You won’t find a better location to stay in St Andrews. 150 yards from Old Course 18 green. Ocean view was amazing. 2 king bed and 2 master baths was a perfect set up. When I return to St Andrews I won’t be staying anywhere but here.

Perfect Location

Ideal location, within walking distance to everything you need. Great amenities and tons of space to host dinner with friends. Heated Floors and towel racks along with amenities made it feel like a luxury stay. This is a great rental, I would definitely book again.

This is an excellent apartment, ideally located on The Scores with sea views and a view of The Royal And Ancient Club House. Well appointed and stocked kitchen and en-suites. Lovely underfloor heating. Faultless really. Maybe a second key would be useful for sharing couples.
