Day 4

Golf today on the New Course of St. Andrews (tbc), rated by many as the toughest of the St. Andrews Courses. Laid out by Old Tom Morris and opened in 1895. A great emphasis is placed on hitting the fairways as several holes have been carved through blankets of gorse bushes.


Overnight: Fairmont St Andrews: Fairmont Room - including Scottish breakfast (2 Rooms, 4 passengers)



Day 5

Today challenge the Old Course of St. Andrews (tbc), the ''Home of Golf''. The Old Course has played host to the greatest golfers in the world and produced many of golf's dramatic moments. Wide double fairways, seven extensive double greens, and a multitude of intimidating bunkers are just some of the unique features you will encounter.

Overnight: Fairmont St Andrews: Fairmont Room - including Scottish breakfast (2 Rooms, 4 passengers)


Day 6

Today play Carnoustie (tbc), host to the British Open on seven occasions and considered by many to be the most challenging of all Open venues. While the links is relatively flat it is exposed to the elements. A combination of length and accuracy are required from the tee and approach shots demand precision to the greens heavily guarded by steep bunkers and burns. Arguably the toughest finishing holes in championship golf, the course gained much praise following a testing but fair set up for the 2007 Open Championship. Please note there is one golf cart available to hire for medical certificate holders. Certain restrictions may apply, please advise your Golf Travel Specialist.

Day 7

Today play Kingsbarns (tbc). Its historical origins date back to 1793. Its sandy, linksland soils are the basis for this heritage, and produce the fine-bladed fescues which are the cornerstone of fast-and-firm playing surfaces that characterise links golf. Designed by Kyle Phillips and opened anew in 2000, its rebirth has been shared with golfers from near and far with outstanding reviews. The links features spacious rolling fairways, large greens, and exceptional sea views on every hole. A challenging yet enjoyable champion-standard traditional Scottish links course.

TRAVEL PROTECTION PLAN - PerryGolf recommends that you have luggage, accident and trip cancellation insurance. It is important for your own self-interest and protection that you make certain you have adequate coverage. Check with your insurance company or travel agent. You may learn more about the PerryGolf Travel Protection Plan by visiting here. The Travel Protection Plan will provide coverage if your cancellation is caused by a covered reason (e.g. sickness or injury) and you will receive a benefit, such as full reimbursement of all lost monies, under the terms and conditions of the Travel Protection Plan. If purchased within seven days of the initial deposit, this Protection Plan also includes a "Cancellation for Any Reason" waiver.

The Travel Protection Plan is only available to Citizens or Permanent Residents of the USA (excluding residents of the State of Washington) or Canada.

NOTE: The "Cancel for Any Reason" waiver is only available for travel to the British Isles (Scotland, England, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Wales). It is NOT available or offered to other PerryGolf destinations.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION


Changes: After deposits have been received and confirmation has been issued, any changes requested by the client are subject to an administrative fee of $50.00 per change per person in addition to any charges which may be made by suppliers for cancellations. In most cases, changes cannot be made less than 60 days before travel.

Handicap Certificate: Most courses require visitors to be a member of a recognized golf club and to hold official handicaps, with some courses imposing a maximum handicap restriction. PerryGolf endorses this viewpoint and recommends that players travel with a valid handicap certificate from their golf club which they may be required to produce.

Portable GPS Navigator: GPS systems are available for hire through National Car Rental at most major rental branches. Please check with your Agent for rates and locations.

*Old Course - Pricing like with like: Many travel companies readily provide price quotations for golf travel to Scotland including "guaranteed" play on the Old Course, St.Andrews. The reality is they are often unable to ultimately deliver the promise of an advance confirmed time, on the dates you wish to travel, due to their very limited access, and indeed you may only become aware of this at a relatively late stage in the process. When comparing price quotes and selecting a golf travel company for travel to the Home of Golf, be aware that PerryGolf, through an ongoing premium starting time contract, holds significantly more Old Course inventory than other golf tour operators and is in an unrivalled positon to deliver this promise. Candidly, this access comes at a significant cost to PerryGolf, which is reflected in our price quotation. Be assured however you are receiving greater value than "similar" quotations from many other companies.

The handicap limit for playing the Old Course is 24 for men and 36 for ladies. In addition, an official handicap card will be a prerequisite for play at the Old Course.

PerryGolf arrangements for providing confirmed access on the Old Course of St. Andrews may require a guaranteed minimum spend in the St. Andrews Links Clubhouse of £70 - £30 food & beverage & £40 merchandise per person. We will bill you in advance at the same time as your tour costs at the rate of $120 and provide you with redeemable vouchers.
