Perfect St. Andrews Location

First class experience for our entire family celebrating a graduation. We couldn't have asked for anything more. The flat was perfect and the outdoor patio was a special gathering spot. We were located a few minutes walk from everything in town as well as the special views overlooking the ocean as the sun set. Thank you for making this a memorable time for our family.

family get together

This house was perfect for us. We had a wedding in St Andrews and we all love the location. As each bedroom has its own bathroom, my elderly mother, my two sons and their wives, and me and my husband were able to enjoy each other in the large living/kitchen area and have our own privacy in our bedrooms. The house is located within walking distance of everything, so you can come and go without worry of a car. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay at Burness House again.

A true Gem

We loved staying at Abbostford! The house had more than enough room for our family of 5. It was beautifully decorated and very cozy. The location was fantastic and our boys loved being able to walk to golf every morning as well as restaurants and pubs in the afternoon/evening. Fiona and Lynne were easily reached and communicated very clearly when we had questions. We were particularly impressed with all the attention to details. There were fresh flowers in a few rooms as well as a welcome basket of food and even a partially stocked refrigerator with breakfast items! We plan on coming back to St Andrews and would definitely stay at this property again if it is available! Thank you Fiona and Lynne for such a memorable stay!

8 Golfers Sharing 1 House

Since there are very few reviews of this house I was a little concerned that it was not a legitimate listing, but took the chance to book and prepay and we were very pleased. The 4 bedrooms with 8 twin beds and 5 bathrooms were perfect for our group of 8 golfers. All of the beds were very comfortable and there was always hot water no matter what your shower schedule. The ground floor contains the cozy living room/lounge with just enough room for all of us to sit and talk or watch the lone TV in the house. To me, having only 1 TV is ideal. That means that you can always get away from it if you want. The kitchen is also cozy, with a large table and 8 chairs. It's stocked with more than enough plates, cutlery, glassware, and pots and pans. We cooked dinner in 1 night with no problems. That also then made the dishwasher appreciated. Our golf was enjoyed through 7 days of rain, so the washer/dryer got a lot of use as well. We had two vans, and with a little help from a fellow golfer I was able to gingerly navigate the driveway into the parking area. Our second van was a little larger and that driver chose not to park by the house, but found a free parking lot right across the street. The best part of the house is the location. You can walk anywhere you want in the small town of St. Andrews. The 18th green of the Old Course is less than a 5 minute walk away, and the 3 main streets of St. Andrews are within easy walking distance with the Tesco grocery store about 5 minutes away. Fiona Clark was very easy to communicate with, always returning emails within a few days. I do wish that she would take credit cards, Paypal, or HomeAway payments. I had a hard time with the bank transfer, so I sent personal checks for the deposit and the final payment, still not sure that this was a legitimate listing. After the final payment was processed, Fiona Clark gave me an email address and phone number for Lynne Tait, who manages the property. She also was easy to reach by email and phone. Lynne met us at the property and showed us around, explaining how to use the appliances, etc. She even left a few food items for us to use to get started on our first day in town. Lynne was great to deal with in every regard. As the group organizer for a bunch of friends, you always hope that everyone is happy with your choices. I can guarantee that all 8 of us would book 3 Abbotsford Place again. Bob B., Downers Grove, Illinois

Great place

Location location - just excellent - had a family stay here for Graduation week and brilliant as everyone could walk around town and go back and forth from the house. The house was very well appointed with everything we needed and the beds were comfortable, hot water readily available and nice fluffy towels. Bonus of the breakfast food left on arrival which really served us well having flown in from the US. Lynne welcomed us and showed us around and pointed out some good restaurants. She arrived promptly for check out. Would recommend visiting Eden Mill distillery and brewery.
