Pressed for time but still craving world-class golf? Scotland delivers in spades. From Friday-to-Sunday escapes to midweek stay-and-play packages, short golf breaks in Scotland offer the perfect way to squeeze in unforgettable rounds on legendary courses—without needing a full-blown holiday. Whether you want to walk in the footsteps of legends in St Andrews, explore East Lothian’s links, or enjoy a scenic Highland escape, ProScot Golf curates golf weekend breaks Scotland can be proud of. With customisable itineraries, access to top tee times, and exclusive partner deals, our golf breaks Scotland special offers blend quality and convenience. Ideal for couples, groups, or corporate getaways, a short break could be just what your game—and your soul—needs.
1. The Classic St Andrews Weekend
Stay at the iconic Old Course Hotel or the charming Rusacks Hotel and enjoy two nights in the Home of Golf. Tee off at the New Course, Jubilee, or the Eden Course—each offering a unique taste of St Andrews’ legendary layout. Add whisky tastings or a visit to the British Golf Museum for a well-rounded experience.
2. East Lothian Golf Coast Getaway
Perfect for 2–3 night breaks, East Lothian boasts courses like North Berwick, Gullane, and Craigielaw. Stay at the Marine Hotel in North Berwick for quick access to the fairways and seaside relaxation. Pair your rounds with fresh seafood dining or a visit to nearby Edinburgh for an evening of culture and cuisine.
3. Highlands Short Escape
Fly into Inverness and stay at the Ness Walk Hotel for a luxurious Highland break. Play Castle Stuart and Nairn while soaking in scenic views of the Moray Firth. Add a day at Glenmorangie or Dalwhinnie Distillery to wind down post-round. Ideal for couples or solo travellers wanting nature, quiet, and top-tier golf.
4. Ayrshire Coast Weekend
Turnberry delivers an unforgettable 2-night break with rounds on the Ailsa and King Robert the Bruce Courses. The Trump Turnberry resort offers fine dining, a full-service spa, and oceanfront views that transform a short stay into a luxury retreat. Great for anniversaries, client hosting, or splashing out on a special occasion.
5. Fife Links Mini Tour
A lesser-known but equally memorable short break: combine Crail, Elie, and Lundin Links. Stay locally in a boutique hotel or country inn and enjoy classic Scottish links without the crowds. Ideal for experienced golfers looking to explore gems just outside St Andrews.

Excellent
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.

Read moreI 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.

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.
Thank you ProScott Golf Tours for an amazing time in Scotland! Five historic courses in six days including Carnoustie and the Old Course. If you are going to go to Golf’s holy land, go with a local that knows golf. Prompt, professional, informative, flexible and above all fun to be with, Nicola and John really take care of you like family. They have pre-thought about everything for your convenience, comfort and enjoyment! You are taken care of from landing to takeoff. Thank you ProScott GOLF Tours.
