Edzell Golf Club
There are an abundance of magnificent golf courses in the Angus region of Scotland. Known as the ‘Cradle of Golf’ in Scotland, the ancient county of Angus stretches through spectacular countryside, picturesque villages and vibrant towns, from the hills and glens to the coast and Tay Estuary.
Angus is home to the fifth oldest golf course in the world, Montrose Golf Links, and, just twelve miles north of Dundee, lies the championship golf course at Carnoustie which first hosted the Open in 1921.
Boasting a fantastic blend of links and heathland golf courses, Angus’ narrow fairways, long carries and undulating greens are a common characteristic of the landscape. The sweeping terrain and spectacular views make the region a highly recommended destination for a golf break.
Although there are a number of historic golf courses in the Angus region, by no means are the newer courses suffering. Set in the delightful village of Edzell –multiple winner of the national Britain in Bloom Competition – and ideally situated midway between Dundee and Aberdeen, Edzell Golf Club stands at the gateway of the Angus Glens reaching in to the foothills of the Grampian Mountains.
