Great B&B!

Excellent place to stay! Very friendly hostess (Anne) who made us feel right at home. Spotless room (& house for that matter), and everything worked as it should. Great breakfast with fresh duck eggs and 3 types of sausage! Location was OK being only about 15-20 minutes from Saint Andrews, but be prepared for some typically Scottish skinny roads/lanes on the way there.
The ducks responsible for our breakfast eggs? Possibly 🙂

Picturesque stay on the coast of Scotland

Absolutely wonderful stay at Balhousie B&B! Rooms were cosy and the views were lovely! Our host Anne was very welcoming and made sure we were well looked after! The breakfast was delicious; especially the duck eggs from their own ducks! I would definitely come and stay again! The photo is the view from the bedroom window.

Why assume that there was something unique about the property? Why assume that there was something I did not like? Advise you to drop this superfluous box from your sequence.

Beatiful Balhousie Farm

This was a great way to spend one of our last nights in Scotland and honestly wish we could have had more than one night. The farm is on a beautiful, secluded property and very quiet and serene, complete with ducks on a pond. The room was comfortable and homely and the breakfast delicious. The hostess was a lovely lady and made us feel very welcome. There was a local pub/hotel about 10 minutes drive away where we had a great meal.

Perfect base for Carnoustie and St Andrews.

Stayed here with my dad for our trip to The Open at Carnoustie, owner was extremely friendly and helpful. Was prepared to go out of her way to accommodate our early departures with breakfast. Highly recommend this B&B, its in a lovely tranquil setting which would be brilliant for walking. Will definitely return if/when I next visit the area for the Open, it's perfect for Carnoustie and St Andrews.
