Ailsa Course
The Ailsa Course at Turnberry is regarded by many as the best links course in Scotland, and will make a welcome return to the Open Championship scene when it hosts the world's best in 2009.

Set along some of the country's most spectacular coastline, under the watchful gaze of the iconic lighthouse, Turnberry is a truly spectacular place for a golf break. The Ailsa has been well-known to the world since Jack Nicklaus and Tom Watson's legendary duel in 1977.

Looking out to sea and the imposing Ailsa Craig, Turnberry boasts some world-class holes. Perhaps the best of them all is the tenth; from a remote tee set atop a rocky cliff-top promontory, the drive is across the corner of the bay, and offers visitors a glimpse of the site of Bruce's Castle, home to Scotland's 14^th century King, Robert the Bruce. The narrow path and the tee shot itself are not for the faint-hearted, but are typical of Turnberry's dramatic setting.

Kintyre Course
Turnberry is fortunate enough to actually boast two quality links courses: like the Ailsa, the Kintyre (formerly called the Arran) was rescued from near extinction by architect Mackenzie Ross in the 1950s. At the Kintyre, fortunate visitors will experience fast, undulating greens, tight links turf, magnificent holes along the shoreline and glorious views of Kintyre, Arran and the lighthouse. The signature hole is undoubtedly the 8^th, where following an elevated tee shot, golfers face a dramatic blind approach to a green set in a gully flanked by rocks.

In addition, the Arran Course has been specifically designed to complement Colin Montgomerie's Links Golf Academy.

Everything went very much to plan - no problems. The weather was fantastic for the time of year and as you may know Turnberry is one of the best venues for a golf break. Thanks for the arrangements and keep me informed of any other offers, particularly for golf in Scotland. We also need to arrange our annual golf day on the 26th August for probably 12-16 people ideally a venue suitable for non-golfers, say an option for shooting and fishing? Any suggestions most welcomed.
Best regards,
Douglas

We had a fab time. The weather was perfect – very cold but sunny almost the whole time. Two showers for about 5 mins each (one was hail stones though and it hurt!!!) Fab hotel, fab golf courses – so he tells me. I was in the spa so couldn’t care less! Thank you for being such a great company to book through – I will definitely use you again (especially now I have a voucher to start me off). Thanks again,

What a weekend! Played some of my best golf around the Kintyre (5 over gross). Not so great the next day on the Ailsa (+2 net), but what a day. Not a breath of wind nor cloud in the sky. Will be with you again as usual when booking our next trip. Regards,
Rob Watson
