Visiting St Andrews by public transport? Leuchars is the nearest train station (pronounced loo-kers). Busses arrive every 15 minutes to bring you to sunny St Andrews - here's a video of just how easy it is to reach Yorkston on foot from the bus station. (Also shows how close we are to the Argyle Street car parks!)

This weekend is your last chance to pop along to the Largo Arts Week 2024. Only a short 20 minute drive from St Andrew there's a whole load on offer. Famous for being the birth place of Alexander Selkirk 1676, who was the inspiration for Daniel Defoe's "Robinson Crusoe", it's a village you will adore.

📢 Overnight queueing for single golfers to be scrapped for the Old Course 📢

The Links Trust have announced that from the 12th March 2023 there will be a change to how single players are able to try and obtain a tee time on the Old Course. There will no longer be the traditional in-person overnight queueing system.

In its place there will be a digital solution known at the “Singles Daily Draw”. This will manage the allocation of any on-the day tee times which may become available by giving the golfers the chance of securing a time by joining with existing groups of two or three pre-booked golfers.

Single players will be able to enter the draw between 9am and 5pm on the day before they wish to play at either The Old Pavilion or Links Clubhouse. A randomised draw will then take place at 5pm with golfers being notified by SMS message and email whether they have been allocated a tee time for the following day without the need to queue for lengthy periods.
