St Andrews is home to a plethora of really cute cottages, and this home is no exception. Its white exterior and blue door make the home look super welcoming.

This brand new apartment in the heart of St Andrews has been deemed “The Golf Flat” by its owner. The interior is decked out in green decor, so it’s easy to see why. Since it’s a new building, everything in the apartment is updated and clean. There is even a putting green in the backyard!

Quaint and Quirky


This cottage reminds me of the home from The Holiday from the outside. Inside, it has grid-like ceiling beams and vintage decor that make the whole house feel quirky and charming. To me, this home is exactly what comes to mind when I think of St Andrews.
