Stay by the sea, minutes from some of Scotland’s best loved links courses

Troon is a dream base for golfers, with six courses surrounding the town itself and even more championship golf within easy reach along the Ayrshire coast.

Scotland, the Home of Golf

Golf has been part of Scotland’s story for centuries, and here on the Ayrshire coast, you’re right in the thick of it. Cam is properly into his golf, especially the old school side of the game, and has a real soft spot for hickory golf, classic clubs and the craft behind them. He even restores old clubs himself, so if you’re a golfer, don’t be surprised if a quick chat turns into a full conversation about links, lies, shafts, swings and the magic of doing things the traditional way. Stay at Troon Beachfront and you can play some of Scotland’s finest courses by day, then come home to sea views, comfort and a well-earned dram by night.
