Changes to UK Travel Requirements!

Everyone travelling to the UK will need to obtain an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) before their journey.

What is an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA)?

  • An ETA is a digital travel permission allowing entry to the UK for visits of up to 6 months.
  • Eligibility depends on:
    • Your travel date.
    • Your nationality, as listed on your passport.

Here’s What You Need To Know:

  • Starting 8th January 2025, visitors from non-EU countries, and from 5th March 2025, visitors from EU countries, will be required to obtain an ETA before travelling to the UK.
  • The ETA will cost £10 per applicant and will be linked to your passport.
  • It will allow multiple trips and be valid for two years or until your passport expires, whichever comes first.
  • Every traveller must complete the ETA application process online. Please visit GOV.UK for further information on who can get an ETA and how to apply before coming to the UK.

Excellent

Based on 40 reviews

John and Nicola were perfect hosts. They took care of everything and it made our trip unforgettable. Their attention to detail is incredible and everything went smoothly. We had a guaranteed tee time for the Old Course which was the centerpiece of the trip. And they were very fun and nice people to be around. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a Scottish golf vacation.

I could not imagine a better managed golf trip - everything was first class... from the transportation to the lodging to the dining. John and Nikola were an absolute joy to coordinate with. John is a knowledgeable and hilarious tour guide - our group really enjoyed his company. John was attentive, punctual, and high energy. I can't recommend ProScot enough and I hope to use their services again in the future.

What a perfect vacation with 5 beautiful days of golf. Nicola was great. She ensured we were in the Old Course balloting-system and that we were also checked in for the Old Course singles daily lottery. I was fortunate to secure two opportunities to play the Old Course. Nicola went out her way many times, including traveling back to pick me up from another course to ensure I made my Old Course check in time. She also meet up with me on the 18th tee to follow me in while taking pictures of a very memorable experience. ProScotGolf provides exceptional customer service and value. I will be planning my next trip soon.

Short answer: Stop looking, and hire ProScot. They're the best.

Longer answer: We recommend ProScot to everyone planning a UK/Ireland golf trip. We had three golf days over four nights in St Andrews. ProScot reserved a perfect short-term rental (all the amenities, perfect location, surprisingly low price), and secured tee times at the St Andrews Old, New, and Castle courses.

Nicola waited at Edinburgh airport for our delayed arriving flight, and drove us to St Andrews in ProScot's luxury van, with water and snacks. And even though our apartment was about a 9-iron from the First Tee, Nicola picked us up each day, took us to the practice facility and first tee box, and primed us with water and snack bars.

On the day we miscalculated the proper caddy gratuity and realized, on the first tee, that we were short on currency, Nicola raced to an ATM and sorted us out -- no questions, no fuss. Just fixing whatever needs fixing, with grace, and no stress.

When we played the Castle Course, our driver -- John -- regaled us with stories that only PGA Professionals possess, then gave us a couple incredibly useful tips at the practice facility.

After the trip we thought we had missed, or owed, an additional payment to ProScot. Nope. We had paid in full what they charged. Best value ever.
