About this property

Luxury cottage in countryside setting near to St Andrews perfect for golfers

We converted our stables in2017 and it has been finished and equipped to a high standard offering great accommodation to golfers, families and anyone seeking a quiet country retreat. There is access to the courtyard garden with its Mediterranean feel where there is a hot tub exclusively for the use of guests at the Stables Cottage. We also have 15 acres of fields and woodland that guests can walk through or picnic in. St Andrews is a 10 minute drive away and Cupar railway station giving direct trains to Edinburgh (1hour), Dundee and Aberdeen is 5 minutes drive away. The new V and A opened in Dundee on 15 September 2018.
St Andrews of course offers great golf, beautiful beaches and wonderful restaurants as well as the historic university.If you were fans of The Crown or Outlander you will have access to the Scotland they portray Within an hour’s drive. There are 3 bedrooms 2 of which are ensuite one with a roll top bath, the other with a shower room and there is a third shower room with disabled access.The bedrooms all have super king beds which can be split into singles if required. The beds have luxury mattress toppers with White Company bed linen. There are also White Company towels and bathrobes. There are beach towels for hot tub use. The main living area is open plan with a well equipped kitchen, dining table and sitting room with smart television with free view box. There is internet access.
There is access to an enclosed archway where guests can enjoy drinks or coffee with a view of the courtyard garden. Most of our guests comment on the cottage being so much more than they expected and how they enjoy the peaceful setting. It is also popular because it is well situated not only for St Andrews golf courses but also Carnoustie and Gleneagles. It can be rented along with the Hayshed Cottage by larger groups.

Clean, Well-Located Property with Amiable Hosts
The property is well-situated and close to nearby golf courses and beaches. We would definitely return, in large part due to the family friendly and well-considered amenities provided to guests in the property and on the grounds.

Girls weekend Away
This is a lovely cosy property and ideal for 6 adults. We had everything we needed and we were all very comfortable. The beds were amazing with lovely bed linen and good quality pillows. The hot tub was amazing and very easy to use. Fluffy bathrobes and pool towels supplied. Sue and Douglas were great hosts. I would definitely recommend this property to friends and would happily stay again,

About the host

Hosted by Susan Williams

Host profile image
We are both Scottish from Aberdeen and Troon. We are both retired solicitors. We have lived at Balass since 1986 when we were married. we brought up our two sons here. We enjoy all types of sport but we have a real interest in our garden. We started the garden in the courtyard about 10 years ago. It has a Mediterranean feel and the cottage faces onto the courtyard.

Why they chose this property

This is the ideal location if you are a golfer as it is not only within easy reach of the many St Andrews couurses but also within reach of Carnoustie and Gleneagles.
Our own house is adjacent to the cottage. we developed the stables and hayshed when we stopped keeping horses. It was completed in 2017. The buildings are B listed so the development compliments the original Georgian style.The original part of the house was built in 1813.

What makes this property unique

Luxury finish, access to wonderful garden, hot tub available to guests. We fell in love with a run down farm house 30 odd years ago and have spent years improving it and now developed something that others can share.
