A luxury Scottish staycation is just what we need. Which is incredibly fortunate, because this summer, a whole new luxury hotel collection is opening on the Scottish coast at three of the world’s most iconic golf courses. Say hello to Marine & Lawn Hotels & Resorts. 

The new luxury hotel brand will open three beautiful new Scottish golf hotels, with the Rusacks St Andrews and Marine North Berwick resorts opening their doors this summer, followed by the Marine Troon in 2022.
