Great location and lots of space

Great place to have a family stay. We were all comfortable. Great bathrooms and bedrooms. Front entry looked pretty trashy to start but inside was decent

Great location and home

This property was extremely convenient to the downtown/commercial area of St Andrews and to the golf courses. We were able to easily walk to everything. It’s also a very nice home with a great kitchen and sitting room. We highly recommend it for a stay.

The location was the main factor in booking but once we arrived we realised so much more , great facilities and slept 8 adults easily. Not anything to be honest , every need was taking care of.

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We're delighted to hear that the location caught your eye and that the facilities and space comfortably accommodated your group of eight. It’s great to know that all your needs were well taken care of. We hope to welcome you and your group back again soon! Kind regards, Short Stay St Andrews

Amazing location and beautiful place!

I stayed here in a group of 8 and it felt like more than enough room for us all. Beautiful living space and beautiful kitchen as hang out areas. The four bedrooms and three bathrooms worked very well. The only downfalls were steep cases for hauling luggage up and down, and if you are a light sleeper then bring ear plugs and a eye mask as seagulls are 24/7 and the curtains are not blackout, which are totally fine if you want to seize the day in the amazing St. Andrew’s!!
