Edenside Guest House is a couple of miles out of St. Andrew in a picturesque setting by a lake and an adjoining property with beautiful horses. Room had 2 twin beds and private bath. Small room but very comfortable, clean and cozy!! Had internet, tv and hot pot for tea or coffee. Plenty of parking. Very attentive hostess. Would definitely stay here again!

Beryl United States of America

Great location, the owner was an excellent host, friendly and helpful. It was great chatting with guests from other countries in the evening in the lovely back garden overlooking the River Eden. There were horses to look at, lots of birds singing, and a cute little bunny.

Owen United Kingdom

Mark United States of America

I belive it was one of the best place I ever stayed.

Lisa United States of America

Enjoyed our stay close to St Andrews. The location is just 5 minutes outside of town. The prices were much friendlier than those I compared in town and included parking.

Was easy to walk into the village for a pub supper. Breakfast was not available.

Host Info

Host Review Score
Although we are still researching the origins of the property it appears on an old map in Kellie Castle (NT) dated 1775. However, we can now trace it back to 1680 !!!!!! The house is a listed building and despite extensive renovation and refurbishment the old facade is largely unaltered.We are situated 2.5 miles from town centre, on the Eden bird sanctuary.
We are a private family run guest house.
Edenside House is superbly situated on the Eden Estuary SSSI and only 2.5 miles from the Famous Old Course in a magnificent setting. If you are visiting the area to soak in the history or to play a little golf Edenside is an ideal base with parking on site.
