THE OLD COURSE HOTEL
| Description: |
We have all seen the shot when watching the British Open at the Old Course. The leader steps onto the tee on #17, the Road Hole, and is forced to hit his drive blindly towards the fairway over a building that sticks precariously out onto the course. THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is the Old Course Hotel. The most luxurious hotel in St. Andrews, the Old Course Hotel is where you stay to experience St. Andrews in style. Just remember to keep your head down if you wander out onto the rooftop observatory overlooking the Road Hole. |
| Golf Course Name: |
Carnoustie |
| Description: |
Do you remember where you were when Jan Van de Velde rolled up his pants and hopped into the water on Carnoustie's treacherous eighteenth hole during the 1999 British Open? Along with Doug Sanders missing a three-foot put at the eighteenth on the Old Course during the 1970 Open (ultimately losing to Jack Nicklaus the following day in an eighteen-hole playoff), this is perhaps the most famous image of the modern Open era. Often lost amidst the hyperbole, however, is the simple fact that Carnoustie is the single most difficult golf course in the world. You will remember this experience for years to come. |

St. Andrews Old Course |
| Description: |
Most recently the host of the 2000 British Open Championship, the Old Course has an aura unto itself. You will likely remember your round more for moments such as crossing the Swilken Bridge and playing your tee shot on the Road Hole than for your score. Guaranteed tee times are scarce,however, so plan early. All persons wishing to secure a guaranteed tee time by any method other than applying to the St. Andrews Links Trust should be aware that a premium is placed on these times, which will be reflected in the price. Please contact a sales representative with any questions you may have about our method of obtaining tee times and the impact this has on pricing. |

St. Andrews New Course |
| Description: |
The New Course, along with the Jubilee Course (Par 72, 6805), is a fitting compliment to its older and more famous sibling. If you and your group merely want a taste of legendary St. Andrews without the expense of securing a guaranteed tee time at the Old Course, the New and Jubilee courses are your answer. Both courses typically are available for play if you decide to place your name in the daily ballot for Old Course tee times and are unsuccessful. Please note that many packages will require one round of golf at either the New or Jubilee courses when obtaining an Old Course time. |

Kingsbarns Golf Links |
| Description: |
Opened in July of 2000, Kingsbarns is the newest links course in the British Isles, and already considered to be one of the best. Reminiscent of Pebble Beach or Turnberry for its dramatic seaside setting, Kingsbarns has been named by Golf Digest as its Best New International Course, and has already been proclaimed as one of Golf Magazine's top courses. We were lucky enough to place one of our clients on Kingsbarns on its official opening day (the Monday following the 2000 British Open), and he returned to the U.S. saying it was the best course he had ever played. |

Gleneagles King's Course |
| Description: |
The five-star Gleneagles Resort is home to three world-class parkland golf courses, the most famous of which is the King's Course. The King's Course has hosted several European PGA tournaments, including the Scottish Open, and along with Druids Glen near Dublin is the best of the parkland courses in the British Isles. As to the other courses at Gleneagles, the Queens course is perhaps the best course for high-handicappers, while the Nicklaus-designed Monarch course has some of the most spectacular scenery of the three, and allows golf carts (rare for Scotland). |

CARNOUSTIE GOLF COURSE HOTEL
| Description: |
The Carnoustie Golf Course Hotel was opened just prior to the 1999 Open Championship and sits majestically atop the 1st tee and 18th green of the championship course. Complete with 75 bedrooms and 10 elegant suites, the property also provides guests with a health spa and fantastic dining. The lounge is one of our favorite hotel lounges in the entire country, with dark wood, a great collection of malt whiskey and an awesome view of the course. We would also rate this property as a low five-star as opposed to the four-star rating it received from the Scottish Tourist Board. |

RUSACKS HOTEL
| Description: |
Overlooking the 18th fairway of the Old Course, the Rusacks commands perhaps the greatest view in all of golf. No other hotel provides such a combination of luxury, atmosphere and value as the Rusacks, which has been voted as one of the top ten golf hotels in the world. We see the benefit of staying here (as opposed to the Old Course Hotel) as similar to that of the Macdonald Holyrood versus The Balmoral in Edinburgh. Wake up, have some breakfast and walk to the starter's house at the Old Course. What could be better? |

ALBANY HOTEL
| Description: |
Peacefully situated in the heart of historic St. Andrews on North Street, this elegant Georgian twin building (circa 1795) is close to the castle, cathedral, university and of course the Old Course. The property consists of 21 well-appointed rooms (see inset) and a residents' lounge with a log fire for cold Scottish nights. We put several clients into this property throughout 2000, all of whom returned to recommend it for future groups. When considering one of the many three-star properties in St. Andrews, we consider a positive recommendation important. |

BELLCRAIG GUEST HOTEL
| Description: |
A quaint six-room inn in the heart of historic St. Andrews, the Bellcraig is a favorite spot for groups making the trek to Scotland to test their skills on the Old Course. Only a five-minute walk to the starter's stand, the Bellcraig has recently been renovated to provide all of the modern amenities expected for an international destination, yet retains the charm of a small Scottish guest house. All rooms have color television, hair dryers, radio alarms and hospitality trays. A great value and a comfortable place to stay. |

GLENEAGLES
| Description: |
Gleneagles is occasionally criticized for being too "American," but it is hard to argue with the luxurious surroundings and first-class amenities this resort offers its guests. At Gleneagles you will not only find three beautiful parkland golf courses, but Scotland's best shooting range, falconry and an indoor equestrian facility. Like any resort ranked among the best in the world, you will pay a little more than elsewhere but will receive service worth additional cost. Gleneagles is also our pick for larger corporate groups in need of meeting space as well as entertainment. |
