Great stay in St. Andrews

The Westportlea property was fantastic overall with a great location and all the amenities we needed. From the ease at check-in to the setup of the property, we enjoyed our stay. This little gem is located in a great spot with access to restaurants, bars and shopping. We just had a great time as it was a quiet area with everything our family needed. Recommend this property for sure!
