A beautifully renovated historic townhouse the sleeps 10 guests in 6 bedrooms
Sleeps ten - A wonderful 4 storey historic townhouse in the heart of St Andrews which has been tastefully renovated and refurbished over recent months. The end result is a fabulous property full of original features and traditional details but fully equipped for modern living.
The house lies towards the eastern end of South Street close to the historic cathedral and surrounded by many properties still occupied by the University. At this point South Street is a wide tree-lined boulevard with generous pavements and an almost continental feel. All that the town centre has to offer by way of shops, bars and restaurants is only a few steps away but despite that the house is located in a more tranquil part of the town centre.
There is a generous living room and separate dining room on the first floor with both rooms overlooking South Street and also on this floor is the beautifully refitted kitchen. The rooms on the first floor make wonderful use of the original exposed stone walls.
On the second and third floors the sleeping accommodation is extremely flexible with 4 double bedrooms that can either be super king size or twin bedded and two further single bedrooms, one bedroom has an en-suite shower room and there are two further shower rooms.
On the ground floor there is a generous entrance hall with a golf club storage area and through the utility area there is access to an outside courtyard area with seating.
This is a very special house for your special trip to St Andrews.

Excellent townhouse, right in the centre of St Andrews, shops and restaurants within walking distance. The house was spacious and perfect for our family with 3 young children and 2 teenagers. Kitchen well equipped ( although the microwave needs fixing - the control knob is faulty). A lovely family long weekend away.
Had a fantastic few days using the house as a base for our golfing trip.
8 golfers with loads of room. House was beautiful, very warm. Every facility that we needed was there.
3 excellent bathrooms and the owner with an early check it which was fantastic
A 6-man golfing group from Australia enjoyed a 2 week stay. Individual bedrooms, plenty of bathrooms and expansive kitchen and lounge made for a great experience. Close to the centre of town and restaurants, not to mention the gelati shop!
The group would have liked to book for the same time next year, but it has already been taken!
From the start of the booking process, everything was so easy and communication was quick and helpful. The house itself is so lovely and comfortable and had lots of thoughtful touches. Any queries we had were dealt with instantly. The location is perfect, so central yet quiet. I would thoroughly recommend staying here. Thank you.
We had a fantastic week here. Lovely accomodation in a perfect location for walks on the beach and easy access to plenty of nice shops and eateries. We loved the bookshop.
It was such an easy process from the booking to writing this review...the property is amazing. We as a group have stayed in St Andrews many times and this has been the best. The property is as per the profile. The communication was very fast and accurate. Absolute best location for food drinks and of course...GOLF!
We will certainly be back to stay again.
Wir hatten mit 8 Personen einen tollen Aufenthalt in St. Andrews. Die Unterkunft hatte eine super Lage und war sehr gut ausgestattet. Gerne jederzeit wieder!
Clean, spacious, great hosts, would book again in a heartbeat. We had a foursome of golfers, and then the girls with a little guy and the stay was perfect for our group. Having Sainsburys down Bakers lane and everything in walking distance made the stay most enjoyable. Thank you so much!
