Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Perfect big beautiful holiday home. Great hot tub, great views.
We had a perfect girl's weekend away and Barnyards was perfect. Very well equipped, lots of space for everyone, really comforable house. The hot tub was such a bonus too, lying in the hot water, watching all the twinkling light out over the Firth of Forth, with a view all the way over to Edinburgh. It was magical. Just a few mins drive to the beach too, and the lovely towns of the East Neuk if you want a wander about. The host was lovely too, very helpful and accomodating. Highly recommended.

Been to Barnyards now for about 11 years. The location is good and the house itself is modern and bright with ample parking and space to enjoy the outdoors (weather permitting) Hot tub is a bonus. Great place for a get away from it all break but not too far from the many coastal villages. Thoroughly enjoyable place to be

Amazing property in fantastic location
There is not one negative to say about the property or the host. We were a group 2 families 8 in total with teens, children and toddler and everyone had an amazing time - the set up of the house is perfect for a large group with amazing views and close to many towns - can’t wait to visit again - thank you.

Excellent accommodation
Barnyards is a lovely property, well furnished, well equipped and excellently situated for exploring Fife. We were there to play golf and we were spoiled for choice within 30 minutes, including the famous St Andrews. After a game of golf the hot tub was a very popular facility! With so many courses still to play I hope this will be the first of many visits.

Great stay! Beautiful!
We had a brilliant stay for a long weekend at the barnyards! We stayed Friday to Monday and we had the best weather while there which allowed us to get full use of the outdoor areas looking out on to the beautiful scenes around the property. The house is decorated to a high standard and has everything you would need while staying here. The added touch of the robes for the hot tub were a nice addition. 😊 We visited Upper largo for some food during the day but it was busy so best to book if going in future.

Orchard Cottage, Kincaple, Fife.
Beautiful cottage situated 10mins drive from St. Andrews. Tastefully decorated by artistic people. Extremely spacious with a lovely orchard which baby (14 months) loved. Would definately return. Owners David and Fiona Wallace are very warm, welcoming and friendly.

Quiet location, relaxing and comfortable getaway.
Amazing contrasting views to the sea and to the hill behind the farm. Barnyards is a very nice modern house with all modern amenities. Comfortable nicely decorated clean bedrooms and modern clean bathrooms with excellent power showers. Well equipped kitchen with dining table for 8. Plenty outdoor space for entertaining and barbecue. There are parking spaces for 5 cars and more. Elma is a very friendly and helpful host. Hot tub was warm and ready for our use all day. We haven't even had a chance to sit in the living room, there was enough entertainment outside and beautiful weather to enjoy the countryside. There are few nature walks around, and a short walk to the main village. The farm has amazing views all around. Property is well signed, and if you drive slowly its easy to spot the turn from the main road :)

Fantastic weekend getaway
Barnyards was a great place for a weekend break. We went as a group of friends but it would also suit families very well. The house is very well equipped and Elma had great communication throughout. There are lots of lovely walks nearby and the hot tub was warm and ready for our arrival!
