Superb golf courses have always been synonymous with St Andrews, the legendary "Home of Golf." At Fairmont St Andrews 5* they have combined the skills, expertise and personalities of Gene Sarazen, Bruce Devlin and Sam Torrance to create a magnificent golf resort boasting two cliff top courses that embody that special association called The Kittocks and The Torrance. While the Torrance is of tournament pedigree having played host to Open Championship Final Qualifying, the European Senior Tour and Europro, The Kittocks Course provides a fantastic test and features some stunning cliff top holes with vistas across St. Andrews Bay.

This as yet, undiscovered gem begins by innocently easing the golfer into a false sense of security, offering wide, well manicured fairways that wind around man-made water features and risky bunkers, teasing the golfer with a mix of par fours and fives. The Torrance Course, designed by the late Gene Sarazen and winning Ryder Cup Captain, Sam Torrance, is a par 72, 7037 yard course that sweeps its way around the hotel and down to the coastal edge.

It has been designed using the principles of links golf with an infusion of new styles. The natural contours of the land and the dramatic coastal setting are combined with a unique blend of Rye grass, innovative green-keeping skills and the expertise of winning Ryder Cup captain, Sam Torrance.

Sitting on the summit of a spectacular formation, the hotel and its two championship golf courses have breathtaking panoramic views of the River Tay estuary, the North Sea and the medieval skyline of St Andrews. Dedicated to exceeding your expectations, Fairmont St Andrews 5* prides itself on offering an unwavering commitment to service and attention to detail. There are two types of accommodation at Fairmont St Andrews 5* - the Guest Rooms and the Manor Homes. Each of the 209 spacious guestrooms are blessed with both style and functionality and offer the latest in room amenities. The Manor Homes are modern open plan design, situated next to the 7th fairway of the Torrance Course, sharing the same breathtaking views as the resort.

Each Manor Home has four large en-suite bedrooms, a farmhouse style kitchen, luxurious living room, dining room and a fully equipped business office. The hotels also offers a European-style health spa with full range of body and beauty treatments, including Swedish massage, deep cleansing facial, hydrotherapy bath, paraffin wrap, salt glow with Vichy shower massage, and thalassotherapy exfoliation.
