Breaks, Offers and Packages - the perfect vacation!
"Golf is an exercise
which is much used by a gentleman in Scotland......A man would live 10
years the longer for using this exercise once or twice a week."
Dr. Benjamin Rush (1745 - 1813)
In 1457 playing golf was
outlawed in Scotland but by the end of the 15th century it had the royal
seal of approval when King James IV of Scotland (1473 -1513)
became the world's first golfing monarch.
Some of the most famous
golf courses in the world are in Scotland: their names evoke the passion
and tradition of the game of golf. Gleneagles, The Old Course at St.
Andrews, Carnoustie, Royal Troon, Prestwick, to name but a few.....
Indulge your passion for
the game and enjoy a golfing break in this most beautiful region of
Britain.
