St Andrews to Host the 2027 Open – Time to Plan Your Scotland Golf Tour!

The Home of Golf is calling! St Andrews has been confirmed as the host of the 2027 Open Championship, and there’s no better excuse to start planning a dream golf tour in Scotland. Whether you’re a serious golfer or just fancy soaking up the atmosphere with a dram of whisky in hand, this is an event you won’t want to miss.

Golf at St Andrews – But Don’t Stop There!

Playing the Old Course is a bucket-list experience, but why stop there? Scotland is packed with world-class courses that offer just as much history, challenge, and breathtaking scenery. Why not mix it up with rounds at:

🏌️ Muirfield – A true classic, home to The Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers and host to countless Open Championships.
🏌️ Carnoustie – One of the toughest tests in golf, known for its brutal closing stretch.
🏌️ Royal Dornoch – A stunning links course up in the Highlands, ranked among the best in the world.
🏌️ Trump International – Love him or loathe him, this course near Aberdeen is spectacular, with towering dunes and dramatic views.

Golf and Whisky – The Perfect Pairing

You can’t come to Scotland for golf without sampling the local whisky. The Speyside region is home to some of the world’s most famous distilleries, including Glenfiddich, Macallan, and Balvenie. A whisky tour is the perfect way to unwind after a day on the fairways—just don’t overdo the tasting if you’re playing early the next morning!

Something for the Non-Golfers

Not a golfer? No problem. Scotland is just as magical for those who prefer sightseeing to swinging a club. While the golfers are battling bunkers, non-golfers can:

🏔️ Take a scenic road trip through the Highlands, visiting places like Glencoe and Loch Ness.
🏰 Explore historic castles like Dunrobin, Balmoral, or Eilean Donan.
🏙️ Enjoy the vibrant cities of Edinburgh and Inverness, packed with culture, shopping, and cosy pubs.
