  • Hi all
    In this vlog we head up to Anstruther via Moffat, crossing over the Queensferry Crossing Bridge. We pitch up on the beautiful Silverdyke Caravan Park with amazing views across the sea, we were treated to watching a pod of dolphins from our pitch. I take you for a walk around Cellardyke and share the history of the harbour. Anstruther is a beautiful place full of tiny streets, quirky houses and steeped in history. Its also home to the famous and award winning Anstruther Fish Bar, I can highly recommend it and is worth the trip alone just to sample the fish n chips, don't forget to order the homemade tartare sauce too. I will drop a link below.

    Hi Em. We’ve not been to Moffat. But it does look lovely. Well done on the healthy breakfast. Dogs eh? You’ve got to love them 🤣 I walked across Queensferry bridge many years ago. You had glorious weather. Awesome that you saw dolphins. Looked like a nice site. The sea walk looked lovely. Like you could go for miles. All those stone cottages! Think we’d like to go there. Can’t beat decent chips! Take care ❤😊

    Hello Em. I cried the first time I ever saw dolphins, and the very first time I saw a starling murmuration top. The natural world is just amazing. Never been to Anstruther or Cellardyke but I really like those narrow roads with old terraced cottages and always love little harbours. Interesting harbour history.

      Haha I agree on the bacon David! Anstruther area is beautiful 😍 I’m so annoyed my batteries died! Didn’t even touch on the area, there’s so much to see & the history is brilliant! There’s a fishing museum too 😎 The fish n chips are a must! There is a car park down in Anstruther itself, but you’ll need to get there early in the summer! Should be ok in the winter, not sure if you can overnight there tbh as we stay usually on the forecourt we got the van from or on a site 😎! Yes I lose track of time easily 🤣 sorry it was so long🤭 Thanks for watching, Em💛

    Hi Em, really enjoyed the video, Oh its amazing when you see dolphins isn't it. Beautiful scenery. I went on a boat trip a few years ago to the Isle of May to see the sea lions, it was too rough to get off the boat. never saw a seal then got back to the harbour and there they were. loved the stone cottages and cobbled streets x 😀🥰

      We can't believe more UK van lifers don't travel over here instead of back home. Hardly seen any. Mainly, German, Swiss, French etc.
      If you ever get chance, we'd love it if you could check out our little channel. We don't think many people back home know about our trip, so we get hardly any views from the UK 😞
