Angus Dundee 

Home to many of the oldest golf courses

Angus is home to some of the oldest and most respected golf courses in Scotland. For example, Carnoustie Golf Links, with its legendary Carnoustie Championship course, which has hosted a number of British Opens. This course presents a challenge for any player.

In 1953, Ben Hogan won his only Open Championship at Carnoustie Golf Links. It was his last Major win and his only visit to Scotland. The man the Scots called “Wee Ice Mon” cemented his legendary reputation thanks to the help of Panmure Golf Club, where he spent time before The Open and practiced on the Panmure course.

Venture further afield from the east coast and you’ll find some wonderful inland courses such as the highly rated Downfield in Dundee, the old course at Letham Grange and the heathland gem at Cunninghill in Forfar.
