  • Read Book Glenapp Castle : a Scottish Intrigue
    GLENAPP CASTLE : A SCOTTISH INTRIGUE PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Rosenberg Tina Rosenberg | 252 pages | 12 Jan 2010 | iUniverse | 9781440197123 | English | Bloomington IN, United States Glenapp Castle : A Scottish Intrigue PDF Book Just outside the wee village of Ballantrae, Scotland, lies Glenapp Castle, an abandoned manor with a tragic and mysterious past. Spring and early Autumn are the best compromise between good weather and missing the summer crowds. Gallery Grid. For me this area did not look like the image I had in my mind of Scotland. Guests staying at the castle can enjoy a range of country sports from shooting, high pheasant and partridge shooting, deer stalking as well as salmon fishing on the River Stinchar, or trout fishing on a nearby loch. Mini House: The Enchanted Castle. Four- poster beds and fireplaces allow guests to unwind, whilst looking out onto the calming waters surrounding the Scottish Isles. Maybe I am a bit more critical because we were blown away by the Michelin starred meal we had at Glenapp 8 years ago. The panoramic sea-views across to Ailsa Craig, the Isle of Arran and, on a good day, the coast of Ireland makes waking up in these premier second-floor rooms an absolute pleasure. Beef, lamb, and pork are farmed only 17 miles from the castle. Surrounding the hotel are acres of well-manicured gardens, a small lake and woodlands. When Eva and Andrew Campbell buy the fire-ravaged castle and its thirty-acre estate on a whim with plans to create an exquisite hotel by the sea, they dismiss warnings of ghostly spirits inhabiting their new home.

Argyll covers the southwestern islands and western peninsulas of Scotland. While Ayrshire boundaries are well marked, Argyll is a bit more amorphous, encompassing a region that historically stretches into the Highlands. One of Ayrshire’s primary attractions is “Burns Country,” because the area was the poet Robert Burns’s birthplace as well as his predominant stomping grounds for most of his life. But Ayrshire also offers golfers some of the best links courses in the world. If you take the train from Glasgow to Ayr, the main town of Ayrshire, you can see one course after another in the sandy dunes along the shoreline. Argyll, which means the “coast of the Gaels,” encompasses islands such as Bute and Arran as well as the more remote Kintyre Peninsula. Kintyre is so sufficiently isolated that ex-Beatle Paul McCartney has long owned a ranch there where he and his family can retreat from prying eyes. It takes the better part of the day just to reach Kintyre, however, so I don’t dwellCOPYRIGHTED on its charms for too long in this MATERIAL chapter.

  • A World Class Golfing Experience Your Ideal Base for World Class Golf in Scotland
    A WORLD CLASS GOLFING EXPERIENCE YOUR IDEAL BASE FOR WORLD CLASS GOLF IN SCOTLAND Located on the Ayrshire coast, Glenapp Castle Hotel is at the heart of the highest concentration of world class golf courses anywhere on the planet. ICONIC LINKS COURSES The ‘Open Championship’ courses of Turnberry, Royal Troon and Prestwick are all within easy reach of the castle. You can sense the history of these iconic links courses as you walk in the footsteps of the great names that have done battle in the ultimate test of golfing ability. The 45 mile coastal strip of links land along the Ayrshire coast also offers many more very highly regarded, if less famous venues, such as Western Gailes (a qualifying course for the Open), Fullarton and Dundonald Links, considered one of the best new courses of recent years. Images courtesy of Turnberry, John McLachlan and Ayrshire Golf ROYAL TROON THE POSTAGE STAMP The shortest hole in championship golf, at just 123 yards, has been the undoing of many top professionals. Tiger Woods, world number one at the time, famously faltered here with a six during his second round in 1997. Demanding anything from a sand wedge to a five iron, depending on the wind the Postage Stamp is a real test for any golfer. GLENAPP CHAMPIONSHIP LINKS CHALLENGE Test yourself with the ultimate golfing challenge and relax in the five red star comfort and splendour of Glenapp Castle. • Choose two rounds of golf at any combination of Royal Troon, Prestwick, Turnberry, Western Gailes and Dundonald courses or your choice of other courses*.
