Inspired by land, sea, and the Celtic lore of myths and magic, the Spa at Fairmont St Andrews prides itself on being a complete leisure experience from the state-of-the-art gym, 16-metre pool, sauna, and steam room, to the more relaxed elements of treatments and therapies.
In 10 treatment rooms, therapists use a combination of ESPA products and Ishga Skincare, famous for its use of hand-harvested seaweed from Hebridean Islands off the North West coast of Scotland. Using these, therapists offer a combination of holistic treatments including facials, massages, manicures, pedicures, wraps, and scrubs, all from the hotel’s picture-perfect position looking out across the sea.
In a lofty position on the cliffs above St Andrew’s Bay, the five-star Fairmont St Andrews has gained a well-deserved reputation as one of Scotland’s most exquisite destinations. Set within 520-acre, it has 209 sumptuous rooms and suites, many of which overlook the surrounding championship golf courses. It is also just a few minutes from its namesake - the famous university town attended by Prince William and the Princess of Wales.
Providing a variety of dining experiences, food is a key part of the agenda at this hotel, from a traditional afternoon tea complete with finger sandwiches and cakes in The Atrium with its glass roof, to Scottish dining with a twist in the main restaurant, The Squire; hearty lunches or evening cocktails in Kittocks Den; or Mediterranean fare in Esperante.
