    St Andrews is on the east coast of Scotland, in the county of Fife, north of Edinburgh.

    It is best known for golf and the university (of which Prince William is a graduate). However you can visit St Andrews Castle, walk on the long golden beach and visit the nearby Neuk of Fife with its quaint fishing villages.
