St. Andrews hostels

There is plenty to see and do in the small town of St. Andrews. Of course, the most popular attraction to St. Andrews is the golf courses, so if you’re an avid golfer, staying in one of St. Andrews hostels may be the perfect way to save a little money for your green fees. Staying on the golf course at the hotel can be a bit expensive, so hostels are a great way to stay in town but not spend a lot of money on accommodation. If you enjoy looking over green countryside rather than playing on it, check out Scooniehill Farm House B&B, it has panoramic views of the countryside and a short drive to the city center.

If you’re traveling solo or with a group, possibly to visit a friend or family member at the University of St Andrews, a hostel is also a great option to stay close to the campus, without the big price tag of a nice hotel. A great option for St. Andrews hostels is Dundee Backpackers Hostel. It’s only a short walk to the university and within walking distance from attractions in town like the city’s square or contemporary arts center.

While enjoying your vacation in St. Andrews, you may want to visit places like the golf museum, as St. Andrews is known to be the home of golf, or take a stroll through the St. Andrews Botanical Garden. Scotland Beds Hostel is an ideal option as it is located close to the city center and major attractions.

If you love food and enjoying afternoons walking around the city or relaxing at Dudhope Park, staying in St. Andrews Hostels keep you right in the middle of the action, with restaurants of all cuisines within walking distance, pass by the university and visit the campus, or enjoy historical spots like the different monuments around the city such as the Desperate Dan Statue or the Adam Duncan Statue. To stay close to all the action, check out The New Inn on Saint Marys Street. There are also fountains, churches, and cemeteries to explore on foot. When you have tired from all the afternoon walking and sightseeing, make sure to grab a relaxing seat and pint at St. Andrews Brewing Co. on your way back to your hostel.
