Hi & welcome on the St Andrews page!
St Andrews is a middle age town with the oldest university of Scotland and the ruins of one of the most important gothic cathedrals of that time at the east coast of Scotland. For those, who play golf... it's where all the rules are made. And we have two North Sea beaches.
