Golf has been played in the Gullane area since at least 1650, and the club has three superb courses ready and waiting to wow the visitor. Each of them has its own unique character, and whichever one you choose to play you can be sure of a wonderful experience. Gullane No. 1, the oldest of the three, has hosted Open Championship qualifiers and Scottish Opens for both the men and women.

One of the more intimidating holes on No. 1 is the second, also known, appropriately, as Windygate. It’s difficult despite only having one bunker, in part because the fairway climbs rather steeply to a narrow green. Accuracy is the key, especially if you aren’t a good player out of the rough. On the tee box, take your time, breathe deeply and keep that swing smooth!

Gullane No. 2 and No. 3 are equally impressive, so you may want to include them all on your itinerary. No. 2 runs alongside No. 1 for several holes, while No. 3 has some stunning views across Aberlady Bay. All visitors can also make use of the exceptional practice facilities to be found here, so get ready to hone your skills before savouring an exceptional round of golf.

The area surrounding Gullane is a popular spot for tourists, so you’ll have plenty to explore if you have a day off during your trip. You could choose to head into Edinburgh and explore this historic city, for example, or you may want to stay local and enjoy Gullane Beach, North Berwick and Dunbar. Muirfield, one of the world’s most famous golf clubs, is also close by.

Organising a golf tour for you and your friends can be an onerous task, but the team at Platinum Golf can do all the legwork for you. We can advise on which courses will appeal to you, before finding the tee times that fit in with your schedule. And as if that wasn’t enough, we can arrange sightseeing trips, accommodation choices, transportation and more. Just call 01382 477552 today to find out more.

Overall, an excellent trip.

Thanks

Hi Lynda & Stuart

We are back on home turf. We had a fantastic trip. No glitches anywhere except the rainout at County Sligo – but we can’t control the weather.

The four courses we played were all in great condition with super nice .

St Anne’s was a great start, the easiest of the four for me but a very nice lynx course.

The hotel accommodation Slieve Russell, grounds and amenities were superb.

Stuart you sure know how to put together courses for a golf tour and Lynda the accommodation at both the RIU and Slieve Russell were top notch. …great job.

Thank you for the welcoming gifts. You sure were generous.

This trip was sure worth the two year wait.

Thanks so much,

Cheers P&P

Hi Lynda,

Well it was great to see you and Stuart again, that was a great evening!  Thank you to both of you for an amazing trip, everyone has been talking about how great it was!  It may be possible that the wives had more fun that the guys did, they’re already talking about their own golf trip without the husbands.  They’ve really been bitten by the golf bug, especially my wife!!

Thanks again!

Chris

Dear Stuart & Lynda,

A most heartfelt “Thank You” for your planning, coordinating & customer service in making our 2022 Scotland Golf Trip so memorable!  Your detailed itinerary, efforts and professionalism were nothing short of  “World Class” and much appreciated !

Personally, it was so enjoyable revisiting Scotland after a 20 year absence, but even more enjoyable having our group experience for the first time the magic of St. Andrews & Scotland…you have a remarkable & beautiful  country.

It was a pleasure meeting you both and again appreciate your efforts to ensure we had a great vacation! We will not hesitate to refer others or use Platinum Golf for future Golf Trips…Ireland 202?

All the best for health, happiness and prosperity!

Thank u so much for looking after us overall and especially my mid-week disruption
Our arrival and playing experience at St Patrick’s Links was stellar.
The Rosapenna Thing is on par with both Bandon Dunes and Cabot Cape Breton as a one facility golfing heaven. Big brawny links tracks modernized with welcoming landing areas in the fairways.
At St Patrick’s makeshift but stylish golf shop* and checkin I had the great pleasure of netting John and Frank Casey…. So young they are, and so enthusiastic and engage-able. Lovely gents growing Rosapenna’s reputation.
So it goes .. cheers to Ireland, cheers to Platinum Golf Scotland
Stuart: The welcome package ,very thoughtful and the whiskeys are/were delicious!

Ron B and crew

We are back safely, thanks. It was lovely to see you both get together and share a We had such a good time in both Scotland and Ireland and look forward to visiting again.
The Tralee, and Waterville courses were amongst the best courses we have ever played, ranking up there with Dumbarnie and the Old course. The Island course was equally beautiful, but both of us found the dunes a challenge.
As for accommodations, we really enjoyed being in the heart of Dublin’s Temple District. Thank you for such a well planned and organized trip. We created many wonderful memories, that we’ll cherish for a lifetime. We really appreciate your help to make this trip so memorable.

We’re on our way to Edinburgh. Thanks for the kind note, I absolutely loved every minute of it, even when I was in the rough and losing balls! The program you put together was everything we could have expected and your customer service was perfect; thank you for going above and beyond…

Stuart and Platinum Golf Scotland provided a terrific itinerary for a spectacular golf and whisky (and, of course, food) experience in Scotland! The checking in, touching base, and above the call of duty service provided during our trip was great! No doubt that they would be a go to for any future travel to the UK. Thanks a bunch for making it an experience of a lifetime!
