Cairnie Fruit Farm

Cairnie Fruit Farm is a visitor farm attraction just outside St Andrews, offering pick-your-own fruit, a kids' funyard, a large open play area and a café. Dogs are welcome on a lead in selected areas across the farm, making it a handy east-Fife day out when you'd rather not leave them at home.

Your dog can join you in the general farm visitor areas and the big open play space, but they're not allowed in the Funyard or Mega Maze, the fruit and pumpkin picking zones or inside the café. It's the sort of place where one human can queue for coffee while the other takes a sniff lap outside.

Cairnie Fruit Farm opens Wednesday to Sunday, 10 am to 4.30 pm. It's a proper visitor destination rather than a quick stop, so factor in lead time, a water bottle for the dog and the likelihood of at least one enthusiastic lunge towards a passing pumpkin.
