A Historic Hidden Gem – Balcomie Links at Crail Golfing Society
|
Discover Balcomie Links, one of Scotland’s oldest golf courses, offering breathtaking coastal views and a traditional links challenge near St. Andrews.Cail Golfing Society is the 7th oldest golf club in the world. The Balcomie Links ( Old Course) was designed by Tom Morris in 1892. The holes tend to be short and somewhat quirky. Old Tom designed the course in such a way as to take maximum advantage of its exhilarating seaside location.
Shots over rocky bays, long par threes with greens perched on top of vertical cliffs, shots to greens seemingly engulfed by gorse, curving par fours round sandy strands - daring the golfer to cut off too much, shots from cliff tops to greens and fairways invitingly laid out below: all these and more make up the Balcomie experience. |
