Random Thoughts from the Home of Golf
The golf world will miss the greatness and genius that was Seve Ballesteros. He won the Open Championship three times, twice at Royal Lytham & St Annes and once on the Old Course in 1984. Our favorite quote of Seve’s is indicative of his warmth, humour and ability to not take things too seriously. When asked about four putting the 16th green at the 1990 Masters, Seve memorably replied, “I miss, I miss, I miss, I make.” RIP Severiano Ballesteros.
Golf Plans in 2010
Have you made your plans to come to Scotland in 2010 yet? Monarchs House is now taking reservations for the new season.
If you haven’t been in awhile, there are new courses to play. The Castle Course, featured to the left, is just a mile from Monarchs House and is the 12th course in St Andrews. The course everyone is talking about is the Highland gem, Castle Stuart. Read the review of the new course by downloading here.
If golf isn’t your primary concern, visit for the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The Edinburgh Festival Fringe is the biggest arts festival in the world, with something for everyone: theatre, comedy, music, dance, exhibitions and much more. Or come instead for the Edinburgh Military Tattoo. Against the backdrop of Edinburgh Castle, the world’s most spectacular Tattoo will host a celebration of talent from four continents including pipers, gymnasts, singers, dancers and an amazing motorcycle display team.
There is truly something for everyone and we at Monarchs would be delighted to host you.
