Looking to rent a vacation house in St Andrews, the Home of Golf?
The Vintage... A 2-iron away from the 1st tee of the Old Course.
The ideal self-catering vacation rental accommodation in the heart of St Andrews, Scotland.
Located within the Conservation area of St Andrews and surrounded by historic houses, just 200 yards from the Old Course and the Royal and Ancient Golf Club, 100 yards from the seafront and close to the ruins of the Castle and the centre of town.
The Vintage is a delightful, free-standing, fully renovated, three bedroom house for rent with a large conservatory, offering 130 square meters of comfortable living space including a fully equipped kitchen, living room, and two bathrooms.
The house has a distinct homely feel about it with natural wood finishes, parquet flooring and a contemporary interior design.

With no direct access for cars, (Gillespie Wynd connects the seafront Scores with North Street and offers access only to pedestrians) the only noise one hears is the wind and the occasional seagull flying overhead.

October 2009 Hi Christian, Everything was great, you have great place and will highly recommend it to any of my friends who are visiting. It's a great place and the golf DVDs are awesome! The only thing was that we could not dial out (or we did not know how to). Thanks, Rick

October 2009 Dear Christian, Thank you very much for the use of your house in St Andrews a couple of weekends ago, it was ideal for our needs. We all actually attended St Andrews university many years ago, so it was good to return. I have no suggestions for how to improve the house as it is very well suited in it's current form, however, I would say that it was hard to find out about the property on the internet and I would consider using another website which may bring you more visitors. Best regards, Ben
