Great place to stay and short walk to everything in St Andrews

10.0 / 10.0

Charming and beautiful home, perfect for our family of 5 adults. Excellent, walkable location.

10.0 / 10.0

We had a fantastic stay at this property! We were two couples traveling together on a bucket list golf trip for our husbands, and this place was absolutely perfect.The unit was clean, spacious, and very comfortable—plenty of room for four adults to relax without ever feeling cramped. One of the biggest perks was having two full bathrooms, which was truly priceless for a group. It made getting ready in the mornings and winding down at night so much easier and more enjoyable for everyone.The kitchen was well-stocked with all the essential appliances, and the in-unit washer and dryer were a huge plus. After over a week of traveling before arriving in St. Andrews, being able to do laundry made a big difference and allowed us to pack lighter.The location was ideal—just a pleasant 15-minute walk into town, where we found grocery stores, great restaurants, and plenty to explore.Our hosts, Kath and Ross, were wonderful. They welcomed us with a thoughtful gift of wine and delicious shortbread cookies, which made us feel right at home. They also responded quickly to a minor issue with the freezer—great communication and care throughout our stay.We highly recommend this property to anyone visiting St. Andrews. It truly enhanced our trip, and we’re already talking about coming back for our next visit!

The cottage and location were exactly as described and well placed for all of the activities around St Andrews. The cottage itself was very clean, well equipped and exceptional comfortable.Most importantly Kath and Ross our hosts could not have been more helpful, we had to make a small change to our booking which was dealt efficiently and without any fuss. I would not hesitate to recommend this cottage and the hosts to individuals or family's visiting the area.

We had a great weekend in St Andrews. The house was in great condition and in an absolutely perfect location. All mod cons were included and the private parking space was a great bonus. Communication with the owners before and after was spot on too.

10.0 / 10.0

Kath was proactive with suggestions for our visit and very responsive to questions. Check in was without issue and apartment afforded plenty of room for our family of 4. We were comfortably warm for some chilly nights and had plenty of natural lite during the day. Location was a simple and tranquil walk to St Andrews. We enjoyed the time thoroughly.

We stayed here for a weekend whilst watching a golf tournament on the Old Course. The location, quiet but within an easy 10 minute walk of the centre of St Andrews and 15 minutes from the Old Course, was perfect for us. The car didn’t move from arrival to departure. The cottage is warm and cosy, well presented and equipped. The host communicated brilliantly throughout. We will definitely visit again. Thank you

We stayed for 3 nights in September 2024. Home was spacious and comfortable. Host provided lots of info on the home and the town. We would stay here again and would gladly recommend to others travelling in the area. One note, there was a few scented products in the home, this was an issue for one of our party with allergies.

10.0 / 10.0

This was the perfect property for our visit to St.Andrews! Everything was close and convenient - truly a walkable location. Our hosts, Ross and Kath, were so amazing and extremely helpful when the golfers in our group needed a ride and no cabs were available. Beautiful condo, fully stocked with everything we needed, large and very comfortable! Would definitely stay here again!

We had such a lovely stay in Ross’s home. It was the perfect size for our family of four, was perfectly clean, well-stocked kitchen, lovely outdoor garden, and just a few minutes walk to downtown St. Andrew’s. The host was absolutely fantastic in helping us arrange our stay! She answered our many questions promptly and even helped us arrange a delivery of groceries prior to our arrival. We will absolutely stay here again. It is a delightful place to visit St Andrews!

10.0 / 10.0

This property was perfect for me and my friend during our week long golf trip focused around St. Andrews and Fife, and could have accommodated a larger group. The dedicated parking spot was helpful for the rental car yet was still located in easy walking distance to many of the pubs and shops. Most of all though, the responsiveness of the host before, during and after the stay was tremendously helpful. They were extremely accommodating and worked with us to try and get golf clubs delivered early before we checked in due to the original destination rejecting them. We would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a clean and comfortable place for a St. Andrews visit.

10.0 / 10.0

Cute place, safe location! Owners created a lovely manual with everything you need to know about the place and St. Andrews. Easy to walk to everything or drive if necessary (walking St. andrews is much more interesting!). Are flights were changed after we originally booked and Ron and Kath made it easy to add an extra day. Quiet neighbours. Will definitely be back!

We stayed at this property for 3 nights in the beginning of June 2023. It is well maintained and clean. Showers worked great and the kitchen appliances we used worked well. It was nice to have a washer and dryer on site also. A dedicated parking space comes with this rental. It was nice not having to worry about parking. The neighbor was quite and located just a short walk from the downtown area. The photos on this listing well represent the property and the owners were very easy to communicate with. We would not hesitate to stay here again if we are ever back in St. Andrews.
