Lower Largo is a small coastal village in the East Neuk of Fife. Once a bustling fishing village it is now a slow paced, family community surrounded by green countryside and traditional fishing villages. It is the 1676 birthplace of Alexander Selkirk, the inspiration for Daniel Dafoe's 'Robinson Crusoe' and bears a memorial statue above his place of birth some steps from our house. The Fife Coastal Path runs in front of our garden where you can access the full 117 miles of coast from the Forth Estuary in the south, to the Tay Estuary in the north. There is a children's play park directly behind our house and your toes can be touching the sand on the beach within 1 minute of leaving our front doorstep.
