    Nothing. Nada. Nope. This was a great stay and we loved it. We walked down to the ocean each day which was just lovely.

    Our stay at Kingsbarns was everything we hoped for and more. From the delicious breakfast, to the comfortable and well stocked room, we felt really cared for staying here. The intimacy of the Inn can't be beat. We were able to chat up guests and the owners or keep to ourselves, as we wished. All the food here was excellent. All the service was excellent. We left feeling like we had a very lovely Scottish experience that we will rave about for years. Harris, the Good Boy made our stay perfect!

    Nothing other than we wanted to sneak Harris their beautiful Golden Retriever into our suitcase 😀

    Room was spacious and light and bright and very clean. Breakfast was delicious with a good selection of food. They offer dinner downstairs and it was one of the tastiest meals we’ve eaten on our holiday

    Cosy accommodation close to St Andrews & nearby beach area. The staff were particularly welcoming (Annette) and the Inn provided exceptional breakfasts & home cooked nutritious meals in the evening. A cosy bar area to relax in at the end of the day and plenty of parking. We loved our 3 day stay & would highly recommend to other travelers.

    Only a very minor point, in the room I had (room 6) it would be great if there were blackout curtains as the sun (yes sun in April) shone through from very early in the morning. It woke me but I still managed to get back off to sleep due to the comfy bed.

    The location was ideal as playing golf at Kingsbarns which was less than a mile away. The staff are so friendly and more than willing to help you out or get you anything you need. The food was exceptional, ate both breakfast and evening meal.

    I cannot find fault with this Hotel, it may lack the facilities of larger premises but more than makes up for it in the outstanding hospitality and food from the owners.

    A very comfortable and welcoming small Hotel with well appointed rooms finished to a very high standard. The breakfast is cooked to order and one of the best I have had anywhere, likewise the evening meals are of a high standard and cooked to order. The Hotel is well situated in the pretty village of Kingsbarns and makes a good base for exploring St Andrews and the East Neuk of Fife.
