Welcome to St Andrews

St Andrews holds a special place in Scotland's history. It takes its name from the Apostle whose relics, legend tells us, were brought to this place in antiquity by St Rule. Scotland later adopted St Andrew as her patron saint and took his saltire cross for her flag.  St Andrews university, founded in 1410-11, is the third oldest in Britain. As you might expect, St Andrews offers a vast choice of hotels, restaurants, pubs and cafes for eating out. Whether you prefer a high class hotel restaurant or the ambience of an eatery popular with the student population, you'll never need to eat in the same place twice.

The Home of Golf

For many visitors, it's a game that draws them here, for St Andrews is the home of golf, the sport having been played here for some 600 years. The Old Course is arguably the most famous golf course in the world, and the Royal and Ancient Golf Club is still the ruling body for the rules of golf. Fittingly, the Old Course hosted the Open during the millennium year and did so again in 2005.

Welcome to Dundee

Dundee - City of Discovery is the jewel of North East of Scotland. In a setting on the banks of the River Tay described by actor and raconteur Stephen Fry as 'ludicrously ideal'.
