Location

[View on map]

The house is situated in North Castle Street, just 50 metres from the ruins of St Andrews Castle and close to the Cathedral.

The town centre is a few minutes walk away, as is the University, St Salvador's Chapel, the picturesque harbour and a host of other buildings of historical interest.

St Andrews is well served by trains (Leuchars station 3 miles away) and buses (Bus Station in centre of town).  It is also ideally located for the airports of Edinburgh (1 hour 15 minutes) and Dundee (20 minutes).

Leisure

The famous Old Course, the Royal and Ancient Clubhouse and the British Golf Museum are within a 10 minute walk.  The recently rebuilt Byre Theatre is only 200 metres away and stages some excellent productions.

St Andrews has 5 excellent golf courses, a nine-hole beginners course, a unique putting green (called The Himalayas, for obvious reasons), and a first class driving range and practice area.  Many of these are within walking distance, the others only 2 or 3 minutes drive away.

The town still retains its medieval character, although as an internationally-known golfing and university town it has a vibrant mix of students, golfers, visitors and residents.
