Edinburgh & The Lothians

Golf Tours Edinburgh & The Lothians

Edinburgh, the Athens of the North, is the ideal centre for golf tours and holidays. Not only is it surrounded by courses, but the city offers a wealth of attractions. In addition there can be few shopping streets that can rival Princes Street with its splendid views over the Gardens to the Castle, which dominates the skyline. The city is often described as one of the most beautiful in Europe and in keeping with that accolade, offers a wide variety of restaurants, bars and nightlife.

To the east of the city, fringing the coast, lies a string of villages and small towns where, as elsewhere in Scotland, golf is not as much a pastime as a way of life. Notable is the village of Gullane, which boasts, in all, five 18 hole golf courses including the world famous Muirfield, a regular British Open venue.
