Practical info
Known as the “Old Course,” this historic venue claims to be where golf was played as early as the 15th century. Initially featuring 22 holes, it was in 1764 that the Society of St. Andrews Golfers, precursor to the Royal and Ancient Golf Club, standardized the game to 18 holes, setting a global benchmark. With 112 strategically placed bunkers, the course ensures a challenging experience that keeps golfers on their toes throughout their round.
Today, the Old Course remains a revered pilgrimage site for golf enthusiasts worldwide, blending centuries of tradition with a challenging layout that continues to inspire players of all levels. Its historical significance and iconic bunkering make it a must-visit destination for those seeking to play where golf’s modern rules were forged.

Thoroughly recommend A Golfing Experience. I have booked several golfing holidays for between 4 and 16 people. I have never experienced any problems and would go back to them again and again.
