The hotel within each category that you will stay in depends on your own requirements and the tee times allocated to you. We will always accommodate you in hotels conveniently located for golf.

Budget Hotels. These are small family run bed and breakfast accommodations, usually with no more than a half dozen rooms, all with private facilities, usually a shower. Start the day in the cosy breakfast room where your friendly host may offer a few pointers on local sightseeing, pubs and restaurants. A charming experience which is budget, but only in price.

Guest Houses & Small Hotels offering a very personal touch from the owner/manager. All rooms are en suite with either a shower or full bath.

St Andrews Old and New Golf Courses

Playing the Old Course is one of the greatest experiences in golf, it has played host to the greatest golfers in the world and produced many of golf's dramatic moments. Wide double fairways, seven extensive double greens, and a multitude of intimidating bunkers are just some of the unique features you will encounter.

Somewhat in the shade of its more famous neighbour the New courses is not new it was built in 1895 and many argue is a better test of golf than the Old Course. Certainly your ability to use all your clubs will be well tested as you attempt to conquer this championship links course. The course lies parallel to the Old Course and stray shots may have to be recovered from the Old Course itself. There are rolling, undulating fairways, fast and hidden greens, thick gorse and the ever-present testing wind. The New Course offers a different challenge to the Old but should be included in any golfing itinerary without question.

Carnoustie Golf Course

No one quite agrees about the origins of Carnoustie some say 1839, but others would have it as early as 1835. Several designers have been involved but it is James Wright who is credited with having produced the “toughest finishing stretch in golf.” Carnoustie has hosted the British Open on seven occasions and considered by many to be the most challenging of all Open venues. While the links is relatively flat it is exposed to the elements. A combination of length and accuracy are required from the tee and approach shots demand precision to the greens heavily guarded by steep bunkers and burns.
