"What a hotel! Beautiful scenery, located on the golf course and over looking the sea. The hotel was very clean and staff were lovely and helpful. The hotel is walkable from the train station; however, I’d recommend booking a taxi in advance. Taxis in the town are very hard to come by. Hotel staff was very helpful is booking a taxi for us to return to the station. Bikes are available at the hotel to take into town which is very convenient. Hotel breakfast was fantastic."

"An excellent stay at The Kithmore, just blocks away from the Old Course in St Andrews. We received a warm welcome and friendly, helpful service throughout our stay. Room was comfortable, yet a bit tight to enable stretching after a round. Bed was amazing, as was the water pressure and temps for the shower. Portable fan was available to help with airflow. Walkable to the shops and restaurants in St Andrews. Do note there are only stairs, no lift, to get to your room. Would highly recommend."

"The house is in a beautiful setting with an amazing patio view. Everything in the house has obviously been chosen with care and contributes to a relaxing stay. Beds are extremely comfortable (heated electric blanket makes for a great nights sleep) and kitchen has all the equipment that you would need to easily self cater. Totally loved Martha’s Harbour and thoroughly recommend it."
