golf in perthshire, scotland

With over 40 lovely golf courses in Perthshire offering public access, there is a style and standard of course to suit everyone.

Parkland or Heath, simple 9 hole to inspiring 18, beginner's level or championship, lady or gentleman, you'll find it in Perthshire, and notably around Pitlochry, which offers a choice of ten superb courses within easy reach to test even the most ardent golfer, including a very fine local course, a highland gem at Taymouth Castle, and a stunning international class test at Rosemount Blairgowrie.

And clear air, and excellent long light from spring to autumn allows two invigorating and stimulating rounds per day comfortably.

And then of course there's Gleneagles. The Kings and Queens courses at Gleneagles probably represent the pinnacle of achievement for James Braid the golf course architect. Both are quite superb heathland courses set in some of the most spectacular scenery in Scotland. The Kings course has hosted many important events since its official opening in 1919 including a match between British and American professionals which was the forerunner of the Ryder Cup.
