We are delighted to have been able to install this state-of-the-art, all-inclusive facility at Craigtoun, thanks to a very generous legacy left to us by a Craigtoun supporter. It has taken a considerable amount of time to finalise the project but we are pleased to announce that it is now available to use. The key can be picked up from the Ticket Office when our seasonal attractions are running or by calling the admin office mid-week on 01334 472013. The legacy was supplemented by funding from St Andrews University, which paid for the tarmac surrounding the facility, and St Andrews Community Trust, which allowed us to install the ramp.
Hello, I’m Jan and I’m a volunteer for Friends of Craigtoun. I have been coming to St. Andrews on holiday with my family since I was a toddler and a highlight was always our visits to Craigtoun Park
Several years ago, I was advised to attend an NHS sponsored fitness class in Cupar as I had health problems and it was there that I met Tom, a volunteer at Craigtoun Country Park, and Kyff Roberts, who was the Chairman of the Friends of Craigtoun Country Park. I live just five minutes away from the Park in Strathkinness but had not visited the place in over 30 years.
When I heard that Craigtoun was in danger of closing and that a determined group of people were going to try and ensure that didn’t happen, I was only too glad to help in any way I could. Like many people in this area, I had known and loved Craigtoun all my life and the thought of losing this gem didn’t bear thinking about.
