Quirky Cottage

Spacious comfortable quiet cottage away from hustle and bustle but close enough to walk

Nothing

What breakfast???

If there was a breakfast, where was it

Fantastic location.walking distance. Very comfortable and clean. Great shower.

Parties going on around due to prominent student area. But bearable. Extra cost for small dog not overly clear and felt unnecessary. £20 - dog friendly usually just means that. I only noticed this charge on check in.

Location was pretty good.

No ensuite bathrooms

Everything about this property is perfect!!!! First of all it's beautiful!!! The location is perfect, the house is so spacious, it has everything you need and is immaculate. We will try to stay here every visit to see our daughter at St. Andrews. It's absolutely the best!!

Nothing!

We were in St Andrews for my niece's wedding at St Andrew’s Episcopal Church on Sunday 13th August and needed somewhere to stay where we could take our elderly GSD, Princess, who has arthritis in her spine as well as hip dysplasia. This was close by and we were able to leave our dog in the care of a professional dog carer while we were at the ceremony and reception, which alleviated our concerns as Princess lost her companion, our other dog, about 2 months ago.

It was what it was; somewhere to put our heads down for 2 nights where we were at the wedding and reception. We arrived late Saturday afternoon and left early Monday morning. I don't think it was value for money, particularly when we were asked to carry out basic housekeeping tasks, including stripping the beds. By coincidence, only a couple of weeks previously, because we had a friend staying with us from Northern Ireland who wanted to see something of the Lake District near where we live, we booked comparable accommodation for 2 nights in the centre of the Lakes through booking.com (Pickle Pot Loft, Hawkshead, which was brilliant, and very well presented). The contrast couldn't have been greater. The cost in Hawkshead was £429 compared with £711 in St Andrews. I don't know how the owners here justify a £70 cleaning fee when we are being asked to carry out basic housekeeping duties ourselves and the floors are either hard surfaces or hard wearing carpet, nor the additional £20 fee for a dog, which didn't apply in Hawkshead. I've answered yes to the question below about whether the property met expectations because it provided a bed for the night so don't read anything into that. The beds were comfortable. One or two minor points. Labelling would be helpful e.g. colour coding the keys or Labelling the switches for the hob and oven either side of the cooker would be helpful.
