Stay: November 2008 It was an extra special occasion; "Dad's 70th" and a life time dream, a round of golf for two at the Old Course. To make the setting complete, a good B&B was needed. It had to be in the right location (close to the course), have good clean modern rooms, a hearty breakfast, and advance payment possible... more

The service that we received for the cost of the stay was outstanding. We did not expect such hospitality and kindness. Although we did a lot of walking it was nice to come back to nice, comfortable room. I met Elaine before I stayed at Balrymonth B&B to pay for the first night. When I left I felt very excited... more

Balrymonth B&B is a spotless, modern, well-located B&B that is perfect for a stay in St Andrews. Elaine and Alan are the perfect pair, combining warm hospitality with knowledge of the Kingdom of Fife - and the UK! The decor at Balrymonth is akin to a "W" hotel in a big city, with great colors, lighting and decorating and nary... more

My husband and I stayed at Balrymonth in early August for three nights as part of a two month trip through Europe. Elaine greeted us at the front door like an old friend - after a long car drive in the rain it was wonderful to arrive and feel so welcome in such a cosy place. Both Elaine and her... more

My husband and I and our 6 month old baby greatly enjoyed our weekend at Balrymonth B&B. It was very comfortable, particularly the large bed, and all impeccably clean. Many B&B hosts would greet a 6-month-old with some horror but Elaine gave us a lovely welcome and was on hand to help us with every detail, from arranging our travel... more

Elaine, all I can say is - why only 3 stars? My husband and I went to St Andrews to visit an old friend and chose Balrymonth after reading the reviews of other people. Elaine met us like an old friend we hadn't seen for a while. She was so friendly and welcoming, we had a lovely room and the... more

My wife and I stayed at The Balrymonth while tasting the menu at the Old Course Hotel in preparation for our wedding. Now, that may sound like we are boasting ... and we are. But not about the Old Course - which was sublime - but we are actually boasting about The Balrymonth. On an important day - well, we... more

My wife and I had stayed in contact with Elaine since staying at the Sporting Laird, which she managed. Since she did such a great job there, we knew her B&B would be first rate. The price is very reasonable, the breakfasts are superb and the rooms are quite comfortable, clean and spacious. Elaine has a warm, caring and positive... more

What a lovely surprise to be browsing tripadvisor to find yet another review. It is so nice to find that other guests have taken time to write such a special review. I will have to get the doorways widened after reading this one:) I shall look forward to welcoming you both back in the future. Best wishes!
