    It's a small point and one that likely cannot be changed, but if there were a small lounge for guests in addition to the breakfast room that would have been especially lovely.

    The location is ideal for anything you might like to do in St. Andrew's. Walking distance to everything. Surprisingly easy on-street or lot parking. Staff is fantastic. Room was clean and crisp.

    The location was good as it was near the sea and lots of cafes and restaurants within walking distance. We managed to get free parking very close to the property. The owner was fantastic, very friendly and welcoming.

    Great location for both the old course, beach and into the town. Scott was a lovely host, very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was also delicious, there was a nice selection of cereal, yoghurt and fruit as well as freshly made toast and a menu to choose hot food from which was all cooked to order. The room and bathroom were both spotless as well.

    I think the price for room only is too much but it's to be expected in St Andrews which is expensive.

    Comfortable room with extra touch like ear plugs to block out noise of seagulls. Good location close to west beach and short walk to centre. Easy self check in and out. I didn't meet the owners or any staff but they called in advance with instructions for check in and you could call if any problems.
