Fly into Edinburgh Airport and transfer to St Andrew’s. Check into the Old Course Hotel and get ready to play some golf.
The oldest ‘new’ course in the world, the second course at the Home of Golf was built by the Keeper of the Green Tom Morris in 1895 and it was imaginatively named to differentiate from its famous neighbour. Boasting undulating fairways and challenging greens, the New Course is a classic test of links golf.
The oldest and most iconic golf course in the world. The home of golf.
The Swilken Bridge and Hell Bunker are recognised across the globe, yet the greatest feature of the Old Course is that despite its grand status it remains a public golf course, open to all.
Designed in 1850 by Alan Robertson with minor changes by Mackenzie and Ebert in 2017, Carnoustie is a world-renowned links golf course. A host to The Open on seven occasions, Carnoustie is all set to host the 2018 Championship.
A very challenging links course, who can forget Jean Van de Velde’s Open demise on the 18th hole in the Barry Burn!
Not the most scenic of courses (you rarely get glimpses of the sea), it nevertheless tests every shot in the bag on more than one occasion.
Muirfield is the home of The Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers (HCEG) – the world’s oldest golf club (being formed in 1744). It was the first course designed with concentric rings of nine holes (the outward nine running clockwise around the edge of the course and the inward nine running anti-clockwise inside the outward nine). This layout ensures the wind hits you from all directions! Host to 15 Opens and most recently won in 2013 by Phil Mickleson. It has also played host to the 1973 Ryder Cup won by The USA.
The West Links in North Berwick is a one off. With nine holes out and nine holes back in and with a short par 4 18th hole that finishes in the town, it has a similar layout to the Old Course. It’s also the 3rd oldest course in the world still playing over its original fairways. The views out over the Firth of Forth are magnificent and when you come to the par 3 15th hole (Redan) you will be playing the most copied hole in golf. No wonder it is one of the most loved (and popular) golf courses in Scotland.
Transfer to Edinburgh Airport for departure.
Bordering the renowned 17th Road Hole of the Old Course, the Old Course Hotel overlooks the famous links course, the West Sands beach and the beautiful Scottish coastline. This prestigious AA Five Star-awarded hotel has 144 rooms including 35 suites and is recognised as one of Europe’s leading resorts. The Old Course Hotel features a combination of classically elegant and contemporary interiors, and French designer Jacques Garcia designed many of the hotel’s suites. Located just a short stroll from the town centre of St Andrews, it’s a great vacation spot for golfers and non-golfers alike.
Greywalls Hotel is uniquely situated overlooking the Muirfield championship golf course with stunning views over East Lothian and the Firth of Forth. Bordering the world famous greens of the 9th & 18th holes, it has earned itself a reputation as ‘a golfers’ paradise’! Rooms are traditionally appointed and its Albert Roux restaurant provides fine dining at its finest.
Spread across 4 rooms, including a Whisky room and Sunroom, Chez Roux can offer settings to suit the occasion, season or time-of day. The service matches that of the hotel; welcoming yet refined, attentive yet unobtrusive.
Discover the taste of St Andrews at the Road Hole Restaurant. The 3 AA awarded restaurant offers sprawling views of the Old Course and the North Sea whilst you dine. Whether you’re ordering from the grill or sampling the seafood selection, their Scottish food is locally sourced, with the chefs regularly picking up fresh seafood.
