3 Abbotsford was perfect for our family , 3 adult children and significant others. Plenty of room for 4 sets of golf clubs and luggage. Beds were very comfortable and home was clean. Great sleeping with fresh air from open windows.We got meat and steak pies one evening from fisher and donaldson and warmed them in the oven. Location is absolutely perfect for access to golf courses and exploring town and campus.

The warm welcome from Marek was a great start. There was plenty of space for our group of 8. Rooms, kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked. The outside patio was a great spot to close out the evening. The location was perfect, a few blocks from the Old Course. Our group had no trouble carrying our clubs the short walk there. All the shops, restaurants were a few minutes walk. At night it was peaceful. Can’t recommend this spot enough. We hope to come back again.

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.
