The Arran - Timeless elegance, thoughtfully restored
The Arran is a beautifully restored boutique townhouse where classic St Andrews character meets contemporary comfort. Just moments from the world-famous Old Course and West Sands Beach, The Arran offers 15 individually designed rooms and suites, each created with a distinctive sense of style and an emphasis on comfort.
From sumptuous bedding and award-winning DUX beds to Arran Aromatics toiletries, complimentary treats and Nespresso coffee, every detail has been thoughtfully chosen to make your stay feel special.
For something truly memorable, the Mezzanine Suite unfolds over two levels, with a generous en-suite bathroom and private terrace. It is a peaceful space to unwind after a day on the links or exploring the town.
Breakfast at Couthie St Andrews
Guests booking directly with The Arran enjoy complimentary breakfast at Couthie St Andrews (formerly known as Bibi's) from April to October, just a two-minute stroll from the house. Expect fresh, locally sourced ingredients, classic Scottish favourites, artisan pastries, seasonal fruit and expertly prepared teas and coffees. It is an unhurried and delicious way to begin a day in St Andrews.
Andrean House - Your own private townhouse in St Andrews
For those seeking the freedom and privacy of an entire home, Andrean House offers an exceptional exclusive-use townhouse in the very heart of St Andrews.
Just 250 yards from the first tee of the Old Course and a five-minute walk from the town centre, this beautifully renovated three-storey home combines the character of a traditional St Andrews townhouse with the comfort and style of contemporary living. At its heart is a welcoming open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, opening onto a private garden terrace. It is an inviting setting for morning coffee, leisurely lunches or evening drinks after a day on the links.
Andrean House accommodates up to ten guests across five bedrooms: four king/twin en-suite rooms and a double bedroom with private shower room. Each room has been designed for comfort, with DUXIANA beds, premium linens and Highland Soap toiletries. Ideal for golfing parties, families and groups of friends, Andrean House offers the rare opportunity to experience St Andrews with your own private townhouse as a luxurious and relaxed base.
Nina
Excellent location, very clean and spacious room with stunning decor! The staff were friendly, check in and out was very straightforward. Although in the centre of St Andrews it was a very peaceful and quiet space with good parking round about
Andrea
By far the best hotel I have stayed at in Scotland. Every detail is well thought from eye masks/shades, black out shutters, amazing bathroom amenities, fresh milk for tea/coffee, high quality linen (obsessed with the pillows and how comfortable the bed was) and overall design. Charlie was quick to answer any questions we had prior to our arrival. Honestly, there was nothing we could fault and we look forward to visiting again soon.
David
A perfect location for exploring St Andrews. On a quiet side street between North Street and the seashore. The room was large and very comfortable and the bathroom was terrifically spacious. Staff were very friendly and helpful at check in and departure
Janet
'We cannot say enough wonderful things about our stay at The Arran. We stayed in The Jones Suite. The super king bed was insanely comfortable, huge/beautiful bathroom, and the absolute best customer service. Breakfast at Bibi’s each morning was such a treat, and it was just a short walk downtown to shops and restaurants, the sea, and most importantly, the golf! Thank you for the amazing hospitality'
