Everything about this place is wonderful…the location, the layout, furnishings, and especially Adam, the host. He went above and beyond to ensure that we had a great stay in St. Andrews. I wish every VRBO was up to this standard!
Excellent location convenient for walking to restaurants, grocery, and shops. Clean modern flat with plenty of amenities. Garage space for the car was a nice addition. Would recommend for location and cleanliness.
Everything was great. Exactly as promised and as shown in the pictures. Parking in a covered garage. Very safe place. Walking distance to the centre of town.
Security overload. Host apologetic. Accommodation very nice. Weather in St Andrews absolutely appalling. Wet , windy and miserable from the moment we arrived till departure. Total waste of money. Obviously not the apartment’s fault, probably ours for attempting a break in February in Scotland. Never again.

Response from VrboOwner on 19 February 2026
Thanks for the feedback Alan. Disappointed to hear you did not enjoy your trip. Whilst we can control some things, the weather is not one of them. Given you enjoyed the accommodation, your review is perhaps a little harsh. In light of all our other reviews, I hope you would accept that your experience was an outlier. All the best for your future trips.
We were extremely pleased with our stay! The location was fantastic, super convenient, we walked everywhere. The owner (Adam) was very responsive and helpful. His instructions about the place are probably the best we’ve ever gotten. We would absolutely stay here again and would highly recommend to others!
Visiting our son at university and enjoying St Andrews
Top notch in all aspects from the park views to kitchen and bathrooms to location and hospitality. Peaceful with birds and flowering trees but just a short walk to downtown. Our family will be visiting again and booking this apartment without a doubt.
Fabulous property of great quality. Immaculately presented. Perfect location for everywhere in St Andrews. Great parking off road. Super peaceful and lovely views over park. Everything you could ask for provided. Comfy beds and excellent bathrooms with hot water and great showers. Couldn’t fault this flat and highly recommend.
Although this flat is small it was vey comfortable and in a great area. Very quiet looking onto a park and within an easy 10 minute walk to the centre of St Andrews.
Everything exceeded our expectations. The location was great and the condo was fabulous. Be careful to carefully follow check-in instructions provided. It’s a little tricky getting in the first time and Apple Maps took us to an alley that was a little trick to navigate.
Fantastic stay in a fantastic apartment. Everything was great. Very clear instructions on how to enter the apartment. Very clean apartment with everything that you would need for a great stay. It had a very homely feel to it down to sheets and towels all smelling so clean as if I was at home. Would highly recommend.
The location was walking distance to The Old Coarse and restaurants. The property was exceptional. All the furnishings were first class. Beds and linens comfy. Shower wonderful. I will book this place on my next trip.
Apartment was spotless. Absolutely perfect place to spend your time in St. Andrews. Could not have been better.

About the host
Hosted by Adam Forbes
Our family purchased an apartment called the Bolthole in the heart of St Andrews several years back for use by all the family and to share with visitors to the town. It has been a great success (standrewsbolthole.com) as the reviews will testify.
When we saw this unique second property for sale, which had the benefit of both central location to ensure St Andrews could be explored by foot but also the convenience of dedicated parking, we couldn't resist.
This property is now run and managed independently by our son Adam.
We try to offer maximum flexibility with arrival/departure - a small key store is located outside allowing access to the keys at your convenience.
Adam stays a little over an hour away in Edinburgh.
All going smoothly, everything in the property should be self explanatory or contained in the information booklet. However, should there be any queries or problems we can be contacted 24 hrs a day and there is a lady in St Andrews available on call to sort out any problems requiring immediate assistance.
Why they chose this property
Our family and guests enjoy the property because of its close proximity to the heart of St Andrews but yet with its own dedicated parking combined with the benefits of being both modern and luxurious.
What makes this property unique
The property has all the latest technology - high speed fibre broadband, 4G HDR Ultra TV with Netflix, Amazon, Voice activated sound system and fully equipped kitchen. But the real special feature of the property is the bright sunny south facing aspect flooding the property with open views of the park and immediate access to the historic Lade Brae walk - these can be enjoyed on foot or by borrowing the owners 2 bikes, including a modern e-bike to help you up the hills! The quality of the finish testifies to this being our own family get-away rather than a stark commercial economic proposition.
