Golf at the heart of St Andrews

The Old Course

This course really is the home of golf. Despite its world-renowned status, you can still enjoy a round where golf was enjoyed 600 years ago.

"I fell in love with it the first day I played it. There's just no other golf course that is even remotely close." Jack Nicklaus

The Castle Course

Set on rugged cliffs overlooking St Andrews, this course combines stunning views with a memorable golfing challenge. Designed by David Kidd, creator of Bandon Dunes on the West Coast of America, in its first year of opening the Castle Course was included within the prestigious Golf Digest Top 100 rankings. Highly popular for those searching for a new and exciting golfing challenge.

The New Course

This is the oldest ‘new’ course in the world. Classic undulating fairways combined with delightfully challenging greens make for one of the finest examples of Old Tom Morris’ work to be found anywhere.

The Jubilee Course

Created between the New Course and the sea, the Jubilee was intended for ladies and beginners, and made ready in just three months. The Jubilee Course has developed from a basic 12-hole layout into what is considered by many to be the toughest test of golf in St Andrews.

The Eden Course

By the year 1913, the pressure for play on the Old, New and Jubilee courses was such that a fourth course was required. Harry S Colt, whose other designs included Hoylake, Pine Valley, Sunningdale and Wentworth, was commissioned to design the course. His layout challenged golfers with severe bunkering, undulating greens and many carries off the tee to reach the fairways.

The Strathtyrum Course

This course became the first new 18 hole layout to come into play at St Andrews for almost 80 years. On 1 July 1993 the course was opened; Tornado jet fighters flew over the first tee as local farmer, John Steven, who had won a competition in a local newspaper, struck the first drive. Complementing the tougher championship layouts, the Strathtyrum Course is shorter, with only 15 bunkers facing the golfer.

The Balgove

Originally opened in 1972, then reopened following a remodelling in 1993, this course is designed to welcome beginners. The nine hole course offers a scaled-down version of the challenges on the full length courses. Golfers will be given a feel for what they will find on other courses as they develop their game. Guests can play the nine holes twice, for the same green fee.
