St Margaret's Parish Church of Scotland

The kirkyard sits quietly on the edge of Glenrothes, and St Margaret's is one of those properly atmospheric parish churches that rewards a quick detour if you're camping nearby. The building itself is relatively modest - late medieval stonework with later additions - but the real draw is the graveyard. Walk around back and you'll find some genuinely old stones, weathered and moss-covered, dating back centuries. It's the kind of place where you can actually feel time passing.

If you're staying at Balbirnie Park Caravan and Motorhome Club Campsite just down the road, this is a straightforward fifteen-minute walk into town and worth an hour of your time. History buffs will appreciate the inscriptions and architectural details. Families with younger kids might find it a bit quiet - there's no interactive element, just the church and the stones - but older children who like graveyards will get something out of it.

It's free to have a look around, though opening hours aren't always consistent for the main building itself. Best bet is to visit during daylight and check the door. The kirkyard is accessible most of the time. Spring and early autumn are nicest, when the light falls well across the stones. If you're doing a longer Fife park holiday - combining time at Wild Goose Glamping or Letham Feus - slot this in as a quiet half-morning rather than a main event. It's genuine without being spectacular, which is precisely what makes it worth a visit.
