Boston, Massachusetts

My fiancé and I stayed for 6 nights in The White Lodge in St Andrews. This B&B had just opened 3 weeks before our arrival.

Our hosts, Sheila and Paul, were the warmest hosts we have ever encountered. Sheila, who has been an interior designer, decorated the White Lodge in warm colors, creating a relaxing but also modern atmosphere. We stayed in a unique room, which was actually a suite with a private entrance. Downstairs, there was a kitchen and a living room; upstairs the bedroom and a beautiful and very functional bathroom.

The key feature of the White Lodge is the hospitality of the hosts. We had never ever experienced such hospitality! Their passion for being good hosts became immediately apparent. Right after we arrived, Sheila offered us a drive to our appointment. We found this extremely kind. Also, we really enjoyed talking with them about the area. Moreover, on the day of our arrival, they installed wireless internet because we had enquired about possible Internet access. To our great surprise, they invited us for a dinner with them on our last evening. This was surely one of the highlights of our stay. We felt so sad when we had to say goodbye.

The breakfast with candlelights (!) was a fantastic way to start our day. Besides a banquet, Sheila prepared delicious eggs with mushrooms, tomatoes, bacon, and sausages. One day she had bought smoked salmon to treat us!

The B&B is only a short walk to the city centre of St Andrews. (about 10 min).

The White Lodge had not yet been graded when we were there. It seemed however very likely that they will receive the highest grade (5 stars) as everything was so perfect.

During and after our stay we just could not stop talking to other people about the White Lodge. We definitely recommend this B&B!!
