Golf Vacations - Scotland
Aberdeenshire
The Aberdeenshire coast is a great destination for a ready-made short Scottish golf holiday as it offers three superb links courses all within easy reach of each other. Cruden Bay is one of the most challenging yet rewarding courses around, while Royal Aberdeen uses the natural contours of the dunes to test golfers. The hidden gem of the three is the excellent seaside test at Murcar. For true peace and quiet The Udny Arms Hotel is ideally situated in a tranquil village but if you'd sooner be closer to the city centre and airport, then Aberdeen Marriott Hotel 4* offers the ideal base for an Aberdeenshire golf break.

Ayrshire
The south west coast of Scotland is a paradise for worshippers of high quality links golf. Ayrshire hosted the first Open Championship in 1860 and offers as fine a stretch of back to back seaside courses as you'll find anywhere. At the south of this stretch is the famed Open venue of Westin Turnberry 5*. One of the world's leading links golf resorts, it features first class accommodation and two outstanding golf courses; The Ailsa and The Kintyre. Other former and current Open hosts - Prestwick and Royal Troon - are located just up the coast as are a clutch of other superb courses. With stunning views and excellent accommodation near to all the golf, an Ayrshire golf break will live long in the memory.
