When to Go

Spring in the Angus glens can be quite captivating, with the hills along Angus's northernmost boundary still covered in snow. Similarly, the moorland colors of autumn are appealing. But Fife and Angus are really summer destinations, when most of the sights are open to visitors. Note that during the summer, St. Andrews hosts several international golf tournaments that effectively take over the town. Nongolfers may become incredibly frustrated when searching for accommodations or places to eat during these times, so check ahead.
