We Keep Coming Back

We have been coming for many years. It is cosy and quiet and caters for our two dogs. It has spectacular views over golf courses to the sea. Some appliances have been upgraded with new heating system. The patio key needs to be replaced (slightly bent) and some new pots and pans would be a bonus. A little pricey at certain times of the year.

We had the best time!

This is a perfect cottage, only a 5 min drive from St Andrews but so peaceful, with fantastic sea views from the living room and master bedroom, across the links. We loved the large enclosed garden which meant our dogs could exercise safely. Perfect for anyone with mobility issues as everything is on ground level, no steps and open plan living area. It was clean, cosy and modern. We mainly ate at home and the cottage had everything we needed. We had a little difficulty finding it on arrival as it was dark and our SatNav directed us to the opposite side of the road.

Lovely accommodation in a tranquil setting

The second time we have stayed in this beautiful place. Quiet and relaxing, accommodation is well-maintained and has all you need for a short stay. A drive into St Andrews and on the road to Crail, so makes it the perfect place.

Excellent short break

This was a lovely property with a really extraordinary view, and we had a great stay. The only drawback was the state of the rugs in the living room and bedroom - these really did not look clean (it would be hard to keep shagpile clean), and we had to store these out of the way during the stay. The sofa cushions also seemed rather tired. Otherwise everything was excellent, many thanks.
