Scotland is known as the home of golf, and for good reason too! With over 550 golf courses, there’s not only a lot to choose from, but the variety of cost, styles and experiences make every course truly unique. We’re on a mission to share all the courses Scotland has to offer, especially the hidden gems and unsung heroes that often fall under the radar. Here, you can find our thoughts on all the courses we’ve ticked off so far. As always, let us know your thoughts and where we should explore next!
