Insiders tips on golf in Scotland
Perhaps the greatest advice one can offer to any golfer intending
to visit Scotland and who absolutely must play the more famous courses,
is to consider arranging their schedule with a specialist golf holiday
agent or to combine their booking reservations with specific hotels
and guesthouses. Quite simply some of these enterprises have quotas
of guaranteed tee times. For example, The Old Course Experience
at oldcourse-experience.com can
help secure tee-times at St Andrews. Many of the famous golf clubs
overshadow many other very fine golf
clubs within their local area. Green fees can be substantially cheaper
though the quality of golf is similar. Consider courses such as Boat
of Garten, Cruden Bay, Durness and Royal Dornoch, and others.
Scotland is awash with gems to be discovered.
Regional tourist authorities sometimes sell golf passes or have other promotions which allow you to play several courses at considerable discounts. It is even possible to buy a weekly golf passport for the price of a single round on some of the famous golf clubs.
Finally Scotland is a historic land with much to offer the tourist besides golf.
Nature lovers will enjoy the wide open spaces, the great views and the beautiful
beaches and countryside. There are many distilleries which conduct public
tours and offer samples. Towns and cities such as Edinburgh have much to
offer as well. The Scots themselves are a warm and gregarious people without
pretension and a great ability to laugh at themselves. Like the Irish, they
know how to combine the business of life with the joy of life.
