A campsite near St Andrews
About Alba Yurts
Tucked into 15 acres of farmland near Peat Inn, Alba Yurts offers an appealingly simple back-to-basics escape just five miles from St Andrews. The Scottish-made yurts follow traditional Kyrgyz design and sleep up to four, furnished with single beds (doubles on request), a woodburning stove for cooking and heating, and basic utensils – though there's no electricity or shower, only chemical loos and a washing-up area.
It's peaceful, wildlife-rich territory ideal for walkers, with Cameron Reservoir, fishing, cycling and golf all close by, plus excellent public transport links if you'd rather leave the car at home. The setting suits those happy to embrace a wilder, quieter style of camping, though anyone expecting modern conveniences might find the facilities too stripped back. Dogs are welcome year-round, and the hosts can arrange pick-ups from nearby stations.

What visitors say
Beautiful pods located in such a peaceful location. The pods were equipped with everything we needed (plus extras which were a lovely surprise on our arrival!) Nicky and Eric are incredibly helpful, responsive and kind hosts. We felt well looked after and thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Would definitely visit again!

Our first time using a pod, but not our last. We had an extremely enjoyable stay with our dog. Everything was clean and in excellent condition. The pods are set in a fantastic location with plenty of woodland walks, a field next to the pods for exercising dogs, and Culross only a mile away. The hosts were very welcoming and ensured that we had what we needed for our dog. There's a fenced pond next to the pods which adds to the idyllic experience of relaxing outside the pod enjoying a sundowner. We plan to visit again.

The pod was easy to find with directions given by the owners. There is parking available for the pod a few seconds walk away. The pod itself was brilliant and even had underfloor heating! It was spotless and had a wee welcome nip which went down a treat. The bed was comfy and we both had a great sleep. Nearby walks were pointed out to us by the owners along with a recommendation for a nearby pub for food (Red Lion Inn, Culross) that was fantastic. They were very friendly and contactable throughout the stay. The surrounding views of the pod are incredible, especially at sunset with a fire going in the chiminea (wood and matches were provided). We would definitely come back again, especially to see the dogs! :D

We had a fantastic time at the West Fife Pods. All communication with Eric & Nicky was super clear, helpful & welcoming. The pod itself was spotless and had everything we needed for our stay, as a family of four, with young kids. The location is great, peaceful and quiet yet a very short drive to Culross and Limekilns - which are both lovely. We will definitely stay again.
