Just spent our first wedding anniversary at Linda and Jim's bed and breakfast and our stay was superb! It was our seventh visit and as always, they both made us feel right at home. Rooms are immaculate, modern and the house is full of character. We have stayed at lots of B&Bs and this is by far the best. You... More

Jim and Linda are marvellous hosts and the place is kept superbly clean. Good room space, too, unlike some of the b&b in town. Wouldnt stay anywhere else if I visited St Andrews again. More

Just back from a couple of days in St. Andrews, staying at Little Carron Cottage. Just what you would expect from the reviews, it is comfortable, clean, and welcoming. We don't normally do B&B, preferring for various reasons to have the full facilities if a hotel, but places like this - and people like Linda (and Jim, although he was... More

As a former student at St A my experiences with B and B's in town are very limited. As far as I can tell though, they are mostly of high quality and service, but at the more expensive end of the spectrum as they are often situated right by the golf courses. This B and B is a couple of... More

Myself and my wife have now stayed with Jim & Linda at Little Carron Cottage on numerous occasions and can safely say this is the best B&B in St Andrews. Service is second to none, food is top notch (full menu choice on breakfast), the palce is as clean as a whistle and most of all, Jim & Linda are... More

Little Carron Cottage was recommended by the friends we were visiting in St. Andrews. It was like staying with friends. Linda and her husband were delightful hosts. The suite was very comfortable. If we had stayed longer or were traveling with children, the kitchen would have been a cost saver. We took advantage of the nice tea and biscuits each... More

St. Andrews was our soft landing after a journey to the Highlands & Cairngorms areas. This town has a great charming character, and luckily we have spend one night at the pleasant Little Carron Cottage B&B. Linda’s hosting was first-rate, and extra thoughtful! We enjoyed a lovely bedroom suite, a most comfy bathroom, and had our own private lounge &... More

St. Andrews was our favorite town in Scotland. This B&B was more than we expected. The room we had was like a little apartment. We had a large bedroom with a separate little living room with the TV. The bathroom and shower were modern and roomy. It even had a small kitchen. We only stayed one night, but this would... More

We had two nights at Little Carron Cottage this week. Situated in a quiet residential area, a short drive from the town centre. Walkable route into town via the beautiful Lade Braes. Linda and Jim were excellent hosts - Jim even organised for another guest to play golf with him. We had a room with ensuite and sitting room and... More
