Description

A hidden gem nestled down a small Wynd directly off North Street, this traditional 19th century red brick cottage is an unique place to stay in St Andrews. Set over 2 floors, Heywood Cottage can accommodate up to 6 people flexibly in 2 twin or double bedrooms and one twin. There is a bathroom located on the ground floor and another on the first, both with enclosed shower cubicles.

The living area boasts a log burning stove which adds to the already cosy atmosphere of the cottage. The dining area sits between the living area and kitchen and is equipped with a traditional clothes pulley for drying. The back door in the kitchen opens to the private back garden.

“Great Location”

Reviewed 2 Sep 2020

Lovely 3 bed house tucked off a main street in central St Andrews. Clean and fresh with nice garden space. 2 shower rooms are a great bonus. Free parking reasonably nearby if you time it right. Very well equipped kitchen making it truly self catering but it’s a very short walk to all you need including the old course, restaurants and the west sands. Only improvement would be blackout blinds or curtains for the bedroom windows but I guess if you’re on holiday you maybe want to make the most of the daylight!

Response from the manager Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a wonderful review, we are so pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay at Heywood Cottage. In regards to the blackout blinds, following your feedback the owner is actually getting these installed within the next week. We hope to have you to stay again in the near future!
