Great property, we loved it, dogs loved it. Better than pictures! Location ideal. We used garage and parked second car close by on street with no parking charges. Enjoyed eating in, using Aga, plus many local restaurants. Walked all over St Andrews and the beaches, played a little golf, and several other longer coastal/mountain walks. Mostly lucky with good weather. We had a great time. Thank you!

Cowper’s Close was a GEM. Suited our family trip (ages newborn to 70s) perfectly. Charm city but also completely comfortable, and the location could not be better. Wonderful to have multiple living spaces (& even a backyard!) for that many people, and the kitchen was the best-equipped of any rental we’ve done. We hope to be back someday….soon!
