We chose this house because of both its size (the ability to easily accommodate 9 persons) but especially because of its central location in town. Both fulfilled our expectations. The house is literally just steps away from most everything one comes to St Andrews for (golf, history, food). It was comfortable and suited our needs very well. When, after getting no response from an email request I sent twice, and. had to phone the management company was very nice and helpful.

Great golf getaway

This is the perfect place to stay if you are on a golf holiday! We had a great time staying here and want to come back every year! It was perfect for our group of golfers. I would highly recommend staying here if you are looking for a great place to be close to some of the best golf in the world! We had all the amenities we needed, and the location was absolutely perfect for us! Thanks for the great rental!

Amazing stay, highly recommend!!

As a larger group going away for a weekend, we needed the right place to keep everyone happy, and we could not have been happier with our selection of Dempster Lodge. It has been an amazing place to stay, the house is terrific, the close location to town is perfect, and the service from the ShortStay team has been second to none. We cant thank them enough for looking after us and our needs. Highly recommend this lodge if you are staying in St Andrews, as we will certainly be coming back in the future. Thanks again to everyone involved!!! Nothing to comment here, a perfect stay.
