The county Ayrshire, south of Glasgow, is littered with fantastic seaside courses. Within 20 minutes of each other you will find no less than 30 seaside courses, many of them have hosted major competitions like the British Open and the Scottish Open.
If you take the train from Glasgow you actually pass through several of the courses! The towns of Ayr and Prestwick have now more or less grown together into one, both of them have a large selection of hotels, bed & breakfasts, restaurants, bars and pubs.
Some, including us, find that the West coast of Scotland is not quite as windy, and not quite as cold as the East coast, and the weather is often better here in the shoulder season.

Trump Turnberry Hotel
The iconic Trump Turnberry Hotel has survived a lot the last 100 or so years since it was first built. During the war years the military used as a base, both for personnel but also for injured soldiers. Today it’s a 5-star luxury resort with its very own helipad!
All rooms are beautifully decorated in dark blue and gold, even the taps in the bathroom are in gold…Everything is top of the range, from the amazing beds to the enormous flat screen TVs. The hotel has several restaurants and bars, all looking out towards the famous light house, the Ailsa Course, and of course the sea.
Their spa is also something very special, with probably the best view a golfer could ask for! If you are travelling in a large group Trump Turnberry also has villas with up to 8 bedrooms and large social areas.
Guests get preferential green fee rates which makes it quite good value if you wish to play both courses or more.
