Dove Apartment Holiday

Location! Location! LOCATION!! Couldn’t get any better. Footsteps to St Andrews Cathedral ruins. South has everything: morning coffee cafe-Zest lovely, affordable, Italian bistro right next door-Zizi two blocks from my favorite Scottish shoe store: Robertson’s. Also very important, a wonderful, hot shower after completing 22,000 steps is most welcome I spent 10 days at Priorsgate, Dove apartment. Beds are lumpy and a bit hard. Pillows are awful. I could live with the beds, but pillows really need to be replaced.

St Andrews Golfing Holiday

Being a St Leonards alumna, I was keen to stay in Priorsgate. The Dove apartment was perfect ground floor and easy access for suitcases and clubs. I was concerned about parking, but we managed to get a spot each evening. The appartment was clean and comfortable and an easy walk into the town centre. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return. A couple of things to maybe consider: Washing machine detergent - 2 were not enough when travelling and needing to catch up on laundry - maybe 1 per day. Housekeeping check: no salt, no foil, no spare kitchen roll Extra utensils: no tongs, maybe an extra larger frying pan could be considered.
