“We wish Ivan the best with this Hotel, which has been a popular venue for events and weddings.”
The agent previously said: “The hotel has a good mix of leisure and corporate clients and the wider region is popular with golfers with a number of championship grade links courses within easy reach including St Andrews, Kingsbarns, LevenLinks, Dumbarnie and Ladybank.
“The hotel is well known locally as a wedding venue, with the function room able to accommodate 120 guests.
“The function room is separate from the lounge bar and dining room and can therefore cater for private events as well as running the hotel’s day-to-day business for hotel guests or drop-in customers.”
