Liked: Cleanliness
The home was very clean and well set up for everything we wanted to do - relax, cook a few meals, and explore St Andrews. The beds were very comfortable. Alan, the host, was proactive in reaching out before we arrived and responded promptly when we had a question about the process for departing. We did find the tub/shower very deep to get into and out of, so made use of the broad step that was provided. We would definitely recommend the property.

Very comfortable, quiet, and convenient home right on a free roam trail that connects to the Lade Brae garden trail to town. A big grocery store and bus station about one block away. No need for a car in St. Andrews. The owner was very responsive to questions. Would definitely rent again! Only one suggestion: the house needs a serrated bread knife to slice the beautiful bakery loaves at the Morrison grocery store.

Golf trip

Great spot for a base for a few days for my son and me to play golf in the area. Excellent location for quick access to city centre and St Andrews golf courses. Grocery store a block away.

Charming house in St. Andrews

This house was perfect for our family. We traveled around Fife for multiple days of golf and, this location was perfect!! My husband, adult son, and myself enjoyed all the well stocked amenities in the home. The backyard garden was beautiful. The photos are very accurate and the host was so fast with his communication with us! I would recommend, and I would choose to stay here again if I ever had the chance.

Welcoming

Lovely and quiet neighborhood close to several grocery stores. Bus stop is close but we usually walked into the heart of the town for sightseeing and errands. I was with my son starting at university. We took a taxi to the residence hall on the day he moved in.

Great stay

Hope to visit again. The property is in a quiet neighborhood and very close to a grocery store. It is more than a mile out if town, so be prepared for a 15-20 minute walk to the town center. There are very convinient bus stops for buses around town and even to Dundee. The owner was super responsive to communications.
