Perfect and beautiful for us needing 3 bedrooms. Luxurious with 3 1/2 bathroom spaces.

It was a simply beautiful location and organised cottage to stay in. My husband was recovering from open heart bypass surgery, and so he didn’t explore St Andrews with us, but enjoyed the relaxing home and view to rest in while the other 4 in our party explored St Andrews. He really enjoyed the walk to the beach and also the walk to the main road. The directions to find the place were excellent. The kitchen was spacious and our USA visitors did a chef standard breakfast, and worked well in the that lovely kitchen. Our group was also musical and it was lovely to have the piano to use.

The only suggestion is that there was no heating during the day which was a bit hard on the one staying all day. However, he did enjoy using the open fire place in the living room.
