Andy's new hotel in Scotland has opened.

Andy will visit his new hotel in late April when he visits Scotland to receive an honorary doctorate from Stirling University and the freedom of the city of Stirling. He might play a few sets on his tennis court. He had to have special permission from Wimbledon to use their colours. How could they refuse?

The hotel is close to Gleneagles. Andy's promised his fellow pros a discount if they visit.

Wanting, wanting, wanting to go there…..It looks great! I also like that the restaurant is not too pricey for locals. It's really great that he took his money and put it back into his community, and saved a local treasure.

I was there about 4 years ago. It's a stunning building but it was in need of refurbishment. I love that the rooms are named after famous Scots both past and present. Andy hasn't seen it yet. I think he'll be impressed.

is murray going to become a drug addled crazy in his new building like scarface did ?, (although scarface lived in a mansion and murray does not live in his new hotel. but anyway)

he can stagger through his own restaurant out of his skull on booze and "yayo" whilst saying "look out, the bad guy is coming through..better get out of his way, take a good look at the bad guy"

The rooms are named after famous scots past and present? It looks bigger than that from the outside. ;)
