Oh my gosh, this place is a hidden gem. The pictures do NOT do it justice at all!! We were blown away by our accommodations when we arrived. First, we were just expecting a bedroom and bathroom. We got a lovely kitchen, a sitting room, giant bedroom, and a bathroom. They also provided a lovely breakfast spread each morning. Not only were we blown away by our accommodations, the entire castle is just stunning! Staying here was absolutely a highlight for us for a week long trip around Scotland. We will definitely return! Also, the hosts were incredibly kind and accommodating! It is only a short bus ride into town and you can flag down the bus from the driveway. Don’t second guess, just book!

This characterful and unique property was just as pictured in an ideal setting and very convenient for St Andrews which is approx 4 miles away. Each room is completely self contained - so no access to, or need for, communal rooms. Breakfast is provided in your own kitchen and contains a wide variety of options. Our room was vast and offered access directly onto the well maintained grounds. Being so self contained it would have been ideal for those wishing to bring their dog but unfortunately the property does not accept dogs as we subsequently discovered... otherwise our rating would have been an overall excellent for the setting, welcome, service and value for money...

It's a lovely castle! While the tour of the castle was fun and very informative, the castle was by in large not accessible due to host living quarters. My wife and I would have liked to see more of the castle itself and have a historical handout to keep. Obviously, the castle was the highlight. While we stayed downstairs in the old kitchen, which was by the was a pleasant experience, we had a desire to sit in the library and have tea or coffee and absorb the ambiance.

Beautiful castle in the middle of a forest about 10 minute drive from the center of St Andrews (you will need a car or taxi if you stay here). Had a mini apartment that was enormous and spotless with huge sitting and bedroom with very comfortable bed. Manager/owner was very proactive/responsive, but be aware that I didn’t see anyone the entire weekend. Kitchen was stocked with many breakfast things and real coffee. Will absolutely be staying here again.

This is a beautiful property sitting in the forest. It was just outside of St. Andrews, avoiding the hustle and bustle. David the proprietor is the star of this place. We could have listened to his stories forever. We had the lovely apartment at the top of the castle with a sitting room, spacious bedroom, kitchen, and bath. Breakfast was supplied in the kitchen and had plenty of options. We drove about 7 miles into Anstruther for dinner.

WOW! What a great place to stay. And it's a CASTLE!!!!! Yes, you're staying in a CASTLE. In SCOTLAND!!! Very convenient to the small fishing towns dotting the coast along the East Neck of Fife. And very short distance from Saint Andrews. We enjoyed a two night stay with breakfast. Room was spacious and very elegant ... as you'd expect from a castle. Owner David was very welcoming and helpful with advice and also offering up a great story or two. An absolute delightful human being. The grounds are walkable and there is outdoor seating. The castle is in the country so it's quiet and away from the hustle and bustle. But a great location for short day-trips. We loved our time there as it made for some fabulous memories.

Stravithie castle is an opportunity to experience something quite unique and special. The welcome included a brief tour of David’s home and interesting information about the previous owners. This was in addition to being shown our own accommodation which was spacious and comfortable. David’s dog was a most welcoming host too! I was most appreciative of the effort that David had gone to in catering for my gluten intolerance. A place that we would certainly love to return to if we are visiting the area in the future.
