Scotland is recognised worldwide as the home of golf, and each year many
visitors come for golfing holidays to play on some of Scotland's 540 golf courses.
Scotland boasts many world famous Open Championship Golf Courses, including
Carnoustie, The Old Course St. Andrews, Royal Troon, Turnberry, Muirfield, and
Gleneagles. Glasgow is a perfect base to combine a golf holiday with other vacation
activities, including art galleries and museums, restaurants and nightlife.
Golf in Glasgow has a long pedigree, and historically was played on Glasgow Green, near the City Centre. Indeed, the Glasgow Golf Club was based there for much of the 18th Century. There are many golf courses within easy reach from the city, including Stirling and Bishopbriggs. The relatively short distances to travel around Scotland's golf courses, combined with Glasgow's strong public transport links makes staying in Glasgow hotels a popular option for visitors on golf vacations.
Spacious and cozy large beds. Breakfast was fantastic, better than I've had at 5 star hotels. Staff very helpful & friendly. There is also free use of computer and coffee/tea facilities at reception, as well as a library of information leaflets about area.
