Golf Cottage

Place was great. Clean, great location with comfortable bedrooms. We did have a little trouble finding the place. The address needs to read on North St. Would recommend to anyone.We didn’t use kitchen, but was available. Didn’t see a refrigerator, but we didn’t need it.

Wee cottage has everything you need

We came from the US to play golf at St. Andrews. This cottage was perfectly located for this. Central to everything. It was great to have laundry and a fridge to supplement eating out and all of our r activities.

Ideal!

Great location, seriously, it was ideal. My husband and I stayed here with my 82-year-old (active & feisty MIL). It was the perfect space to have both private bedrooms/ baths and a common kitchen-living room. Absolutely spotless and comfortable.

Golf Cottage

This was a really great place to stay for a golf vacation at St Andrews. You arrive in town, park your car at one of the designated sites and walk to the courses. Very short walks; 30 seconds to three minutes at most.
