Great Location. Walking distance to everything St. Andrews! Very nice B and B. Owner is talkative and opinionated, but it is his house.....Very nice rooms! Very good value for St. Andrews

My mother and I stayed here and absolutely loved it! The location couldn't be better - we could see the castle ruins and ocean from the shower! Spacious rooms and beautifully decorated house. Amazing hospitality and a delicious breakfast with wide selection of delicious food. Laundry facilities were available which we greatly appreciated. Comfortable beds. Definitely recommend this place!

The B&B is run by a retired American naval pilot, and there are American standards of comfort and decor. The bedrooms are clean and comfortable and rather expensive. The host is very gregarious.

We arrived last minute a couple of days ago and the stay was ideal. The 35+ steps climb to our room with luggage was a bit daunting but the view was absolutely worth it. The top floor room is possibly the largest we have stayed in here in The UK. The breakfast was well prepared and the fresh fruit was... More

I can't imagine staying anywhere else should we return to St. Andrews! I had worried that we might be disappointed because there weren't as many reviews on Trip Advisor as some other establishments in town, but this place is small and so charming. We were sold on the pictures of the ivy cloaked walls, and, more so, the views of... More

We had small but modern and well appointed en suites. Also have big flat screen TV's. Lucky us the weather was fantastic and we were out most of the time. The views... More

We have just returned from spending four nights at Castlemount. From the minute we walked through the door, Lynda-Anne and Jerry could not have been more welcoming and hospitable. They really go out of their way to accommodate your every need in their beautiful house. The location and views are terrific. The breakfasts are delicious - plenty of choices to... More

We have just returned from a 12-night stay, on the top floor of the Castlemount, visiting our daughter, son-in-law, (new doctoral student at St. Andrews), and 5 month-old grandson. Reviewer "jmamm", I am with you. We too, "[could not] imagine how it could have been any better." Every morning was "just another routine morning in paradise!" Jerry and Linda-Anne (and... More

We stayed for a long weekend and can't imagine how it could have been better. This is just a perfect b&b. Great location with stunning sea views. Top notch breakfasts (try the pancakes with maple syrup all the way from Michigan!). A beautiful house full of charm and character. And to cap it all, jerry and Lynda-Anne - our welcoming... More

This B&B is conveniently located near the old town, it has a terrific view of the ocean past castle ruins and within easy walking distance to shops, restaurants in town. Although somewhat cramped inside, Castlemount has a relaxing antique kind of charm to it. The rooms are somewhat small but the bed is comfortable, the bathrooms are modern and above... More
