Ok, so we book at this place, looking for some relaxation. They failed to tell us that they booked the May Day St. Andrews University Ball for that night too. So there's 3000 university students on the property, amusement park rides and so forth. And then when we show displeasure they looked surprised. They tell me that they tried to... More

We attended a wedding on the grounds and stayed at the very convenient house which was a 5 min walk from the venue. I didn't particularly like the left-over soap and shower gel left in the bathroom (I assume) by the previous guest(s). I also wasn't really keen on the bedroom and front door being left unlocked other than that... More

We stayed for 3 nights, attending a family wedding at the Byre. 6 adults and 4 children, all made to feel very welcome indeed. Nothing was too much trouble - the children especially had a ball, managing to find Frippy's & Sandy's stash of toys for their grand-children. Beautiful, comfortable house, only surpassed by its setting. Very good and very... More

we booked in for a winter break at Kinkell House. The imposing house set in its own garden on the edge of the North Sea was both impressive and welcoming. We had a warm welocome from Frippy and Sandy and were shown to a luxurious room full of character and personal touches. The family house is both comfortable and relaxing... More

I stayed here for a birthday trip booked by my partner. I'll start with the positives - the breakfast was lovely and the dining room a cosy delight. The hosts seemed pleasant and accomodating and there was a beautiful coastal walk to the town centre that was memorable and enjoyable. However, the experience was let down greatly by the room...

Very sorry to hear you were disappointed but it was explained at the time of booking that the only room available was one not normally used for B&B because it is indeed one of our children's bedrooms and your partner was happy to make the booking on this basis. More

We had a most enjoyable stay, with a lovely view of peahens and rabbits on the lawn first thing in the morning from our spacious bedroom. The bathroom was large and I had lovely long soaks in the bath with plenty of magazines provided. The owners have obviously spent time thinking about the extra touches. We particularly appreciated the extra... More
