Guest Services
Cleaning Service
Your holiday property is cleaned thoroughly before your stay. If you are staying for 2 weeks we do a refresh clean after the first 7 days. However, if you would like a more frequent service this can be arranged at an extra charge. Please call the office to discuss your requirements and we will try our best to arrange this. Cost provided on request and availability.
Bringing Babies
To save you bringing your own travel cot and highchair, you may hire either at an extra cost of £20 each (linen is not provided for the travel cots due to allergy reasons). Cots and highchairs are cleaned after and before each use with child friendly disinfectant products. These can be requested when making your booking or if you already have a booking please feel free to give us a call if and we can ensure they are set up in your house ready for your arrival.

BBQs
Unfortunately, we no do not provide BBQs for your stay. However, the local Morrisons on Largo Road and also Home Improvements on South Street both stock disposable BBQs which are available for purchase if the weather is looking sunny. Additionally, if you are staying in Crail then the local Co-op or Dans Goods both stock BBQs too. Please make sure you take any old BBQs away with you or dispose of them.
Catering
If you are looking for a private chef or catering service during your stay, St Andrews Event Catering come highly recommended. Alternatively, Morrisons have now set up a ‘food to order’ range, including sandwich platters, savoury platters and cakes which can be ordered and collected from your local store.
Bringing Dogs
With over half of our properties welcoming well behaved pets, we have plenty of choice when it comes to planning your holiday with your 4-legged friend. There is an additional charge of £25 per pet (this is to cover the additional cleaning time), which can be added upon booking or if you already have a booking with us, just give us a call or an email to let us know they will be coming along. All we ask of our pet-owning guests is that you do not allow your pet on the soft furnishings and clear up any mess they leave in the gardens.
Collecting keys if you are arriving late or don’t have a car
Upon your arrival you will have been given instructions in your booking confirmation to collect your keys from our office, located just outside of St Andrews. We are aware, for some, this may be an inconvenience if you arrive without a car; we are happy to meet you at your holiday home with keys if you are due to arrive within office hours (9am – 17:30pm Monday to Saturday). There is an additional charge of £25 for this service.
If you are arriving outside of office hours we have a safe situated just outside our office door so you are welcome to collect your keys at any time, regardless how late, at no extra charge.

We are lucky to have an excellent maintenance team who are always on hand to help. We are present in the office to assist with any issues you may have Monday-Saturday 9-5.30pm. For emergencies out with office hours, we ask you to leave a message and we shall get back to you asap, rest assured you will never be stuck.
