The place
St Andrews is undoubtedly the golf capital of the world, and it is a living testimony of the strong bond between golf and Scotland. It started as an ancestral hobby practiced in the useless lands by the sea, and thereafter became popular amongst locals. Today golf is part of the pride and soul of the town; nowhere on earth will you experience what happens at St Andrews. Golfers stroll in its streets with clubs as cars would do in any major capital city. The most famous course in the world is here, around the corner for locals, mesmerizing golfers from all over the world.

Golf
The courses where golf was born and excellent modern jewels.
St Andrews Links - Old Course
- Golf was born here. It is the oldest and most traditional field in the world, home of the R&A and every 5 years it hosts “The Open”. Located in the heart of the town, it is a public place where residents and visitors constantly walk, and stop to take photos on the famous "swilcan bridge" of the 18th.
- Its layout is characterized by a "natural" ground movement that is unique and impossible to imitate and a perfect floor from tee to green. Very playable for all levels of golfer, its design (which has many huge double greens) has been studied, and has inspired the best designers in history.
The Carnoustie Championship Golf Links
- Considered the most difficult stop at The Open Rota, it is an extreme challenge from 1 to 18, and from tee to green. It is a route that demands concentration and a lot of patience, because disaster is always lurking (just remember Van de Velde in 1999).
- It is a typical Scottish links despite the fact that the sea is not visible (it is 500m away), and it has the most difficult finish (16-17-18) in the British Isles. Its 18th hole, crossed by the meandering Barry Burn, with a headwind, has driven the best pros in history crazy.
St Andrews Links - New Course
- O New Course, conhecido como o “novo campo mais antigo do mundo”, foi inaugurado em 1895 e desenhado pelo herói Old Tom Morris. O seu traçado é extraordinário, mais difícil do que o seu irmão “Old” e o seu percurso -de acordo com a antiga tradição- afasta-se nos primeiros 9 buracos, para depois proceder ao “regresso a casa”.
Dumbarnie Golf Links
- Recently opened, Dumbarnie Links was envisioned as a world class course on a genuine link site just minutes from St Andrews.
- Its 345-acre site is special for its dual elevations that allowed for a series of elevated tees to be located, and another set of tees and greens located by the sea. Another outstanding feature is that fourteen of its holes have views of the Bay and the Firth of Forth.
Other recommended golf courses

Other things to do
Welcome to the land of Harry Potter: the beautiful and picturesque St Andrews is a wonderful town to explore. The Home of Golf is also home to collection of historic sights to see, excellent shopping, fine dining and of course famous pubs. Visit its cemetery, walk through its narrow stone streets and visit its famous university (one of the oldest in the world). In addition, you may want to take a day trip to visit Crail, the adjoining fishing village that offers very good cuisine.
Planning
Where to stay
Staying in the village is the best way to live the full St Andrews experience. Choose from mansions or houses on the outskirts, hotels on the Old Course (like The Old Course Hotel and The Macdonald Rusacks Hote), hotels a few miles away like the Farimont St Andrews, or consider any of the dozen bed & breakfasts in town.
