How to Find the Best Golf Holidays in Scotland

 Scotland, famous for being the home of golf, has some of the best golfing holidays available. Set against stunning Scottish scenery in the Highlands and other beautiful locations, the courses are often the challenging links golf that make for the exciting sport we see at the British Open. Here's how to find the best of them.

1. Step1
   Decide which part of Scotland you would like to visit. A golfing holiday in Aberdeen has a far different feel to one in the Highlands.
   
2. Step2
   Have a look at a list of golf courses in Scotland. We've all heard of St. Andrews, but there are literally hundreds of courses. Which one would you like to visit on a holiday?
   
3. Step3
   Research to see if the course you are interested in provides a golfing holiday package. You can book accommodation and golf sessions separately, but this can be expensive.
   
4. Step4
   Take a look at tour agencies. Golfing holidays are very popular, particularly holidays in Scotland. Usually they include hotel accommodation, a game of golf everyday and food.
   
5. Step5
   Go on a golf tour. St. Andrews, Royal Troon and Muirfield are all historic courses, but such choices make decisions about where to go very difficult. A golfing tour holiday transcends all that, encompassing three or more courses with transport provided.
   
6. Step6
   Watch golf. Instead of playing you can catch the British Open. A holiday to the championship will include accommodation and meals.
   
7. Step7
   Book well in advance. Scotland is the home of golf and as a result very popular with golfers, so you will need to book early to ensure you get what you want.
