St Andrews, the Home of Golf, welcomed a great addition to its rota of courses in 2008 when the Castle Course was opened for play. Offering spectacular views over St Andrews Bay and the town itself, the Castle course is set on a cliff and has proved popular with golfers looking for a new and exciting test of golf in St Andrews.
Very few links courses in the world is more strikingly situated than the Castle.
Designed by David Kidd, creator of Bandon Dunes, The Castle Course won several numerous awards since 2008 and was included within the prestigious Golf Digest Top 100 rankings.
The Castle Course’s setting is one of a kind, and for many, the views of the ancient town of St Andrews will be worth the green fees. The par-3 17th hole, which demands a tee shot over seaside cliffs to the green, uses the town backdrop as well.
The finishing holes on the Castle Course is nothing short of spectacular.
