Golf near Charonne Ruth Glass

St Andrews Old Course, the oldest and most famous course in the world, needs little introduction. It is regarded as the Home of Golf and hosts The Open every five years. The Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, a major professional tournament, plays every October at St Andrews. VisitScotland tell us, that faced with a blind opening tee shot, members of the Golf House Club at Elie came up with an ingenious way to make sure the path is clear before teeing off... they erected a recovered periscope from a WWI submarine!

'It's quirky and it's the most enjoyable course I know. If I had my way, I'd build Elies all over the world.'

Peter Thomson, winner of five Open Championships, on Golf House Club, Elie

Another quirky one, Kingarrock at Hill of Tarvit, transports us back to the 19th Century. All players are provided with hickory clubs, an old golf bag, together with balls and tees that represent how the game used to be played!
