Booked this place after all the recommendations from friends and we weren't disappointed. We had a long weekend here for my mother's 70th birthday. The views are absolutely stunning, in a good location about 15 minutes drive from St Andrews. The owners did an Indian food night with a fire pit on our arrival which was really nice and drinks at there outside bar too. There is a nice size swimming pool with Sauna/Steam Room and an indoor activities area with a full size tennis court, gymnasium and snooker table. Also at the back is a large games area for pool, table tennis and table top football. The owners and staff were really accomodatong and the villa we were in was absolutely stunning and really well kept with plenty of utensils, glasses, cooking appliances to use. Each room was ensuite which was great for us being 3 groups in our family. We had a great tike and lots of good memories here now, look forward to coming back again, maybe for a longer time. …

I've lost count of the number of times we've been to Pitmilly now, whether that's been as a couple like this trip (+ dog!) or with family or with friends. The welcome you get is second to none and the little touches (dog treats, a tennis ball & poo bags!) were fantastic on this visit. Over the years we've been coming there's new features added such as pop-up catering and bar / breakfast; hammocks; and dog activity area. The houses are clean and well maintained and if you love walking the trails around the resort are plentiful. Our next booking is already made!

Another 5 days of tranquility at Morton of Pitmilly. We stayed in The Rowans, which has more than ample space for our extended family. We made good use of the indoor tennis and games facilities this time to compensate for the mixed weather. The Wednesday night burgers are, according to the burger authorities in our family, the bext on the planet.

Had the most incredible break. Bramble Bank was absolutely gorgeous and the kitchen had everything you could possibly need. The views were spectacular and we had the opportunity to explore everything at the resort. Was immaculate and dog friendly, even got a doggy pack with a ball, doggy treats and poop bags. The dogs loved the doggy park as well as the beautiful walks around the resort. Had the pool to ourselves, as well as the sports centre and gym. The staff could not have been more helpful and kind. They had a Mexican night with fantastic food, fire pits lit as it was chilly and the food was excellent. Just a short drive into St. Andrews and Kingsbarns where we went to the beach. The only downside was that we had to come home, it was so relaxing and would have loved to have had another week there. …

Lovely location, lovely accommodation, lovely stay. Ideal for dog owners and families. Lots of fun to be had and warm cosy cottage with plenty of room for adults and 2 large dogs. The walks around the farm are fantastic - well thought out and maintained.

The accommodation was fantastic. The villa was well laid out with a very large living space. The kitchen was well equipped and the setting was gorgeous. An extended-family break was made more special by the location. Would definitely recommend without any hesitation.

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. Our family and friends booked the entire location for five days for my son's midweek wedding. It couldn't have gone better. The staff were amazing, so friendly and helpful. The location gorgeous. There's not a single negative or even constructive comment that I can think of. Brilliant it was from start to finish.

The Morton of Pitmilly is a unique and special place to stay. The rooms, amenities and staff provided a fabulous venue for a wedding and we couldn't have asked for a better location to sever as a base to explore the region.
