About this property

Modern Cottage, superb views, near St Andrews

The cottage is ideally situated in Lucklawhill, between St Andrews and Dundee, approximately 7 miles from each. The front of the house offering stunning panoramic views over the Firth of Tay and St Andrews Bay; the other side providing access to quiet woodland and country walks.
Full spacious property available comprising two large double bedrooms, modern open lounge area, dining room, well furnished kitchen, shower room and WC. Two further beds available in loft conversion if required.
North East Fife offers a great variety of pursuits for holiday makers and visitors. For golfers worldwide, St Andrews is the Home of Golf – a place they must visit at some time in their life. However, the seven public courses of St Andrews represent only a few of the many excellent courses to be found within a short ‘drive’.
Apart from golf, the ancient town of St Andrews is steeped in history, having the oldest university in Scotland, and its large medieval cathedral dating back to the 12th century.
For others, the attraction is in the miles of unspoilt beaches, woodlands and peaceful countryside , where they can fish, hike, cycle or generally just explore, freely and uninterrupted.
New Lulgate is ideally situated near the top of Lucklawhill, between St Andrews and Dundee, approximately 7 miles from each. The front of the house offering stunning panoramic views over the Firth of Tay and St Andrews Bay; the other side providing access to quiet woodland and country walks.
Although attached to the main property, the cottage sits in its own private and spacious gardens. It is completely self-contained and comfortably furnished, with all the necessities required for a self-catering holiday.
Accommodation consists of 2 large double bedrooms – each with two single beds. Each room has built in wardrobes and plenty of storage space. If really required there are two further single beds in an upstairs loft conversion - via a Ramsey ladder for the more agile!
There is a large open lounge area with gas fireplace, opening out to the conservatory with its superb views. The kitchen is spacious and well equipped. There is also a separate dining room, and an area has been set out as a possible workplace for those who cannot ‘leave their work at home’. Wifi is accessible. The large shower room is well-fitted with a modern suite comprising double shower cubicle, W.C., sink and bidet, and another W.C. is also available.
Guests have full access to the cottage and the surrounding gardens.

PERFECT PEACEFUL GETAWAY.

Excellent property with all you need for a peaceful break.Lovely views and great facilities.Communication with owners is great and we had all the details needed to easily find the place and make ourself at home for the couple days.So quiet and just enough out the way to feel away from it all but not miles into the hills.We were also greated with a bottle of wine along with milk cheese and breads, that was very kind of the owners to do.Would recommend this place to friends and family, and definitely book again..

Wonderful!!

We had the absolute best stay here! Gorgeous views! Comfortable home with everything you need! They even stocked essential groceries so we didn’t have to rush to the grocery store. It was so nice and peaceful to stay here, cook, and enjoy the beauty of St Andrew’s after a long day on the golf course. Highly recommend and plan to return on day! Thank you for a wonderful visit!

Idyllic Winter Getaway

An underrated property that offers breathtaking views and a cosy convenient getaway in the wintertime. We enjoyed the panoramic vistas while we sipped our coffees in the morning, and a cup of hot chocolate around the firepit with the sunset. I almost hesitate to write a review because this stay was such a hidden gem it is torture to spill the beans!! Will certainly be back!
