Golf today on the New Course of St. Andrews, rated by many as
the toughest of the St. Andrews Courses. Laid out by Old Tom Morris and opened
in 1895. A great emphasis is placed on hitting the fairways as several holes
have been carved through blankets of gorse bushes.
Overnight: Fairmont
St Andrews: Fairmont Room - including Scottish breakfast (2 Rooms, 4

Day 4
Today challenge the Old Course of St. Andrews, the
''Home of Golf''. The Old Course has played host to the greatest golfers in the
world and produced many of golf's dramatic moments. Wide double fairways, seven
extensive double greens, and a multitude of intimidating bunkers are just some
of the unique features you will encounter.

Day 5
Today play Carnoustie, host to the British Open on seven
occasions and considered by many to be the most challenging of all Open venues.
While the links is relatively flat it is exposed to the elements. A combination
of length and accuracy are required from the tee and approach shots demand
precision to the greens heavily guarded by steep bunkers and burns. Arguably the
toughest finishing holes in championship golf, the course gained much praise
following a testing but fair set up for the 2007 Open Championship. Please note
there is one golf cart available to hire for medical certificate holders.
Certain restrictions may apply, please advise your Golf Travel
Specialist.

Protection Plan will provide coverage if your cancellation is caused by a
covered reason (e.g. sickness or injury) and you will receive a benefit, such as

Handicap Certificate: Most courses require visitors to be

courses imposing a maximum handicap restriction. PerryGolf endorses this
viewpoint and recommends that players travel with a valid handicap certificate
from their golf club which they may be required to produce.
*Old
Course - Pricing like with like: Many travel companies readily provide price
quotations for golf travel to Scotland including "guaranteed" play on the Old
Course, St.Andrews. The reality is they are often unable to ultimately deliver
the promise of an advance confirmed time, on the dates you wish to travel, due
to their very limited access, and indeed you may only become aware of this at a
relatively late stage in the process. When comparing price quotes and
selecting a golf travel company for travel to the Home of Golf, be aware that
PerryGolf, through an ongoing premium starting time contract, holds
significantly more Old Course inventory than other golf tour operators and is in
an unrivalled positon to deliver this promise. Candidly, this access comes at a
significant cost to PerryGolf, which is reflected in our price quotation. Be
assured however you are receiving greater value than "similar" quotations from
many other companies.
The handicap limit for playing the Old
Course is 24 for men and 36 for ladies. In addition, an official handicap card
will be a prerequisite for play at the Old Course.
PerryGolf
arrangements for providing confirmed access on the Old Course of St. Andrews may
require a guaranteed minimum spend in the St. Andrews Links Clubhouse of £70 -
£30 food & beverage & £40 merchandise per person. We will bill you in
advance at the same time as your tour costs at the rate of $120 and provide you
with redeemable vouchers.
