Location
2A Lumbo Den is one of four houses in a steading development in a rural setting just outside St Andrews. The former farmhouse is the fifth dwelling and there are a pair of former farm cottages adjacent.

Lumbo Den is away from the hustle and bustle of St Andrews whilst being only 2.5 miles from the town centre with all its shops, pubs and restaurants. There is a gate onto the Lade Braes footpath beside the neighbouring cottages. This path leads through ancient woodlands alongside the Kinness Burn all the way into the centre of the town.

The house is opposite both The Duke’s Golf Course and a partially constructed new golf course at Feddinch. The Duke’s Golf Course is a stunning parkland golf course with superb views over St Andrews. It is owned by Kohler Company who also own The Old Course Hotel. Mount Melville and Balone are clusters of houses built below Craigtoun mansion house on the top of the hill.

There are now seven golf courses under the management of the St Andrews Links Trust, including the world-famous Old Course which played host to the 150th Open Championship in 2022. There are many other golf courses nearby, including two courses at Fairmont St Andrews, Kingsbarns and Dumbarnie.
