Below are some of the comments left by our guests who have stayed at Balmashie. VisitScotland inspected Balmashie and commented on the "excellent buildings" - "the highest standards in housekeeping" and decor, furnishings etc.. further commenting on "excellent standards".

Mr and Mrs Ullrich, Milngavie, Glasgow. We really enjoyed our time at the Bothy and were impressed by the high
standard of the decor and fittings in the cottage. Andrew has worked
hard to create a great set of properties at Balmashie. This together
with the location means that we have no hesitation in recommending them
to family & friends...

Can I just take this opportunity to once again thank you for the most wonderful self catering facility we have ever stayed in. It really felt like a home from home. Our boys are already planning all school breaks to involve a visit to Balmashie. We all had a truly fabulous time.You certainly have thought of everything a family needs when away from home.
I look forward to hearing from you regarding Easter 2008.
Mr & Mrs Balfour, Galashiels The cottage at Balmashie was the best self-catering accommodation we have ever stayed in - and we have stayed in many over the years.
Mary & Graham Young, Nottingham. Thanks again for providing us with such a wonderful retreat - as always we enjoyed every minute of our stay at Balmashie.

Dear Andrew, Thank you for a wonderful time at the beautiful Balmashie Cottages.  We had sixteen friends and family stay for the British Open and everyone enjoyed the facilities and your wonderful hospitality.  I will strongly recommend Balmashie as the place to stay to my golfing friends traveling to St Andrew's.  May I take this opportunity to wish you every success in the future. Joe Carr.

My family enjoyed our few days holiday at Balmashie (Cottage no 7). It was everything you said it was and we appreciated the comfort and cleanliness of the cottage and the spaciousness of the grounds.  Plenty of room for the children to run around and play is a real bonus. We would like to come back again!

We are very content with our house at Balmashie.  We find it very well equipped.  The management are quite charming and cannot do enough for us, fulfilling our every request.
John & Jo Stevens Ely, Cambridgeshire We found the cottage extremely well equipped and the view stupendous.  We will recommend Balmashie to our friends, golfers and otherwise.

Balmashie is a special place where one feels at home and comfortable.  The view of the sea, St Andrews and especially warm attention that Andrew Pirie gives his guests is very unique.

We can't begin to tell you how much we enjoyed staying in your cottage.  It was the nicest of them all at St Andrews.  We told our friends about your place and how beautiful it is.  You seemed to have picked up a jewel when you built your cottages.  We hope to be able to come back soon.

Thank you for an excellent week at your lovely cottages.  We had exactly the kind of break we wanted and feel lucky with the weather.  The cottage was first class and our kids loved your "park".  We have no hesitation in recommending your cottages to our friends and family.  We'll see you again soon.
Alison Brown, Edinburgh Andrew - just a quick note to let you know that we were more than
pleased with the accommodation/lunch etc., we have done nothing but talk about our night away since.  We had such a relaxing time it was nice to be in such quiet / luxurious surroundings.
Bob & Ray Drummond Ladybank Bob took 6 cottages for family and friends to celebrate his 60th Birthday.

Thanks again for hosting us all the other weekend.  In the event, everything turned out exactly as I would have wished to the highest order, and a major contributor to the success was your own relaxed attitude to what was going on!  Our weekend was enjoyed immensely by Grandparents, Mums and Dads, children and friends alike, each pursuing their own different agendas. See celebration weekends!

Hi Andrew
Just a note to say how much we enjoyed our stay in Scotland. The
standard of accommodation and location was perfect, couldn't ask for more in a short break, the rain did not deter us at all, the Boys enjoyed the Golf and I enjoyed the break. We will definitely return next year, probably at the end of March before the Easter rush commences. The Boys can go golfing and I will definitely go sight seeing.

Hello Andrew, Just a quick wee email to tank you for a fantastic place to stay in St Andrews.  I don’t think that I have experienced such a relaxing and welcoming atmosphere anywhere on the planet.  I stayed in cottage two with my mum,dad, gran and girlfriend Vicki.  A Brilliant time was had by us all.  I feel like I have found somewhere very special to Holiday.

All the best,

Gillian Smith, East Kilbride. We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend at your cottages and we were all very impressed with the standard of accommodation - you have thought of everything which with a young family in tow is a welcome change to most places. I know my mother-in-law has already been singing your praises to friends and we are trying to get a weekend sorted out too.

Thank you again for an enjoyable experience and I hope to be seeing you soon.
