Stayed here one night on a business trip to Dundee…read more It's a little bit out from the centre, but well-appointed. Clean. Neat. Warm. Fairly quiet (depends on the other guests, really). Super nice landlord, totally decent food, and comfortable beds. If there's one thing they may need, it's better water pressure. But this is, after all, Britain.

Absolute dump of a guesthouse which is badly run by an obnoxious old woman. There was no breakfast…read moreon offer when I stayed but I was still expected to pay the full price. My room was horrible: an ancient kettle which was unsafe to use as it had no on/off switch, set up right underneath a TV and overcrowded multi-socket extension lead - basically an accident waiting to happen. Unwashed coffee cups and glasses. Coffee and tea sachets and biscuits which were years out of date. Uncomfortable bed with smelly linen. The fridge didn't work properly either. No hot water! Dirty shared bathroom with dirty bath and dangerous shower with wonky controls - genuine scald risk. Unreliable WiFi with bad signal. But the worst issue here was the elderly proprietor herself. Her attitude and behaviour are disgraceful. She is insolent and rude towards guests, she invites herself into guests' locked bedrooms and messes about with their belongings, she accuses guests of "being up and making a noise at night" when they haven't done, and she uses fabricated stories like this as an excuse for telling guests they aren't welcome to extend their agreed stay(As if anyone would want to extend their stay in a place this bad anyway). She clearly isn't fit to run a guesthouse in any case. This place should've been shut down on Health & Safety grounds years ago. As it is, please DO NOT stay here when there are plenty of much better hotels and guesthouses in the surrounding area. You deserve better!!

I stayed at Linksview for three nights at the end of March while on a golf trip to Scotland. First…read moreoff, let me say that the location is perfect if you want to play Carnoustie Golf Links...right across the street from the 18th fairway. I shared a room with a colleague (two single beds) and it was comfortable with all of the amenities you would expect from a Scottish B&B. Beds were comfortable, room was of a good size (not THAT large though) and the bath was excellent with good water pressure. Breakfast was hearty and well situated, in a room overlooking the golf course. Internet service was excellent and there were plenty of electrical outlets (important in this day of electronics). All in all, an excellent B&B. But wait, there's more! In setting up my golf trip, I was in constant contact with Phil, the proprietor, who was VERY helpful in booking tee times and finding out about golf. Considering the time difference, it was great to have him make the calls locally and establish the bookings. We paid for our green fees through Phil, so that made it even more simple. Phil was understanding of our needs and was very accessible. When we arrived, it was as if Phil and June (our hosts) were old friends. Now, a bit about Carnoustie. The town is not exactly brimming with the nightlife of a major metropolis (or even St. Andrews). There are a handful of restaurants and not extensive shopping. The best thing is that the town is an excellent base of operations if you want to do a day trip to Aberdeen (we played Cruden Bay) about two hours north. As mentioned, Carnoustie Championship is across the street, Carnoustie Burnside is down the street and you can find some additional great golf at Montrose Medal (twenty minutes north) and Panmure (five minutes away in Barry) so if you want to plan a few rounds in the area, Linksview is perfect. A couple things to note. The Linksview does not have any kind of common room to hang out in when not in your room. They do have a room to store golf clubs or dry your gear. Parking is easy and accessible (on street or in a lot across the street). As mentioned, Carnoustie is not an epicurean paradise....we dined at the Carnoustie Hotel and that was fine, stopped at the local pizzeria (standard) and had a fine lunch at a place called Franco's. At any rate, if you are a golfer, you can't go wrong with the Linksview Guest House. On the cost side, the room tariff was extremely fair for the season. One word of warning...the last four holes at Carnoustie are brutally difficult. They don't call it Carnasty without reason!

The Deveron House is owned and run by the kindest most warm -hearted people we could ever imagine…read more Marion and Graham are lovely and go above and beyond in every aspect of their service. The breakfast is delicious, they clean everything spotless every day, they make sure you get to know the other guests and make friends and they will even sit down with you and help you lan and negotiate the crazy Scottish roads. It is located very conveniently across from St. Salvator's church of St. Andrews University. A 5 minute walk to the Old Course and 2 minutes to the cathedral and castle ruins. The whole town is in walking distance. The "small double" actually has a queen size bed so don't be misled. There is also free wifi. We will definitely be staying with them in the future!!
