For many years Lundin hosted the Final Qualifying stages of The Open Championship, when it was held in St. Andrews. Anstruther Golf Club Anstruther Golf Club is a nine-hole golfing experience that you will never forget. The par 3 fifth hole is touted as the most difficult par 3 in Scotland. I would wager it qualifies as one of the most difficult in the world. At 240 yards the green is partially hidden between a steep rocky cliff and the Firth of Forth. A shot hit to the middle of the fairway short of the green will ultimately roll sideways and be lost to a watery grave. The sixth and seventh holes are also difficult par 3’s that will challenge any golfer.

North Berwick Founded in 1832, North Berwick is listed as the fourth oldest course in the world and sits across the Firth of Forth from Kingsbarns, Crail and Dumbarnie. The course has hosted final qualifying for the OPEN Championship on several occasions, as well as the Scottish Amateur. Stone fences, berns and gently rolling topography make this a true test of golf. Along the route when driving to North Berwick from Edinburgh, Musselburgh, Muirfield and Gullane can also be visited.

Beware driving on the opposite side of the road is challenging, plus the narrow curving country roads add an exciting flair to your golfing adventure.
