A seaside town on the east coast of Fife; Leven is the gateway to the picturesque fishing villages of East Neuk, with history leading back to as far as the 15th century! Leven’s name is derived from the Pictish word for ‘flood’ and is a wonderland of woodlands and nature trails, perfect for enjoying that clean country air. Leven became a popular tourist resort when the railway link connected it to the Edinburgh-Aberdeen line in 1854 and it has remained so to this day with its beautiful, long sandy beach, the luscious Letham Glen and Siverburn parks. Golfers are drawn here by the Leven Links and Lundin Links courses, with a further two at nearby Scoonie. With the village’s close proximity to St Andrews, known as “The Home of Golf”, it is an ideal location for golf enthusiasts. Leven is a superb location for touring the beautiful coastal villages of Fife, Stirling; the largest city in central Scotland and Edinburgh.
