In spite that I left the hotel as early as 5:30, owners got up very early to prepare nice breakfast to goo enough to enjoy golf at St Andrews on the morning. Cats are lovely.

This was my second visit, Julie the landlady is great, everything you could need is provided, from tissues to extra blankies and more. Her breakfasts are almost belly busting, a great selection, including homemade jams. It's a home away from home, for me especially, she has two beautiful cats, so I don't get homesick 😀. Great place to stay, clean and quiet, 10 mins from both bus/train stations and 10 mins from the beach. If you get her Blue room, technically you get a seaview too 😀. I can't wait for my next visit.

The owners Julie and Richard are the most wonderful hosts! The room we had was so comfortable, clean and had everything we needed. Breakfast was amazing and loved Julie’s homemade jams. We bought three to take home! Julie’s homemade shortbread was to die for! Also, both Julie and Richard went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable and that our needs were met! We are only sad we couldn’t stay more than one night!
