Dream Golf Trip
We traveled to St. Andrew's to celebrate 30 years of golfing together, and 12 Howard Place was the perfect spot to call home for 8 guys who wanted the experience of a lifetime. Plenty of space, 3 bathrooms, and a well appointed kitchen made it easy to enjoy our time there. Thanks, June.

The perfect house in St Andrews
As 4 ageing golfing tourists, this house had everything we could wish for, inside and out. Plenty of communal areas to eat, drink and discuss the days golf as well as retreating to our own area bedrooms and bathrooms. All this as well as a short stroll to the Old course 1st tee and a bunker in the backyard to sharpen our techniques. Thank you June. We will be back given the chance. Russell - Melbourne

Excellent Rental
Perfect rental for our golf trip. Great location with just a few minutes walk to restaurants and bars as well as to the historic Old Course. The interior of the rental was recently redone and looks great. Would stay again.

The Perfect Rental for 8 golfers!!
We can't say enough about 12 Howard Place!! From the moment we walked in to the moment we left, everything was perfect. With 8 guys, luggage, golf clubs etc.. there was more than enough room. The beds were incredible as were the amenities. You never know what you're going to get when you rent a home in another country but all 8 of us were truly amazed and appreciative of the opportunity to stay here. Close to everything, just the right amount of furniture and turn key ready. Thank you so much for allowing my group to stay with you! We will be back and I know exactly where we're staying!

Perfection in St Andrews
12 Howard Place was a magical experience for our party of 8. The flat is gorgeously appointed, wonderfully comfortable and well-equiped. It is conveniently located to the University and the golf course. The owner June Gibson is helpful and readily responsive to every question. Tom, the local caretaker is charming and offered to assist if we needed anything at all. We would stay there again in a heartbeat and are looking for excuses to get back to St Andrews as soon as possible.

Amazing house with a great location.
We had three couples on our trip to St. Andrews and could not have had a more enjoyable visit. If anything, we had more room than we needed. Everything was better than as advertised. It’s a wonderful home in a very special place.
