Our stay at Tarskavaig was absolutely fantastic. Fiona and Alan were and are the best hosts anyone could wish for. The property is beautiful, spotless and the location for us was perfect. Just far enough out of the St Andrews town, simply a 10 to 15 minutes car journey, which was close enough for us. We arrived at Tarskavaig late in the afternoon and Alan and Fiona were there to greet us. Alan was ready with a map highlighting all the best places around to visit. The breakfast and setting was brilliant. I don't think anyone could ask for anything better than this.

A must is a drive to the small fishing villages, restaurants on and around the coast as well as the St Andrews town. Without Fiona's and Alan's help with this we wouldn't have found many of them highlighted on the map Alan loaned us for our stay. There is a pub/hotel/restaurant 2 minutes drive from Tarskavaig called the Inn at Lathones. Well worth a visit in the evening at the end of a long journey.

The cleanest B&B I have stayed so far. The host has a great selection of breakfast menu and certainly prepares the most sumptuous meal. Host offered to help pick my laundry, which gave me more time to visits. Nice to wake up to sheeps that graze outside the window, and star gazing in the night. Tranquil environment.

Exceptional accommodation - beautiful house and extremely comfortable. Every single aspect of our 2 night stay was of the highest standard. Fiona and Allan are welcoming, friendly and attentive hosts who do everything possible to ensure their guests are well looked after. We absolutely loved it! Thank you for helping to make our birthday weekend visit even more special. We really hope to visit again. Thank you.

It is only a few minutes drive into St Andrews and free parking once there is great! Lots of lovely cafes to enjoy during the day but would recommend prior booking for a restaurant as it was very busy due to students returning to commence studies and very busy when we were there. A real bonus to be able to walk all round the Old Course on a Sunday and booking onto a guided tour gives you so much more insight into the history of the town and its golf heritage. The beach is magnificent. So much to enjoy!
