Pack your bags and prepare for a journey through time and fairways, returning to your luxurious Oliver’s Travels holiday property at the end of the day to relax, unwind and spend special time with your family or favourite friends.

The Fife Coastal Path offers breathtaking views of the sea and surrounding countryside and birdwatchers should grab their binoculars and head to the Tentsmuir National Nature Reserve for a symphony of diverse birdlife and tranquil woodlands.
St. Andrews is the gateway to Fife's enchanting landscapes. You can explore the fishing villages of Anstruther and Pittenweem, where the seafood is so fresh it practically jumps onto your plate or hop over to the historic town of Cupar for medieval architecture and a bustling market square.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at St Andrew’s Lodge. Our friends have stayed at the Round House and recommended it to us. The accommodation is amazing for families who want a quiet and tranquil getaway and the owners are so friendly and made us feel at home.

The house was absolutely beautiful
We stayed in St Andrew’s Lodge for the weekend celebrating my husband’s 50th birthday. The house was absolutely beautiful, with stunning decor, extremely comfortable beds, very well equip kitchen. We had a chef Kevin who was suggested by the property managers come in and cook for us 1 night and his food was exquisite. The house facilities including pool table and hot tub were a perfect addition to the house and enjoyed by all. We will be back!

I wholeheartedly recommend it
St Andrews Country Retreat and St Andrews Lodge are two incredible properties that I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone visiting St Andrews - two 5 star properties that have the most amazing inclusions and decor - each room is so beautifully made up and different to the next. The appliances are modern, the golf practise facilities are exceptional, and the owners are friendly and accommodating. They have everything and much more anyone visiting St Andrews could want!

We had a fantastic weekend
We had a fantastic weekend in St Andrews Lodge and St Andrews Round House. The house had everything we needed, was immaculately clean, and was spacious and comfortable. The living areas were ideal for large groups. We enjoyed our meals at St Andrews Round House, and socialised in St Andrews Lodge making use of the pool table and bar. The short course golf course was a great activity for our staff. Many commented on the beautiful scenery, and we loved the inquisitive alpacas! We would highly recommend the accommodation. The staff provided a high level of customer care before and during our stay.
