All Courses

Proudly boasting its status as the world’s fifth oldest golf course, Montrose should be on the schedule for anyone who loves their golfing history. Located to the north of Arbroath on the Angus coast, its flagship 1562 course is a traditional links venue with fairways that undulate a little but not too much, and super-fast greens that often require just the deftest of touches.

If you’ve never experienced the wonders of links golf, Montrose is the ideal place to ignite the love affair that results. You’ll come across sand dunes, deep bunkers, long grass and lots of gorse waiting to trap your wayward drives. The only par-three hole on the front nine, the 3rd, is particularly impressive. Just 137 yards in length yet full of potential dangers. A purely-struck shot is a must, as is the accuracy that goes with it. And if you prefer a less challenging round, try the Broomfield Course, which is shorter but equally enjoyable.

You’ll find a wide range of accommodation options in the region, both in the tranquil countryside and in the towns and cities. Dundee is a popular choice for a base, as are Arbroath and Stonehaven. You can factor Montrose into a golfing tour that features several other local courses, including Monifieth, Carnoustie and Panmure.

Organising a golf tour, especially to another part of the world, can be stressful, frustrating and exhausting, so why not let our experts do everything for you? We can advise you on which courses would be best for your group, we can arrange the tee times that suit your schedule and we can take care of other matters such as transportation, accommodation and even sightseeing.

The team at Platinum Golf have a passion for golf and for Scotland, and we like nothing better than showing visitors how wonderful the game is when it’s played in its natural home. Scotland has the courses, you have the desire and we have the knowledge – what could be better? To find out more, email us today at enquiries@platinumgolfscotland.com or call 01382 477552. A whole new world of golfing excellence is ready and waiting to be discovered, so we hope that you’ll be in touch soon.

Overall, an excellent trip.

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!

Dale & Bobbie Schlitt

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!
