  • One of my favourite places in the world, the Royal and Ancient Course at St Andrews, Scotland. How brilliant is this course...incredible. And if you don't like golf, fine, St Andrews is a cool little town. I'd also recommend the Anstruther Fish Bar just down the coast a wee bit...and I don't really like fish and chips heaps, but delicious all the same. 2.4.2005

The property was very clean and in a convenient location. We had a little difficulty checking in but called the number provided and they were very helpful. The check in time and check out time were a little tight. Most properties are check in 3:00 and check out at 11:00 but this properties 4:00 and 10:00 seem a little difficult. We would have to pay for an extra hour. Also, please be aware that while we were there in July the seagulls were very loud all night long. We had a couple of very hot nights and could not keep the windows open (even shut you can still hear them all night).
