The five-star Fairmont St Andrews resort has opened the doors to two exclusive Manor Homes with luxury renovations and concepts in partnership with esteemed interior designer Russell Sage, who has previously partnered with other prestigious properties such as The Savoy, Zetter Townhouse and The Fife Arms on interior design projects.
The Manor Homes offer bespoke residential retreats perfectly tailored for a ‘home from home’ family break, golf weekend, spa getaway, or countryside gathering with friends. Guests can now immerse themselves in the opulence and comfort of these remarkable accommodations as Fairmont St Andrews continues to elevate its offerings for a truly unforgettable stay.
The first Manor Home, ‘Queenask’, is purposed for luxury family escapes, with the second, ‘Kingask’, designed as the perfect location for elegant social gatherings. Both aptly named and fit for royalty, the two homes sit adjacent to each other within the resort’s 520-acre grounds and are within walking distance of the main hotel, offering easy access to the resort’s facilities.
Guests of both homes are invited to enjoy all of the resort’s restaurants and bars, or for those looking for something more exclusive, guests can indulge in a personalised private dining experience prepared by a private chef. To curate a tailored made experience, a “house caddie” is assigned exclusively to each home to provide an individual approach to the needs and desires of every guest.
“The Manor Homes offer an enhanced luxury residential experience complimented by designs and layouts which emanate the feeling of warmth, homely comfort and relaxation in the Home of Golf. Both homes embody quintessential modern Scottish luxury and provide a private and cosy escape on the doorstep of the hotel’s vibrant atmosphere”, said Kai Winkler, General Manager, Fairmont St Andrews.
“I am delighted to contribute to the renovation of the Manor Homes at Fairmont St.Andrews”, said Russell Sage. “The homes reflect the exciting, evolving vision at Fairmont and celebrate the brand’s unique appeal in this historic Scottish location.”
