Our Story

Creating memorable golf tours since 1985

The idea for Links Golf St Andrews came from a requirement to simply have a plan for the future & to make a living at the time; by providing local assistance to golfers visiting St Andrews. It wasn’t particularly glamorous then, in 1985 it was posters in hotel lobbies with contact information for Links Golf St Andrews, a local golf travel service.

Growth came with the introduction of mobile phones, the internet and emails, alongside global interest in St Andrews – The Home of Golf. We kept doing what we were doing, doing it well.

There were remarkable highs and lows. The great Open Champions at St Andrews, such as Seve Ballesteros and Tiger Woods, the establishment of new venues, and acquiring our office located at a special site just a matter of yards from the 18th green of the St Andrews Old Course. The challenges brought by 9/11, the financial crash of 2007/8 and worse yet for our industry, the covid-19 pandemic seemed irrecoverable at times.  However, all obstacles have been dodged and hurdles overcome.

Today we are blessed with a wealth of experience, an incredible Team of people and the most amazing clients. Our enduring success is attributed to these clients, who so loyally return time and time again, whilst enthusiastically referring us to their family, friends and colleagues. 

Our goal is to match each client with their perfect itinerary, along with a level of care so personal it cannot be recreated. To achieve this goal, we try to create a unique working environment where ideas about golf travel can flourish. You can be assured of an incredible level of detail and attention from our professionals, with fun at the heart of everything we do.

Tain Golf Club

Situated to the south of Royal Dornoch, Tain is a heathland/links course with spectacular views. Designed originally by Old Tom Morris as a fifteen-hole course in 1890, it was extended to eighteen holes in 1894; eleven Morris holes are still in play today. This is an easy walking course with the river meandering through three of the holes. Always presented in beautiful condition, Tain is a good test of golf, with clever bunkering and natural water hazards. Tain is located 35 miles north of Inverness.
