Our List of Ten
The Links at Kingsbarns
Everyone loves lists and Monarchs House is no exception. Lists bring order, weighting, and conversation. And just because it is our list, it doesn’t have to be yours as well.
Today, we decided to put together our list of 10 things you should know about playing links golf for the first time. It is by no means definitive but something for you to consider if you are playing true links golf in the UK and Ireland.
All About Price – $241 vs. $552 per night
Whenever we are asked about golfing in Scotland, we are always answering 3 questions: can you get me on the Old Course, what’s the weather like at that time of year and how much is this trip going to cost on a per person basis. Fair questions all. We have answered questions about the Old here and weather here but we have never talked about prices before. Until now.
Buddy Trips
Buddy trips are a wonderful way to have both a great time and get some economies of scale on the cost side. The only issue with this type of trip is in the details and the details are what makes a trip marginal or fantastic. The first and most important decision that needs to made above and beyond anything else is who is going to be the lead person on the trip. You cannot do this with more than one person heading up your group. Look at this person as your benevolent dictator.
