Kohler Waters Spa | Old Course Hotel
Kohler Waters Spa at The Old Course St Andrews has benefited from a facelift of late.
Gone is the dark tiling in the main spa pool area and in its place is a light, airy design that makes the most of the natural light.
Just perfect for unwinding in and lifting any dull mood.
The treatment menu has had an overhaul, too, with a host of new luxurious options.
The Rose Quartz & Truffles Body Ritual involves a top-to-toe massage, combining TempleSpa’s restorative Truffle skincare range with Gua Sha rose quartz techniques for detoxification and reducing puffiness.
The result? The kind of lit-from-within glow that gets you compliments for days afterwards.
Head to the spa restaurant afterwards to enjoy a glass of champers (or two!) and delicious light nibbles like the trio of crostini above.
