About this house rental

**See important note below**.Directly overlooking the sea with panoramic views of St Andrews bay, nestled between the Castle and Cathedral, in the heart of the old town of St Andrews. Refurbished and restyled in ‘manhattan loft’ style - amazing communal lounge and dining area. Private garden. A short walk to the golf links and the world famous Old Course.

** IMPORTANT NOTE** our next door neighbour is selling their property in 2025, with planning permission for a major redevelopment of their property. We have discounted our rates to reflect this - hopefully there will be no works during your stay, we just cannot guarantee this - but we wanted to be completely open with all our guests before booking. Your stay for up to 6 adults could be great value with unbelievable views from all windows over all three beaches, the golf courses, the Castle and the Cathedral....

All photographs here are taken from the property!

thebeachhouse is an inspiring townhouse with stunning open-plan living room and kitchen/diner with elevated penthouse views over St Andrews bay.

The open plan 'manhattan loft' is our feature area - a first floor lounge and kitchen/diner which gives you elevated views from the Cathedral at the rear to the beaches and Castle out front.

We have three bedrooms (one double and two twins) which will sleep six people, three bath/shower rooms, and in addition a garden room/snug with a corner sofa

Please note, as our townhouse has an open plan middle floor, it is not possible to put stair-gates on for very young children.

From your doorstep walk around the many restaurants, cafes and bars of the bustling medieval Scottish coastal town of St Andrews. Visit the many attractions of the town, including golf courses, cycle tracks, beaches, leisure centre, parks, botanical gardens, theatre, and museums. Not to mention the distilleries and brewery!

We stayed at this beautiful Townhouse for a family retirement golf trip to Scotland in late August with my sons. We could not have picked a nicer home and a more beautiful / convenient location than here. The hosts were so gracious and helpful as we planned for this trip. Could not be more grateful for the warm welcome they extended. We made St. Andrews our base for this trip and the views from this townhouse were spectacular. Location was so convenient to experience all that is St. Andrews. We walked everywhere to dinner, pubs, and the beautiful scenery / attractions around St. Andrews. Easy walk to Old Course, Dunvegan, and very short drive to The Jigger Inn, Tom Morris Bar and Grill, etc. Trains station to Edinburgh is 15 min away. Short drive to Kingsbarns and Carnoustie. The views and images on the website are even better in person. Setting is peaceful and tranquil even though you are truly close to everything. This was my bucket list trip and now I need another bucket so that we can return to this lovely townhouse.

This trip to the beach house is amongst the tops of all our vacations. The magnificent view towards the castle and the ocean really inspires one to think of all the people that have passed the front of the house over many centuries. The location is ideal, not in the middle of the commercial district but a short 5-10 minute walk to very good restaurants and historic bars where the walls are virtually all the greats golfers who have played here. The Old Course pavillion is a 13 minute walk away. A place where one would need to go to if you have a tee time but also to watch the players tee off or come back on the 18th green. This is great entertainment! The appliances and bathroom fixtures are new and high quality. We cooked some great dinners. Most importantly we Ann and Fraser, our host was very attentive and pleasant to communicate. We will definitely come back. Thank you so much.

What a gorgeous flat overlooking the Castle and right in town with easy walk to everything! Interior is new and modern and very comfortable for family time. Cannot say enough good things about the flat and the very communicative and responsive hosts. Terrific stay!
