A fantastic property, very comfortable great location, open the door to stunning views.Excellent communication with the property manager, couldn’t recommend it highly enough.Thank you Steve
Flat was just as described, and hosts were very helpful. The location was perfect, with easy access to golf, beach, and restaurants. A great find! You won't be disappointed.
the property could not have been better. The location was to die for. We would definitely stay here again if we get the opportunity to get back to St Andrews!
My adult son and I stayed for one week while I was at the university. The apartment is extremely well set-up and in an ideal location for me to walk to my programme and for my son to explore St Andrews and the surrounding area.
This was the 2nd time we've stayed at this flat. A prior review quoted it was 55 steps to the Royal and Ancient. He was correct! For golfers this location cannot be beat.The flat is clean with very comfortable beds. Washer/dryer is a bonus because you can pack less clothes.Highly recommend this flat and owners are always helpful with any questions.
This is my 3rd time staying at this location. It has been consistently clean, warm, and well stocked. Hope to return soon.

About the host
Hosted by Siggy and Hilary Mensah
We bought 3C Gillespie Terrace back in the 1990s and have spent many happy times here as well as renting it out for holiday lets.
Why they chose this property
We have been coming to St Andrews over many years since the 1990s and absolutely love it here. It's become our relaxing retreat. We can park the car free on the road, forget it, and stroll into the town centre, a couple of streets away, or walk for miles along the West Sands - can't beat it!
What makes this property unique
Fantastic location with everything on the doorstep. The R&A and Old Course are at the end of the road, the West Sands just beyond, the Aquarium & Rock pools just opposite. Quiet, comfortable & bright apartment.
