The full length of Kingsbarns runs next to majestic views of the North Sea. Only six miles from St Andrews, it is one of the most important of the famous links courses in the region. Originally built in 1793, the course was re-modelled by Kyle Phillips and re-opened in 2000, incorporating many of the natural curves of the landscape including its own burn.

This is links golf at its best. The firm and rolling turf with spectacular vistas, and golf as you have always thought it should be. Each and every hole is a thrill.
