“This is a property that understands the brief: championship golf and luxurious relaxation overlooking St Andrews Bay. The on-site golf courses certainly appeal, as does the shuttle service into town. I think the blend of stunning coastal views and extensive spa facilities makes it a very attractive option for a Scottish escape.”
