About the host
Hosted by Susan Williams
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.
