Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities

No working wifi, no mobile service in the area, no working TV, no toilet paper or paper of any kind, beds were pretty bad, lots of spiders, bare bones accommodation with the absolute worst showers and primitive heating, no a/c. It's a lot like camping. There was nothing for guests (like tea bags or bottles of water to welcome guests). They did send someone to fix wifi but honestly it was pretty rough and we had to go in town to get connected to wifi. I would not recommend as a holiday for more than two or three people. Literally half roll of toilet paper for 3 of us for 4 nights with no nearby shop to buy some (which should not be necessary to do.)

Lovely, clean cottage with ample room, a well-equipped kitchen and lovely views. Bus to town.

It's important to say right up front that this apartment requires a rental car, taxi, or bus, as it is 2mi outside St Andrew's. My daughter and I figured the bus out within the first day (it comes hourly, and in a very timely way). But if you're thinking of an in-town experience, you might want to stay elsewhere. And bring a flashlight at night, to light your way from the bus stop to the light outside the cottage. The property (attached to three other cottages) is just lovely. As noted above, there is amble room both inside and out; the apartment is light and airy, and there's a beautiful backyard with picnic table. All was very clean and tidy. In terms of kitchen and linens, the equipment and supplies were quite adequate, if not special. It would have been nice to have a couple of extra accents (e.g., a blanket for the living room couches, an extra towel or two, or a few kitchen staples that we have had elsewhere, like sugar) . But definitely all was adequate for our needs. Also, the staff came right away to check on a "stuck lock" on our door; very responsive. We definitely would stay there again (unless we really want or need to be right in town.).Thank you!!
