Set in Scotland in the Fife countryside, just 10 miles from St Andrews and 5 miles from Dundee, Sandford Country Cottages are luxury self-catering cottages & apartments which are part of Sandford House, a 'B' Listed Arts and Crafts House built in 1902.
A family business, the properties have been restored by us with Arts and Crafts features such as oak beams and posts. One, two and three bedroom properties are available and all bedrooms are en-suite, with either a bath or a walk-in shower, and all are fitted with Trevi rainwater showers.
In the living areas you'll find spacious open plan spaces, comfy seating and a dining table and chairs. There is also a flat screen TV and an iPod dock or Sonos sound system. The kitchens are very well-equipped, and are fully fitted with modern appliances.
All properties have central heating and a wood burning stove (except Red Squirrel). Electricity, heating and one basket of logs is included in the rental cost, additional logs can be purchased from the office. Superfast WiFi is free.
This was our 3rd stay at Sandford Country Cottages. We opted for The Coach House this time having stayed in The Giddy Limit and Lady Bluebell on our last visits. The Coach House is spacious and beautifully appointed. It was ideal for us. While we had planned to be more active, we spent time relaxing on the terrace enjoying the good weather. Evelyn and Ralph are great hosts and very welcoming. We are already talking about a return visit!
I love this part of Scotland, and Sandford Country Cottages is a perfect location for exploring both the coast along the East Neuk and also around Dundee and Perth. Edinburgh is also quite accessible. However, just staying put and reading a book or watching the wildlife is great too. Such a fabulous spot.
The apartment was everything we had hoped for, stylish, clean, spacious, light & airy and tranquil with elevated views over the countryside and courtyard garden. The woodland area at the back was great for watching the squirrels and birds. The bonus for us was staying in a house designed by Baillie Scott, which has been lovingly, sensitively and thoughtfully restored by the owners. Everything is provided for a comfortable home from home and all furniture, fixtures and fittings are to the highest standard. The weather was kind enough for us to enjoy sunny breakfasts in the private outside dinin...more
We have stayed in all of the apartments at Sandford but this is probably our favourite. It has doors that open onto a patio with table and chairs and access to the garden. It is always a delight to watch the red squirrels in the garden early morning. The apartment is well equipped, very clean and very comfortable. Thanks again, Evelyn and Ralph!
