Recognised the world over as the Home of Golf, St Andrews Links has borne witness to over 600 years of golfing history. That the game evolved and developed into its final form here has never been in question. Golf has been played on the famous Links since as early as the 1400s, and it was here in 1764, when the 22 hole Old Course was reduced, that today's 18-hole round was established, becoming the standard for golf courses the world over. One golf course has now become seven, and many of golf's most dramatic moments have occurred here. The Links has played host to the game's greats as well as those enthusiastic amateurs for whom the chance to play St Andrews' hallowed turf is a dream come true. As well as seven courses, the Links also manages four shops, three clubhouses and a Golf Academy - all open for the public to enjoy.
If your into golf this was a trip of a life time. Ive had the opportunity to play at great courses around the country. I play Torrey Pines in San Diego on a regular basis. St.Andrews by far has been the best golf and overall trip I've ever done. Play all the courses at St.Andrews, the staff the restraints the accommodations where all top notch and very reasonable. plan a year in advance and you will not be disappointed.

A traditional Scottish links golf course with sea views over 1.5 miles of coastline ranked in the top 60 courses worldwide and top 20 in Europe.
Playing our 5th and 6th rounds at Kingsbairns the vistas, the wide array of links like and parkland holes is as good as ever. It’s pricey and while still wonderful Crail, Castle, Torrance offer similar vistas and challenge at a fraction of the price. Our conclusion (our group has played over a 100 rounds in Kingdom of Fife over seven years) is that it’s a wonderful course that’s very playable but the price affects the appreciation over time. Our reluctant conclusion is that we’ve had our last rounds there.

Blown Away is a mobile outdoor experience company which specialises in beach based activities. which include Landyachting, Beach Kayaking, Stand up Paddle boarding, Surfing, Beach Olympics and many more. Action takes place on sandy beaches and shorelines around Scotland.
I took my kids (12 & 13 Boy & Girl) for a few experience days with the Blown away team, They had a couple of surf lessons and a Land Yachting session, we all thoroughly enjoyed both experiences and it was clear from the offset how good the day was going to be run given not only the professionalism of all the staff but the warm friendly welcome we received, my son really didn't want to surf but within the first 5 minutes he had changed his mind and now all I hear is "when can we go back....." Amazing experience from the guys and could thank you enough.

The love of a sport and appreciation of its history can turn a simple game into a rich experience.

The Experience St Andrews – formerly the Old Course Experience – is a long standing Authorised Provider of Old Course Tee Times by the St Andrews Links Trust. This makes us one of the few suppliers able to provide guaranteed tee times for the Old Course.
