Tayport is a picturesque coastal town in northeast Fife, ideally situated just 5 miles from Dundee and 10 miles from St Andrews, with easy access to Edinburgh and Glasgow. Steeped in history, it was once a key ferry port and shipbuilding hub, originally known as Ferry-Port-on-Craig. Today, Tayport blends historic charm with modern convenience, offering a vibrant community, local amenities, and stunning natural surroundings, including the Tentsmuir National Nature Reserve and Scotscraig Golf Club which boasts its title as the 13th oldest golf club in the world. With a scenic harbour, excellent transport links, and a welcoming atmosphere, Tayport is a hidden gem on Scotland’s east coast, perfect for those seeking a peaceful yet well-connected place to live.
The opening of the Tay road bridge in 1966 ensured Dundee became easily accessible from north-east Fife.
Tayport, Newport-on-Tay and Wormit are strung along the estuary's southern bank hillside, enjoying spectacular views over the river and the two bridges. Away from the waterfront are villages like Gauldry and Balmerino, with the latter's beauty and ruined 13th Century abbey celebrated in verse by William McGonagall. It enjoys Conservation Area status.
Newport was briefly christened "New Dundee" by Guildrymen who financed development plans. The pier and inn date back to 1715 with a Telford-designed harbour built in 1820.
Tayport rubs up against the Tentsmuir Nature Reserve and is home to Scotscraig Golf Club. In times past it was known as Ferry-port on Craig, before the Victorian railway line arrived in the 1850s.
These communities may look towards Dundee for "big city" amenities but easily accessible Cupar and St Andrews also provide secondary school educational and shopping options.
