Day 1:

Arrive into Scotland and be met by your Golf Scotland representative who will assist with your luggage and take you to the car rental desk at the airport to collect your self drive vehicle. Travel to the Carnoustie Golf Hotel & Spa, Carnoustie where you will be based for the first 4 nights of your stay.

Day 2:

Today after a full Scottish Breakfast in your hotel, Golf has been included at Carnoustie Buddon Course.  The newest of the three courses at Carnoustie, opened in 1979, was originally designed by Peter Alliss and the late Dave Thomas. Since then many changes have taken place including the most recent $1m investment in two new holes bringing the course up to a very testing par 68.

Gailes has hosted major championship tournaments through the years and was designed by legendary golf architect Willie Park Jnr of Musselburgh.
