Scotland
Where it all begins…
Immerse yourself in the history of St Andrews, the “Auld Grey Toon” or take on the windswept links along the western Ayrshire Coast. Travel to the majestic highlands in the north, or the heart of Scotland – Edinburgh, one of Europe’s great cities. The sheer number of great golf courses and the diversity of landscapes is one of the reasons why traveling golfers return time and again.
TGC suggests you begin planning your trip 12-18 months before you want to travel for best options on lodging availability and tee times. Many top courses full-up 9-12 months in advance.
