If you like you can watch YouTube videos of LiamBrown who has walked the hebridean way he actually wild camps but sometimes watching videos can be a spoiler. There is quite a lot of information online.
The camping sites in Scotland are not so cheap nowadays, they mostly now charge for the tent and each occupant but obviously still much cheaper than the hotels and B&Bs
Probably not enough and it isn't great when the society's are trying to promote the pilgrimages you can learn more if you search for "The way of St Andrews"
No, they certainly do not, there will be hostels on some routes but you would have to use B+Bs or hotels which are not cheap or maybe even couch surfing could be a possibility and wild camping is okay in Scotland. I would like it if there was!
There is talk about converting disused churches in small villages on the Fife pilgrim route into hostels but these same churches will probably turn into restaurants or houses as in towns and villages up and down Scotland and probably UK as a whole
We have quite a few pilgrimages in Scotland.
St Cuthbert’s Way - Melrose to Lindisfarne
St Magnus Way - Orkney
St Oswald’s Way - Northumberland
Fife Pilgrim Way - Culross to St Andrews
Whithorn Way - Glasgow to Whithorn
Forth to Farne Way - North Berwick to Lindisfarne
St Munn’s Way - Cowal...
Just to add, it's not a busy trail, some people cycle the route and I think you could use booking.com for accommodation purposes, i see you've already heard about the famous chippy!! Enjoy it when the time comes
@PhxRiles, Hi there, I live not too far from the fife coastal path and April can sometimes be lovely and warm and also there can be heavy rain showers so definitely carry wet weather gear with you just like anywhere in the world nowadays you never know what can happen with the weather. You won't...
I live quite near these first two places but Auchtenshoogle is a fictional village from a comic strip called "The Broons" in a Scottish Sunday newspaper 😂, @kirkie will know it well
