Sample Golf Itinerary
One of the services included with a Monarchs House let is constructing and booking your golf itinerary. As a result, we are frequently asked to give our opinion on the definitive Scottish golfing itinerary. While we are not the hem and haw type, we also know that the answer is not the answer most golfers are waiting to hear. Here’s why.
Ireland or Scotland?
Golfers who like to travel will ultimately face this dilemma; should we go to Ireland or Scotland? For us the seminal last word is a piece in Links Magazine by George Pepper about the differences between the two countries. Keep in mind this is a bit like picking between Kate Beckinsale or Charlize Theron, you really can’t go wrong with either. But you do have to make a choice and hopefully this piece will help.
All You Need is Love…and this
Even shorts will do the trick...sometimes
It doesn’t matter what time of year that you are traveling, this is what you need for a seven day trip to the east coast of Scotland.
