Planning tips

Choosing the right family home

Check the layout

Look at bedrooms, bathrooms and living space, not just the maximum number of guests.

Parking and outdoor space

If you need a car space or a garden, confirm it on the listing before you book.

Book school holidays early

Family-sized homes with gardens and parking go first, so book early for fixed dates.

Questions families ask

Family holiday lets FAQs

Are your St Andrews holiday lets suitable for families?

Yes. Many of our self-catering homes suit family stays, with kitchens, shared living areas and separate bedrooms. Layouts and guest numbers vary, so compare the details for each home before you book.

Do your family holiday lets have gardens?

Selected homes have private gardens, outdoor seating or dining areas, but not every home does. Check the listing if outdoor space matters to your family.

Do the homes have washing machines?

Laundry facilities are available at selected homes, which is handy after beach days or on longer stays. Check the facilities for your chosen home before booking.

How do I choose the right size home?

Start with the number of bedrooms rather than the maximum number of guests. Think about who is happy sharing, whether children need their own rooms, and how much living and dining space you'll want.

What are good family activities in St Andrews?

West Sands is the natural starting point for a beach day, with Blown Away Experiences running activities from the beach. Craigtoun Country Park, St Andrews Aquarium, St Andrews Botanic Garden and local play parks are all good options too.
