This was the fourth year in a row I’ve stayed at Montague House on golfing trips - the first time on my own and for the past three with a group of friends. On every occasion the owner, Raj, has been fantastic to deal with, both before and during our stay. It’s only a 10-minute walk carrying your clubs to the first tee of The Old Course, so it is perfectly positioned. The guest house has been given a Scottish feel and is warm and welcoming; the rooms are neat and clean with decent showers. (The twin/double room sizes vary quite a bit . . . my tip is to see if Room 3 is available if you’re sharing - even a snorer will be far enough away not to bother you too much.) In the summer months, when the seagulls are particularly active early in the morning, Raj offers earplugs for anyone who might find this noise - common throughout the town - a problem. Breakfast time is fun, with tables of golfers shaking off their night before, and there are plenty of options to choose from, as well as the usual “Full Scottish”. Parking is free, but competitive, on the street outside and nearby . . . with patience, a space has always appeared for us. I’ve no doubt we’ll be back again next year, enjoying our stay and a few rounds on the hallowed ground of St Andrews.
