For those of us who only want the best that life has to offer when we go on vacation, here is a Resort Golf Schools of America location at a very special place, the birthplace of golf itself, St. Andrews, Scotland. When Don & Nancy Panoz, the visionary founders of Château Élan Hotels & Resorts, discovered a breathtaking cliff-top location overlooking the legendary Home of Golf they set out to create Scotland's newest resort destination - St Andrews Bay. The Resort was designed in keeping with the historic nature of the area as Don and Nancy were dedicated to preserving the landscape's natural beauty, stunning vistas and the spirit and traditions of the game of golf. In doing so, they have managed to instil this sense of pride and history throughout every aspect of the hotel.
This International Resort opened in the summer of 2001 and continues the reputation of Château Élan Hotels & Resorts in providing a standard of service and attention to detail that are our hallmarks and truly create the 'Subtle Difference of Excellence.'
Five Star Resort:
St Andrews Bay Golf Resort & Spa is the premier destination in Scotland. 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, St Andrews Bay prides itself on offering an unwavering commitment to service and attention to detail. From the pristine fairways of our golf courses to the Grand Ballroom of our conference facilities it is a philosophy that pervades every corner of our 520 acres.
The Clubhouse:
Strategically positioned as the heart between the Torrance and the Devlin, the Clubhouse sits elevated, keeping watch over both courses and golfers. The surrounding decked balcony allows you to soak up every inch of this stunning panoramic setting whilst providing a birds-eye view for spectators and players alike.
The Torrance Course:
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.
The Devlin Course:
Bruce Devlin's experience and expertise have provided the Devlin with its innovative and exciting character. It is a truly magnificent 72par, 7,049 yard championship course that sweeps its way along the rugged seaside landscape. 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.
Chateau Elan Spa:
Our 6 luxurious, sound proof treatment rooms offer you a haven so you can relax and be truly pampered, whilst enjoying one of our sublime treatments from a strawberry herbal back cleanse to a Japanese silk booster facial, so you leave completely rejuvenated and ready to face what lies ahead. Should you wish to feel completely indulged then our Spa Days create the complete head to toe treatment.
