Anstruther Harbour — Local services in Scotland

Our first visit to Anstruther and the Harbour area.

Firstly its absolutely lovely litter place, clean and tidy with great views and atmosphere.

We managed to get a parking space near the Lifeboat House.

This was fairly convenient as it allows us to make our way down the main street/Harbour area.

This is unfortunately where our trip was let down. One of our party was a wheelchair user, the paving on the majority of the harbour side was large cobbles, this forced us to use the busy roadway.

The paving on the other side of the road is very narrow and naturally very busy, we managed to navigate through as did a couple of new parents with prams, though it was no means easy.

Once you get to the toilet area it's slightly better in that it's wide paving, though naturally very busy.

We of course had to force our way back towards the car, this unfortunately hampered our time spent shopping.

With all that said, we spent the remainder of the day a around the bay at the Lifeboat House, making use of the small fairground rides on the pier and we had a lovely afternoon.

I would highly encourage those responsible for the upkeep to make the whole area as accessible as possible within the limits of the layout of the area.

I would be very wary to recommend the area to other wheelchair users or those who are not very mobile, though its not impossible to navigate its certainly not a easy...

Stunning East neuk village, with a choice of 3 good chip shops , famous isn't always better. The wee chippy also caters for gluten free everyday not just some days. The harbour can get rather busy at times especially when the chip shops open , the Queues can be quite lengthy. Please be respectful in parking near the RNLI lifeboat station, if they get a shout they need to be able to gain access quickly to get afloat. Their swift launch could save lives . And please don't again don't feed the seagulls. They pose a hazard to the area they snatch and steal off Humans (all sizes) . And create litter . The area is steeped in history please enjoy responsibly and show...

Toilets are ok but 30p to have a pee is a bit excessive. If you can wait go half's with someone else and chip in 15pence each or if you're not that desperate someone might let you in for nowt if they have a radar key. There's showers in here too but the door is locked and you're supposed to be able to get a key from the harbour office but it was closed and no one there on Friday at 3pm. So not sure what time you can use the showers. Nice harbour anyway with boats and things. Some look a little worse for wear but most are ok. Few benches around too so its ok to sit around and watch...
