The cottage was very clean, well looked after and well situated although if you want to be in town for the evening it takes 7 or 8 mins to get there . The only issue I had with the cottage was its lack of noise insulation inside especially the bathroom. When sitting in the living room you could hear every... More

We stayed at these cottages for a weekend, as our niece was getting married nearby. Excellent deal negotiated and this was a wonderful place to stay for all of the family who stayed there. Throughout the planning Iain and Louise were very accommodating and went out of their way when we needed an extra cottage at the last minute. Everything... More

I was with Toodles80 on our weekend away - what an absolute gem of a place she found!! As bride to be I didn't pay (yippee) but the girls got such reasonable rates. The location is amazing being just outside St Andrews and with the Fairmont close by, yet quiet enough to allow relaxation. The views from the front cottages... More

I arranged a girls weekend away and am so pleased to have found Balmashie holiday cottages - we couldn't have picked a better place to stay! Louise and Iain were very accommodating and very quick to respond to my many queries via email. We booked 4 cottages and all were extremely well presented, clean and very well equipped. We did...

Thank you for the stay in your beautiful cosy cottages! They were very comfortable, had everything you needed and the setting is stunning with sea views. We were very lucky to have sunshine the whole weekend as well. The only disappointing thing about the weekend having to leave but we will be back as we had one of the best... More

We stayed at Balmashie over Hogmany as our daughter was getting married nearby-we booked out all the cottages for the wedding party and we couldn't have had a better time! The location is stunning and the staff were wonderful. They were so accommodating and helpful-nothing was too much bother. The cottages are very clean and have everything you could need.... More

We booked a number of the cottages at Balmashie as a base for our wedding in July of this year. The service and standard of all the accommodation was absolutely first class! Given the reason for booking the cottages, we asked Louise and Ian to assist us with a number of things which were probably over and above the norm... More

Milton wrote 'Paradise Lost' --------- well Balmashie is 'Paradise Found' We have just returned from our yearly holiday at 'Balmashie' [this being our eleventh year] The reason we return year after year is we find it very relaxing. The cottages are very welcoming, well equipped, cosy and clean, and the settee's and the beds are very comfortable. The views are... More

Enjoyed a fantastic weekend with friends in Cottages 8 & 9. Very clean and great attention to detail - down to the coffee, tea bags, sugar and carton of milk provided so that we could have a much needed cuppa on arrival - as well as a nice packet of shortbread!! A little way out of the centre of town... More

Lovely Views, we enjoyed the walk through the golf course every day, it was so peaceful. The perfect place to unwind. The cottages are warm and feel cosy. The beds are comfortable. The laundry is great, dried clothes very quickly, saves taking to much luggage. We went to the world famous fish and chip shop in Anstruther, and all thought... More
