Rufflets St Andrews
Welcome pack, dogs in the bar and on the terrace, 10 acres of gardens
This hotel is part of the Daisy Curated Collection. Its information has been researched and verified, but Daisy has not yet personally stayed here. When she does, this page will be upgraded to a full Daisy Verified inspection.
What we've verified
Ten acres of private gardens to walk before breakfast. The Lade Braes path into St Andrews starts close by, Craigtoun Country Park is about a mile away, and West Sands is a 10 minute drive.
Only four external bedrooms take dogs, so book direct to be sure of one.
How the welcome translates in person, at dinner and around the hotel. That's what a Daisy stay will confirm.
GBP 25, Per night per dog, maximum two dogs per booking
What we've confirmed, at a glance.
Verified with the hotel, honestly marked.
Dogs are permitted in the public areas of the main hotel, apart from the restaurant and the Drawing Room. They can join you for meals in the bar or on the terrace. Dog bedrooms are the four in the external accommodation, and dogs aren't allowed in any other bedroom.
Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
Everything, without the wall of text.
