A very special place. Warm and cozy with all the modern amenities. The Coach Houses are located a short distance from St Andrews town but close enough to grocery shop, browse the shops, play a round of golf, or walk on the famous Old Course beach. Quiet and peaceful, just the place to unwind and enjoy the beautiful countryside. You can even pet and feed the family sheep. Maggie and her daughter Claire are wonderful hostesses and you can get lost in the history and even follow roads less traveled. Highly recommend and can’t wait to return.

This was our 3rd stay here… the first one being 10+ years ago. The accommodation still retains its quality and luxury. The farm is beautiful, peaceful and very private. It’s a short drive from the town centre. A special mention has to go for the comfiest duvets ever! Would definitely recommend.

Just home from another great stay at St Andrews Coach Houses. The cottages are well equipped (paticularly comfortable beds) and spotlessly clean. Maggie and family are great hosts, super helpful and welcoming! Love the peaceful location and the activity barn next door is a huge bonus when staying with kids, especially when the weather isn't so great! Hope to return for a third time soon. Thanks Maggie and team!

What a fantastic place to relax and unwind. Extremely comfortable bed, snuggly throws and gorgeous views. Décor beautiful and everything so clean, with thoughtful touches such as room sprays, tissues and toiletries. Loved feeding the sheep apple slices and watching the wide variety of wildlife from the windows. Just sitting outside and watching the world go by was bliss. Thank you Maggie and Claire for such a warm welcome and wonderful recommendations for places to visit and eat! I will definitely be back! Xx

Just returned from a weeks stay. Accommodation was very clean and comfortable. St Andrews is only a few minutes drive away and there is plenty to see and do in the area. In fact a week wasn’t long enough, went to Scone Palace, Glamis Castle and Falkland Palace, all within easy reach and are well worth a visit. Peaceful and beautiful location. Maggie is very helpful and supplied lots of tips including where to eat before we arrived and this helped greatly. Would recommend to anyone who is looking to stay in this area.

Fabulous lodges for a hen weekend. Very comfortable, clean and with everything you needed and a modern decor. Beautiful country views. Would definitely love to return. Not too far from st Andrews. These would also suit families with children as there is an activity barn onsite with some ride on toys.

Just had a five day stay at the Coach Houses St Andrews Perth. What a first class experience, the cottages are well equipped with everything you need. The cottage was of a high standard, exceptionally clean, very comfy beds. I can’t put down into words how superb the scenery is. You need to go to appreciate it for your self, you will not be disappointed. Maggie greeted us when we arrived, gave us lots of information on places to go, nothing was too much trouble for her. She is truly an exceptional lady. These was about nine very friendly sheep in the field opposite, even they had smiles on their faces. Well done Maggie and Family, we will definitely be back.

Your review did make me smile and I am so thrilled that you found me to be an "exceptional lady" I must tell my husband that one! Our sheep are a big hit with our guests ( and we love them too) and clearly love living here with their smiley faces :)

The Coach Houses are very comfortable and well-appointed. Everything worked just as it should. The location is terrific, just outside St Andrews, with easy access to all the attractions, restaurants, golf courses, and the lovely villages of the East Neck. We had a great weekend there with friends, and would heartily recommend it to anyone looking for a super place to stay in a wonderful part of Scotland. It would be an excellent base for golfers, just as it was terrific for a small group of friends having a few days away enjoying the best St Andrews has to offer by way of restaurants, bars and activities. Highly recommended!
