9 Best Sports & Activity Venues In Kingdom of Fife

Watching, in almost every case, and that is not a lesser day out. A race meeting is loud, long and completely absorbing to a child who loves machines, and it asks nothing of them beyond staying in a seat. Knockhill Racing Circuit and Cowdenbeath Racewall are the two entries of that kind on our Fife list. Ear defenders for the younger ones are the thing families most often wish they had brought.

Our records will not separate them. Barbarafield Riding School and Scholland Equestrian at Kilconquhar carry the same high score and little else to tell between them, so the choice falls to what a listing cannot hold: how far you will drive, what each does for an absolute beginner, and how they sound on the telephone. A yard that talks well to a nervous parent usually talks well to a nervous child.

Count them, but count them honestly. Lochore Meadows Country Park and Craigtoun Country Park are filed under parks rather than sport, and they appear here for what you can do in them rather than for anything they run. A family after space, water and a long walk is well served. A family that came looking for a coached hour finds a nine-entry list sounding larger than it really is.

Then most of the page shuts. Only two of the nine carry an indoor flag, and one of those is St Andrews Indoor Golf Centre, which says as much in its name and is the obvious answer to a Fife downpour. Cluny Activities is recorded as outdoor. Riding yards often have covered schools that our data misses, so ask rather than assume, but build the wet-weather plan off another heading.
