Four of us stayed here for three nights. The twin room was admittedly small but the family room with a double and a single bed was quite spacious and comfortable. Hazel was very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was of golfing proportions. You can also park for free in the street.

We stayed in several B & B's in Scotland, England and Spain and Bell Craig was not among the best. The rooms were clean, but cramped and we couldn't close the toilet/bathroom sliding door at all, which was embarrassing if someone came to the door of the room. Breakfast gave the impression that food was rationed, with very little laid out in the way of fruit and cereal ( one day there were 2 bananas and 3 prunes in the bowl). The staff were not unfriendly but one would have had to have been a brave soul to complain. I believe the location, close to St Andrews golf course, is the reason continues to charge the rates it does, as its hard to see how it is 4 star.

We found pros and cons with Bell Craig. The biggest pro was the location (good to visit St Andrews on foot). The room we were in was a bit cramped (room 7), with strange sliding doors - e.g. bathroom door that was sliding and didn't lock.

The welcome pack was sparse - one page from the website and some contact numbers.

The breakfast was okay, but the selection from the breakfast "buffet" was very limited and the staff a bit glum (not rude, but not particularly friendly).

On arrival, we were greeted with a rather unusual "you're cutting it fine" (we struggled to park with the roadworks outside and had a wedding to get to), but the same lady was much more friendly on our departure.

We were given 2 sets of keys, which could have been useful, although chuckled when she said "in case you come back separately"!

All in all, we had a reasonable stay, but this is definitely a 3 star experience, not a 4 star. They say location is everything, which keeps this place in the "good value" category, but we wouldn't go there for a romantic mini-break!

Two night stay in order to visit our son. Location very good for the town, golf and beach. Staff friendly and very accommodating, food good and well presented, room clean and comfortable. Happy to recommend and hope to return.
