The property was a perfect base for exploring the East Neuk of Fife. The layout of the apartment worked well for our family and was very well appointed, with everything you could need for a few days away. The sea view from the living area was lovely.

One of our favourites

Love everything about the place and love the refurb since we last visited in 2021. The furniture in the living space is much better! Just a note to say a couple of the dishes weren’t totally clean in the cupboard. Not a big deal but worth mentioning. Also could do with tumbler style glasses as only wine glasses or pint size glasses.

Thank you so much for your kind words and for returning to stay with us! We're delighted you loved the refurb and the new living space furniture — it’s great to hear the updates have made a difference. We really appreciate your helpful feedback about the glassware and will be sure to add some tumbler-style glasses for your next visit. Warm regards, The Short Stay St Andrews Team
