United KingdomLocation perfect. Spent a lot of my family holidays in anster and east newk. But have never noticed this hostel was amazed with the price and location.

United KingdomYann our host went above and beyond to make our stay lovely 😊
Lucia

United KingdomReally cool and interesting building with lots of original features. Great location next to bus stop (for bus to / from St Andrews). Very cosy room with a comfortable bed and everything was exceptionally clean. Yan (hostel owner) was amazing, they were so friendly and offered great tips of what to do / see in Anstruther. We had a double bedroom with a beautiful view of the harbour. The toilet and shower room was separate from our room but that didn’t bother us - they were very clean and very well marked out so that each room had a matching toilet / shower area so not sharing with other guests. There was a communal area downstairs with a fridge and tea / coffee making facilities. We would recommend this place to anyone looking for a cosy stay in Anstruther.
