Our stay at the Forgan Cottage was absolutely perfect. Perfectly situated in the middle of St Andrews, the cottage was super cosy, clean and welcoming.

This was a lovely house to stay in. It was very clean, the location was great and the communication with the owners was excellent. They had a nice book with places to eat and sightseeing recommendations. I would stay there again and will be recommending this to anyone I know that will be traveling to St. Andrews.

Golfing holiday in St Andrews

We loved the property. Perfect for our group of 4 adults who were on a golfing holiday. The walk to the courses in St Andrews were reasonable and we were close to all the shops and restaurants on Market and North Street. Adequate parking and seamless checkin/checkout process. Would strongly recommend

Great location and beautifully decorated. Very comfortable beds. Lovely outdoor space with nice garden furniture. Street parking not too bad considering how close it is to the town centre. Refurbished basement is a very useful space. Nice modern bathroom with very powerful shower. Only negative for us was the kitchen being so small and having to go outside to access the basement/ freezer. However, it is a very old/ historic cottage and the owner has definitely made the absolute most of the space available.
