West Sands Beach - St Andrews - Luxury Lodges at Drumcarrow

Our
Story

Our lodges are just the latest addition to Drumcarrow but our story dates back to 1956 when our family ran a dairy, arable and sheep farm.

Our family has worked on this land for over six decades, enjoying the location and scenery - day in and day out. And now, we are so excited to share with you.

Back in 1956, our family took over the land at Drumcarrow and began farming. First operating as a dairy farm and later making the move to sheep and arable.

We are now in their 4th generation of the family, working on the land and developing the family business.

Since the beginning, our family’s values have been at the centre of everything we have done: our reputation means everything, and the family always strives for the highest quality and service.
