Golf in South Ayrshire
The Beechwood is right in the heart of Scotland's 'Golf Coast' near to the championship courses Royal Troon, Turnberry, Western Gailes, Glasgow Gailes, Kilmarnock, Barassie and Irvine Bogside. The most notable is Prestwick, the Birthplace of Open Championship Golf and mecca to golfers the world over. The first Open Championship was held at Prestwick in 1860. The 'Open' was played 24 times at Prestwick - the last in 1925 - thereafter the crowds became too large.
The choice of courses is endless. South Ayrshire's municipal courses offer superb golf and good value, especially Belleisle, Lochgreen and Darley. These excellent courses are extremely popular with visitors and locals alike.
Packages, including tee-off times to suit all standards and budgets, can be tailor made.
