The hotel borders the Road Hole of the Old Course, and has 175 rooms, including 35 suites.[2]

It was built in 1968,[2] on the site of the old railway station,[3] by British Transport Hotels Ltd (which was a subsidiary of British Railways). In 2004, Herb Kohler bought the hotel and now it is operated by Destination Kohler, a subsidiary of the American Kohler Company. The former stationmaster's house still stands and is called the Jigger Inn, which forms part of the hotel complex.[3] In 2020, the hotel completed an expansion, which included 31 additional rooms and the Swilcan Loft restaurant.[4]
