Planning consent has been granted to develop a hotel and golf resort on the 500 acre Kersewell Estate on the outskirts of Edinburgh, with owners currently looking for hotel operators to work with.

The development is planned to include a 240 bedroom resort hotel as well as conference venues and a championship golf course, which is being designed in conjunction with Scottish professional golfer Sandy Lyle. There is also a plan to develop 250 chalet-style villas on the site.

The owners are currently working with the Debutesq Group to seek a hotel operator to work with, but have not ruled out selling the site altogether.

Alexandra Hayward of Debutesq Group said:  “Scotland is crying out for a resort hotel with conference and leisure facilities on a grand scale and this development will help the country compete better internationally.”

The development will be close to the country’s capital city and 30 minutes’ drive from Edinburgh Airport.
