About this trip

Get ready for the ultimate golf adventure in Scotland—a journey filled with legendary courses, breathtaking landscapes, and a touch of whisky-infused magic!

Your 9-night golf odyssey begins at Craigielaw, situated along Scotland’s famed Golf Coast. Here, you’ll find 22 stunning courses, including many of the most revered championship links and hidden gems in the world.


Then, we head north for a proper Highland Fling to Brora, where Scotland’s raw beauty comes to life. Spend two nights at Brora Apartments, overlooking the rolling fairways of Brora Golf Club. Wake up to the sight of sheep wandering freely across the course before teeing off on Brora’s spectacular links. Next, brace yourself for the crown jewel of the trip—Royal Dornoch, ranked the third-best golf course in the world by Golf Digest. Discover why golf lovers from across the globe make the pilgrimage here!


After soaking up the Highlands, we journey south, stopping for a whisky tasting at the famous Tomatin Distillery to experience the true flavours of Scotland. Then, it’s off to Meldrum House, Scotland’s newly crowned best golf hotel, where luxury meets tradition. Expect world-class Scottish hospitality, a breathtaking golf course, and the sight of Highland cows grazing nearby


During our stay, we'll travel to the rugged North East coastline to play Cruden Bay, known for its awe-inspiring beauty—a course you must see to believe!


Of course, no trip to Scotland is complete without a pilgrimage to St Andrews—the Home of Golf. From Meldrum House, we make our way to this legendary town for two nights at the luxurious No. 1 Apartments, nestled in the heart of St Andrews’ Old Town—just steps away from history. Here, you'll tackle The Castle Course, a modern masterpiece with clifftop views that will take your breath away. To cap off the trip, we step back in time at Kingarrock, where you'll play 9 holes using hickory clubs, just as golf’s pioneers did.


This isn’t just a golf trip—its a once-in-a-lifetime adventure where you follow in the footsteps of the legends who walked these very fairways.  Expect a fun experience filled with spectacular courses, rich history, and memories that will last forever. Ready to tee off?

WELCOME TO SCOTLAND

Arrive early in Edinburgh, Scotland where we are collected by our Tour bus and taken to Scotlands Golf Coast.  Your Scottish adventure begins now!



Day 1 - AM - Craigielaw

Day 1 - AM - Craigielaw image

Check in to Craigielaw Lodges

Inspired by the great links courses of Britain, particularly those on land that are less dominated by dunes, Craigielaw is equal to many of the finest examples of such courses, some of which are conveniently located nearby in the East Lothian area.

Designed by Donald Steel & Co., the course opened in 2001, and in this short period has been host to many national events, including the 2006 Scottish Amateur Strokeplay Championship, and was a qualifying course for the 2007 British Seniors Open at Muirfield.

With challenging greens, cavernous bunkers, and spectacular views over the Firth of Forth, Gullane Hill, and out towards Edinburgh and Fife, Craigielaw Golf Club is an experience not to be missed.

Day 1 - PM Kilspindie

Day 1 - PM Kilspindie  image

Optional Round - Are you ready for Links Golf ?

 

Kilspindie Golf Club is a charming links golf course located on Scotland’s Golf Coast, close to the elite courses of Muirfield, Gullane, and Renaissance Club. From its very beginnings, Kilspindie built a reputation as a warm and welcoming Club. To this day, a warm welcome is extended to all golfers.

The course is also very popular with the growing society of Hickory Golfers and is a host course for the Scottish Hickory Golf Tour.  Few changes have been made to Kilspindie links in over a century, so golfers – irrespective of their standard of play – can continue to enjoy the same challenges as have so many in the past. The course is a magnet for hickory-shafted enthusiasts, and the Club can even arrange to hire you a set should you care to try it.

Kilspindie is a Hidden Gem that is simply a joy to play.  Although the course is just 5500 yards from the Medal Tees, this Hidden Gem is likely to be one of your favourite golf experiences in Scotland.   You must be accurate and avoid its well-placed bunkers and perfect green complexes whilst enjoying some spectacular views of the Firth of Forth and the coast. There’s also the opportunity to experience a variety of birds, plants, and Marine Mammals, such as Seals, which are courtesy of the nearby nature reserve, a breeding ground and resting place for many birds and wildlife.

