The lodge was perfect for a country retreat. Loved the 9 hole championship putting green (with bunker) and the hot tub was top of the range and luxurious. Did our 4 in the Bed reccie and rooms spotless. The owners very friendly and bent over backwards to ensure your stay was excellent. Very good taxi service to St Andrews ( arranged by owner) and short journey to the University and home of golf St Andrews. Would highly recommend for personal or corporate use.

Fantastic short break. Superb facilities and hospitality. Very friendly and helpful owners. If you are a family with young kids and want to nip to a driving range or green area when they go to bed. This is perfect. 5 star luxury.

5 stars are not enough for this place! The welcome from the owners was second to none, we stayed for B&B and could not have been made more welcome. The rooms and dining room are beautifully appointed with attention to detail being at the forefront. Everything was perfect from check in to check out with an amazing breakfast. Could not recommend this place more. Great family run business.

As a group we hired the main lodge/house and rooms in the B&B, all the accommodation was well presented and clean. There was plenty of space and facilities for our large group and our needs were well catered for. Would happily go back.

I Really enjoyed the break. It was very up market and the cleanliness was superb. There was plenty of wild life in the area as well. We had our own golf course and putting green. A huge hot tub was there for our convenience if we wanted to use it temperature was at 40 degrees wow. Overall amazing and I would return at some point. I wish the owners good luck for the future.
