Down on the farm - 10 reasons to visit Balgove Larder on your holiday

When I'm on a self-catering holiday an important and very enjoyable part of the whole experience is trying out some local food and drink, whether I'mm abroad or just somewhere else in the UK. Fife, with its acres of farmland and proximity to the sea is fast becoming the Kingdom of quality local food producers. So for holidaymakers this equals foodie paradise!

Where could be more authentic for local food than a local farm shop? I suggest that if you want to sample the best of Fife and beyond then get yourself to the granddaddy of Fife farm shops: Balgove Larder, just outside St Andrews.
