Description from manager
Description
Just a hop, skip and a jump to East Sands beach, The Wayfarer's House is an idyllic St Andrews retreat.
This perfectly cosy home welcomes you in to the lounge and dining area, which provides access to the kitchen area to the rear. The spacious living area is flooded with natural light, with French doors opening up in to its private back garden. No winter day is complete without a log-burning stove – return home from a long (and possibly wet!) day out, to warm up beside the fire with a hot chocolate in hand.
The kitchen, which retains its original stone wall, comes equipped with all you could require for your self-catered stay.
The first floor encompasses a twin or super king bedroom, a double bedroom and the master bathroom with a shower over the bath. Up another set of stairs, the second floor houses the largest double bedroom and another bathroom equipped with a shower cubicle, and sea views!
To the rear of the property off the kitchen and living room, is a private and completely enclosed garden. Just around the corner from The Wayfarer's House, you have access to East Sands beach and the famous Cheesy Toast Shack, as well as a wonderful off-road walk down to the Cathedral ruins and straight in to town.
The Wayfarer's is set over three floors and briefly compromises of:
Ground floor:
Lounge with wood burning stove
Fully equipped kitchen
First floor:
One twin or superking bedroom
One double bedroom
Master bathroom with shower over bath
Second floor:
