Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in St Andrews

great location! market street is about as loud as you'd expect - people early morning and late at night, seagulls through the day, cars all hours of the night. got used to the noise quite quickly. very close to shops and arts buildings.

You can roll out of bed and into the union. The bass from 601 was audible in my room but this is actually quite good if you want to be able to hear Cascada without leaving your bed

Nice to be near the beach, far away from literally everything else, no good transport links.

Lovely small town neighbourhood, interesting experience for some time. Everyone knows each other, quite a unique overall experience, but definitely a good way to focus on studying.

The local are would be relatively nice, however it is completely ruined by the neighbours being, while friendly, very loud and with very low hygienic standards and practiced no social distancing during the lockdown. Trash can easily pile up in the bins if the tenants don't take out them out regularly. Noise is usually limited at during the morning and afternoon, but sometimes can go on until the early morning. All of this is more relevant for someone who is planning to work mostly from home.

One of the best locations. It is about 3 minutes from the gym, 7 from North Haugh. This is perfect if you are a science student. Also, there is a bus stop right outside which is handy when the weather is bad or you want to go some place else.

It is a 5-10 minute walk from town. The street is okay lit, but it often has high school kids walking around who can be quite bothersome. Personally, I don't feel safe walking back to the place too late at night because of the kids.

Could have been a bit closer to town, otherwise perfect, friendly neighbours, people in building generally got along well although some like to play loud music way too late.

Nice area, quiet but close to main town so easy to get to classes and lectures for university.

So close to everything. For St Andrews you have everything that you could want from this house. Private parking spot, access to Lade Braes path, off of South Street but still very private, your own garden. Quiet local neighbors and the bus station 5 minute walk away. Everything is accessible by foot.