Day 2 - The Glen

Day 2 - The Glen image

Get ready to experience a stunning Hidden Gem

Its time to play one of Scotland’s very best hidden gems. The Glen Golf Course, which is also known as North Berwick’s East Links, is sometimes overlooked by golfers as a result of the world-class golf courses that surround it.


The Glen is set on a clifftop high above the town. You can expect a visually stunning golf experience with wonderful elevated views of North Berwick, the Bass Rock, the historic Tantallon Castle, and the beach, which runs adjacent to a number of back 9 holes. On a clear day, you can see over the Firth of Forth to Fife to the new Dunbarnie Links.


Expect numerous good golf holes and some of the best green complexes (3rd hole) in the area. Sea Hole, the spectacular 13th, is set on the edge of the cliff where the wind howls. This hole is fun to play and is one of the most photographed par 3s in Scotland.


Day 3-Craigielaw Links

Day 3-Craigielaw Links image

Its time to play the course you've been looking at for 2 days!

Day 5 -Royal Dornoch image

ROYAL DORNOCH -TEE TIMES FROM 12:50

After breakfast, we take the 30-minute drive to Royal Dornoch which could likely be one of the greatest courses you play in your lifetime.  We return back to Brora after the golf. Dornoch has 2 courses The Struie or The Championship Course.  You have the choice of playing either course.  If you want to play the Struie your Tour would reduce to $3850.  I anticipate that most of the group will want to play the Championship course so have included that in the current pricing.


Royal Dornoch is a Championship Course that was Ranked #1 in the World, Golfscape 2020  https://golfscape.com/blog/top-100-golf-courses-in-the-world-2020/ 

Ranked #3 in the World, Golf Digest 2022 https://www.golfdigest.com/story/worlds-100-greatest-golf-courses

Day 5 Meldrum House image

Travel to Meldrum House via Glen Garioch Distillery

Today we travel from Brora to Meldrum House our Home for 2 Nights.  We stop at Glen Garioch distillery en route for a Whisky tasting. 


Meldrum House is an incredible property. There is an amazing video on the website that shows you the property in an amazing light and will give you some perspective on what to expect.  Scottish Hospitality doesn't get much better than Meldrum!!

Day 6

Day 6 image

Cruden Bay the course that keeps on giving!

 \Today, we drive 30 minutes to Scotland's North East Coast to experience the stunning Cruden Bay Links.


Cruden Bay is a thrilling and visually stunning golf course on Scotland’s east coast, just 23 miles north of Aberdeen. Even in Scotland, the Home of Golf,  it’s rare to find a course with such incredible, elevated sea views.  Expect to experience the seclusion created by numerous towering sandhills,  some three stories high,  enabling that wonderful feeling of intimacy.


Golfers will enjoy the surprise of not knowing what comes next and the highlights that lie in store ahead.  This is part of Cruden Bay's charm.  There are a few quirks, such as blind shots and back-to-back par 3s, but your focus will be occupied by navigating some of Scotland's most fearsome sand dunes. This course keeps giving, so you should expect to discover some unexpected features and enjoy some great surprises during your round.

So, if you love the idea of playing a wild-looking, rugged course with huge sand dunes, rolling fairways, and incredible elevation changes, this would be a superb choice. The golfing test here has remained consistent for almost 100 years.

Day 7 - PM Kingarrock

Day 7 - PM Kingarrock  image

learn how golf began

After breakfast, we drive towards St Andrews, then stop at Kingarrock Golf Course to have fun while you can experience how golf began.  Expect to play nine holes of golf with original hand-forged golf clubs and a feather-simulated ball. The Kingarrock Golf Course will transport you back almost 100 years to an era when golf was a game of skill, strategy, and technique rather than one driven by innovation and technology. We head back to St Andrews after the event for our final night in Scotland.
