Founded in 1780, Cullen Golf Club sits on a very unique plot of land, as it plays its way up and down the escarpment that overlooks the bay, and in and out of the Cullen quartzite formation, with those red-stone outcrops provide the backdrop for your round. First things first with Cullen; this is not a championship golf course, it's not got a sub-air system, and there will be holes where 'Lady Luck' needs to be on your side, but we believe that's the great thing about Cullen. Blind shots and severe slopes make it a thrilling experience, even [...]

There is far too much to write about the history of Carnousite, so instead we'll simply ask you to check the film out which is filled with a lot of the significant events from its history. We all went into Carnoustie having not played it before. A course that is synonymous with difficulty, and the site of some of the most memorable Open Championships over time. We went in with an open mind, not expecting anything like what we experienced. The course is absolutely fantastic, and the challenge that's in front of you is the product of several [...]

Rye Golf Club: England's Golden Age Wonders There are very few golf clubs in England that have a more significant story to share than Rye. Things got off to a hot start straight away, with Harry Colt elected as the founding captain of the club, and the following year he made his career debut as a golf architect by establishing the initial routing (in fact, Colt was really the first person to create the modern day profession of 'course architect' as we know it today). It's early years, war time history and through to the various special relationships [...]

Story of a Golf Club: Kilspindie Golf Club Kilspindie Golf Club, often overlooked by visitors drawn to its bigger, and more famous neighbours, sits nestled quietly down a single track road, in the small village of Aberlady, in East Lothian, and maybe… just maybe, that’s a good thing. Kilspindie is the quintessential Scottish golf club, and the lucky visitors who are curious enough to venture off the well-trodden East Lothian path, will be rewarded with what is hidden within.  Founded in 1867, The Luffness Golf Club was, at the time, the 35th registered golf club in the world.

Story of a Golf Club: Gullane Golf Club Our Scotland Tour series continues in East Lothian with a golf club that sits front and centre of the town of Gullane; Gullane Golf Club. With records showing the game has been played on the links since the 1650, the course mysteriously cites no name accredited with its design meaning we can only assume Mother Nature is responsible for the fine routing we get to enjoy today.   Gullane enjoys three golf courses, all maintained to the same exacting standards that start and end right in the town itself. In [...]
