The room was large and well kept, the bathtoom though updated had plaster peeling from the ceiling (If the fan had its own switch/supply instead of needing the lights to be on for it to run this could help). The main hotel was well maintained .Staff very friendly and helpful.

It is a charming hotel with a warm and welcoming staff! This was my second stay at Rufflets and it felt like my home away from home. It has a fantastic restaurant, lovely rooms, beautiful grounds, and a wonderful staff that is always happy to help. All of this at a very reasonable price.

Cozy hotel just outside of St.Andrews

Hotel was very cozy, about 2-3 km outside of St. Andrews. Loved the breakfast buffet, with cozy outdoor seating by the beautiful gardens.

The Staff at this hotel stand out from many other hotels we e stayed in. They were friendly and courteous at all time and may our stay feel very warm and inviting. Thanks to Lewis, Natalie and Sarah to name the ones I got but every single member of staff that we spoke to but don’t get their names were equally important. The food was pretty amazing too and our bedroom although a little tired was very comfortable and as warm as we wanted it to be. We had a lovely few days away and will definitely return again soon. Thank you to each an everyone of the Rufflets Team we had a great time.
