no need to book specially (or at least until closer to the time), they just lay them on when the Open is at St Andrews. Bus is just a free shuttle between Leuchars (the train station) and the Course.
Dundee is largely sold out - Booking.com has a bed and breakfast at £76 and a room at the Fort Hotel in Broughty Ferry at £240 plus one other hotel at £320. Expedia has nothing in Dundee for staying the Friday night.
There's that verge on the way to the airport, maybe Able to get a tent there by the sounds of it
Depends if the funfair (or the moveable caravan park) is there that week
I thought they had built a few new hotels in the centre where that office block /flyover was? If Dundee is sold out can't be much chance of anywhere closer by the sounds of it.
No that's a large grass area 'Slessor Gardens', they have open air gigs, events there, there's been a big wheel and ice rink etc. there over the festive period - will have a couple of office blocks around it and a new esports arena too eventually.
Last time I was there it was still boarded up. Thought there was plans for a couple of hotels, there was one next to the Discovery if I remember rightly. Was at a council meeting a few years ago with the Airport manager and they had appeared to have some big plans for hotels and attracting tourism to Dundee. Mind last time I was there the v&a wasn't built
Ah there is a new hotel above the railway station and the one next to the Discovery on way to airport has been rebuilt (was already a hotel/motel) - all full according to the usual booking sites though.
That's what I had booked, shame I didn't get tickets in the ballot
