Murray Library Hostel features free WiFi throughout the property and views of sea in Anstruther. The property is around 14 km from St Andrews Bay, 15 km from St Andrews University and 37 km from Discovery Point. The property is non-smoking and is situated a few steps from Billow Ness Beach.

A cosy, accommodating hostel, in an old building brimming w/personality! Excellently located. Woke up to the sound of waves slowly crashing up against the shore. The kitchen was well-equipped and spacious, the toilets and showers were clean and well-maintained. The bed was delightfully comfortable, and the hostel itself was inviting, charming, and wonderful. Darius was friendly, prompt, and professional. My stay in Anstruther was excellent thanks to the lovely Murray Library Hostel :-)

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Darius was an excellent manager. Could not have been more friendly and helpful and always seemed to be around when we needed him. Great guy! The hostel is in a great location and we had a lovely sea view from our room. The kitchen was well equipped, spacious and very clean. We came to buy seafood and cook ourselves meals; this was very easy to do in this kitchen.

    Great location, comfortable room with sea view, comfy shared lounge and practical kitchen for making coffee, breakfast, dinner or eating takeaway fish from the Wee chippy next door which does the best GF fish & chips ever! The host is friendly. It's a cut well above what you might think of as a hostel.

    Perfect location and stunning views. Very friendly helpful guy who runs the place (sorry I forgot his name). Relaxed but safe, room very comfy and bright, kitchen well equipped. Beautiful place, more of a boutique hostel, quiet and tranquil. Close to everything.
