Guest access St Andrews is a compact city and our apartment is situated on a pedestrian lane which links two of the town's main streets. Shops, restaurants and supermarkets are all accessible on foot, as is the famous golf course and award-winning beaches. Larger supermarkets (Morrisons, M&S FoodHall and Aldi) are a short drive away on the outskirts. Paid parking is available directly in front of the apartment, although often busy, and there are areas of free parking a short walk away. Dundee is served by local buses as are the small fishing villages around the East Neuk, and Edinburgh can be reached in just over an hour from nearby Leuchars (taxi ride from St Andrews). Other things to note Our apartment is unusually large for such a central location and offers guests plenty of space to relax and unwind without getting on top of each other. It has been in our family for 30 years and three generations now have fallen in love with the unique place that is St Andrews in their time as students there. We hope that you will feel just as at home there as we do!
