How to Legally
Rent Your Home for
the 2027 St Andrews Open

Welcome the world to Fife without the stress. From navigating the temporary short-term let rules to finding the perfect guests, St Andrews Wee Holiday Company makes hosting easy, safe, and highly rewarding.

Step 1:
Secure Your Legal Exemption

You don't need a permanent 3-year landlord licence to host for The Open. Fife Council offers a specific Temporary Exemption for up to 6 weeks. We handle the paperwork, submit the application on your behalf, and track its progress so you are 100% legally compliant.

Step 2: Pass the Safety Checks

Before guests arrive, Scottish law requires basic safety standards. We coordinate our trusted local tradespeople to complete the essentials for you:

Fire: Interlinked smoke and heat alarms.

Gas: Annual Gas Safety Certificate.

Electric: EICR and PAT testing for plugged-in appliances.

Water: Legionella Risk Assessment.

Energy: Valid EPC rating.

Step 3: Match with the Right Guests

We leverage our network to match your property with verified golf fans, corporate sponsors, and players seeking premium St Andrews Open accommodation. We set the optimal nightly rate based on your exact distance to the Old Course, ensuring you get the best return.

Step 4: Hand Over the Keys

You pack your bags; we take over. We provide luxury hotel-quality linens, professional cleaning, and 24/7 guest support. If a guest locks themselves out at midnight, our local St Andrews team handles it—your phone never rings.
