This is the gold standard for B&Bs. Mark and Jeni are wonderful hosts and the house is nicely decorated and furnished. The breakfast was delicious, and we had so many choices! We would recommend this B&B to anyone staying near St. Andrews. There are stairs to the rooms, as is the case in most B&Bs and hotels in Scotland, so since we had a car, we pack a small weekend bag, so we don't have to carry heavy suitcases up and down. Thank you Mark and Jeni for a wonderful stay!

Excellent guest house

The spindrift guest house is excellent you get met at the door by the hosts Mark and Jeni, who make you feel so welcome like your part of the family. They show you around the breakfast room and the lounge . The rooms are big and comfy thw whole place is spotless. Breakfast is amazing and you pick what you want from a changing menu daily which is finished off with homade loaf from Jeni we had banana loaf this morning which was still warm. Nothing is to much trouble for the hosts i would recommend a visit here and we will be back next year.

A little Jewel of a bed and breakfast near St Andr

Jenni and Mark are excellent hosts! Accommodations we're fantastic there were real American size king size beds in the rooms not the usual Scottish/ Irish little tiny king beds. The bathrooms were very modern the room was spacious the breakfast was fabulous they pretty much cook you anything you want from a full Scottish breakfast with eggs and ham and sausage and haggis to all kinds of pastries and cold cereals. They gave excellent recommendations for dinner in the area that were very walkable. They couldn't be better hosts in the bed and breakfast couldn't be in better condition!

This is a lovely B&B very conveniently located within walking distance to town where there are cute shops and very nice dining options. Our room was large and very nicely appointed with high-quality furniture and antiques. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. Jennifer and Mark are wonderful people who truly care about their guests. Highly recommended!

This is a lovely B&B. Our room was spacious, beautifully appointed and immaculate. Breakfast was delicious and expertly prepared. The property is a short walk into town where there are plenty of dining options and cute shops. We took the boat trip to the Isle of May (highly recommended). The Fife hiking trail is steps away. If we ever get back this way, there is no question where we will stay!

My wife and I loved staying at the Spindrift. The property was very well maintained and it was conveniently located in Anstruther. The breakfasts were great and our hosts were exceptional in everything. They provided information about local transportation, driving routes, and evening dining. They even facilitated dinner reservations for us when we couldn't find a spot for dinner. I recommend staying at the Spindrift for all who want to have a truly great B&B experience.
