gallery, while the Adam Smith Theatre hosts a full programme of theatre, live music and cinema all year round. Popular with families, Kirkcaldy is served by several primary and secondary schools, and is also well placed for a range of independent schooling options from nursery to senior level. The town is also ideal for commuters, owing to its convenient road and rail links throughout Fife and the Lothian
