Our 42nd St Andrews Golf Week proved to be another resounding success, as we welcomed a fantastic mix of new and returning guests to The Home of Golf. With players travelling from across the globe, the week once again delivered a memorable blend of world-class golf, great company, and unforgettable experiences in St Andrews.
A Guaranteed Old Course Experience
One of the defining features of our St Andrews Golf Week is the guaranteed Old Course tee time – a rare and highly sought-after opportunity for golfers visiting Scotland. For many of our guests, walking the iconic fairways of the Old Course at St Andrews remains a true bucket-list moment and a highlight of the entire week.
A World-Class Line-Up of Courses
Throughout the week, guests enjoyed an exceptional rotation of some of Scotland’s finest courses, all presented in fantastic condition and enhanced by beautiful weather from start to finish:
- Dumbarnie Links
- Castle Course at St Andrews
- Old Course at St Andrews
- Jubilee Course at St Andrews
- Kingsbarns Golf Links
This combination offers the perfect balance of traditional links golf and modern design, ensuring a varied and rewarding challenge for players of all abilities.
A Welcoming Atmosphere for All Golfers
One of the standout aspects of the week was the diversity of golfers and ages taking part. From seasoned players to those experiencing links golf for the first time, the event created a friendly and inclusive environment where everyone could enjoy the game and connect with fellow golfers.
With a variety of winners throughout the week, the competition remained exciting and open, adding to the overall enjoyment.
The Perfect Balance of Group Golf and Flexibility
One of the key strengths of St Andrews Golf Week is the balance it offers between organised group activities and personal flexibility. Guests can enjoy the camaraderie of the wider group during competitions and social events, while still having the freedom to spend time with their own friends, explore St Andrews, or relax at their own pace. This blend ensures the week feels both social and personal, making it an ideal experience for all types of golfers.
Memorable Social Events and Dining
The week began in style with a welcome reception at the Swilcan Loft in the Old Course Hotel, offering stunning views over the Old Course and coastline – setting the tone for the days ahead.
Off the course, guests enjoyed a carefully curated social programme, including:
- An evening of live music at the Jigger Inn.
- A spectacular prize-giving dinner at the St Andrews Links Clubhouse, held on a beautiful closing evening.
- Dining at some of the region’s finest restaurants, including the Michelin-starred The Peat Inn and local favourite Little Italy.
- A customised sightseeing and activities programme designed for non-golfers.
These experiences ensured the week was about much more than golf – it was a true celebration of Scottish hospitality, culture, and community.
Looking Ahead to Future Golf Weeks
Following such a successful event, we’re already looking forward to welcoming guests back to St Andrews later this year for our October Golf Week, as well as our next April Golf Week in 2027.
With guaranteed tee times on the Old Course, world-class venues, and a welcoming atmosphere, our St Andrews Golf Week continues to offer one of the most complete and memorable golf travel experiences in Scotland.
