Golf first – play some serious courses, play well, enjoy great competition, eat some fine food, but keep golf at the core of your agenda.
Now the other part – Edinburgh is a must-see cosmopolitan city where the past and present collide, from a prehistoric extinct volcano known as Arthur’s Seat to outstanding Michelin-starred dining options. There is a vibrant bar and nightlife scene, and everything in between; we will of course get you into all the right places.

The West Links at North Berwick GC is a tremendously enjoyable golf course located on The Firth of Forth with stunning views across to Craigleith Island and Bass Rock which is a huge granite outcrop that is home to 10% of the world’s population of Atlantic Gannets.
Formed in 1832 it is the 13th oldest golf club in the world and the 3rd oldest course still playing over its original fairways. The other two being Musselburgh Old and St Andrew ‘s Old.
The architect is unknown but it was originally 6 holes, extended to 18 in 1877.
The 15th “Redan” (a military term meaning guarding parapet) is one of the world’s most famous holes measuring 190 yds.
A unique and magical links course ranked in 16th in the UK and 49th in the World.

Morning Fourballs – Lunch – Afternoon Foursomes (alternate shot).
Steeped in history and tradition, 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 Mickelson. It has also played host to the 1973 Ryder Cup won by the USA.

There are 3 fantastic golf courses as part of Gullane GC. Gullane No.1 is voted one of the top 100 golf courses in the world and one of the top 20 courses in Scotland. Home to the 2015 Scottish Open, won by Rickie Fowler, Gullane No.1 requires a variety of uphill and downhill shot-making. Located near Muirfield, Gullane No. 1 is definitely a golf experience not to miss.
