Have wondrous winter break at Fairmont St Andrews
Let Fairmont St Andrews get you in the mood for Christmas this December with the return of its magical skating rink and a Santa’s gingerbread grotto on the hotel’s picturesque grounds.
Guests and visitors can celebrate the season in a traditional winter wonderland from December 8 until January 6 as they glide across the ice against the beautiful backdrop of the Fife landscape; and with the rink open until 9pm, you can even skate under the stars!
For the first time, the five-star resort will host Santa’s gingerbread grotto from December 8 until December 23. Admission fees will apply to both the skating rink and Santa’s grotto, so check the website for further details. Booking in advance is recommended.
Throughout December, enjoy a Festive Savoy Afternoon Tea – a magical menu of yuletide treats courtesy of the hotel’s executive pastry chef and his team.
Join us for a night to remember on December 8 and December 14 for Christmas party nights featuring a DJ party night and The Ultimate Jersey Boys Tribute Night. From £65pp you can look forward to a glass of prosecco on arrival, a fantastic three-course festive meal followed by musical entertainment. Preferred room rates start from £129 (single/double occupancy). Booking in advance is essential, so contact the events team at sab.events@fairmont.com to reserve your space now.
Between December 24 and 26, indulge in two nights’ luxury accommodation from £319 per adult. Highlights include a full Scottish breakfast, a Christmas Day lunch buffet and presents from Santa for every child. An extensive festive family activity schedule is available including family cinema nights, Christmas crafts, reindeer hunt and letters to Santa.
Combat those post-Christmas blues with a mid-festive break. Unwind in luxury accommodation with stunning views of the surrounding landscape and pamper yourself at the spa – rates from £199 per room, per night. And you can choose from Hogmanay packages at the award-winning St Andrews Bar & Grill, the Squire or Italian restaurant La Cucina.
