Balone Garden Cottage - Wood Burner

Balone Garden Cottage was a perfect home from home. Ideally situated on the outskirts of St Andrews. The accommodation was modern and clean. The host came to greet us on arrival. We thoroughly enjoy our stay and would highly recommend it to anyone.

Beautiful apartment Very close to St. Andrew Great location We really enjoyed our stay The hosts were very friendly and welcoming

Standard of accommodation and the quietness Bedside reading light would be a minor improvement

This place is a stunner. The views of St. Andrews are out of this world from this little cottage. The owners did a spectacular job of putting this place together and decorating it. It's all very new and fresh and modern. The door was a little weird to figure out at first, but once we did, all went well. Bed was comfortable, but I think it's a stretch to call it a king size... at least by American standards. However, it was very comfortable. The only thing I would say is if you're older, you may have trouble with the bed and possibly the couch - they're both low to the ground, especially the bed. It's not on a frame, so you're right on the ground. An older person would really struggle to get in and out of it, I think. But it was comfortable, plenty of closet storage in the bedroom. Views - again - wonderful.As for finding the cottage? Well, that was fun. We actually ended up on the cart path of the golf course across the street - yes, on the actual cart path - before we realized the navigation system didn't really know where to go. So it would be a little more helpful to maybe add a pin to the directions or some other kind of way to find the cottage using a car's nav system. The link in the welcome email is correct, but getting that into a rental car's nav is the sticky part. Don't put in Balone Garden Cottage or Mount Melville in a car's nav because you WILL end up in the middle of a golf course!

Amazing cottage, very modern and lovely wood burner
