A true test of links golf on Scotland’s west coast.
Founded in 1878, Royal Troon Golf Club is one of the most prestigious and historic clubs in the world of golf. Recognised as a regular host of The Open Championship, it is famed for its challenging layout, deep revetted bunkers, and unpredictable coastal winds that make it a true examination of every golfer’s game. Tradition and history flow through the clubhouse and fairways, giving visitors an authentic links experience.
The Old Course at Royal Troon is regarded as one of the finest tests of championship golf, featuring iconic holes such as the fearsome 11th, known as the Railway, and the world-famous 8th hole, the Postage Stamp, which is one of the shortest yet most demanding par 3s in golf. The Portland Course, slightly more forgiving but equally enjoyable, provides an excellent complement for visiting golfers.
Set along the Ayrshire coastline, the club offers sweeping views across the Firth of Clyde towards the Isle of Arran, creating a dramatic backdrop to a round of golf. For serious golfers seeking a world-class challenge steeped in history, Royal Troon remains one of the game’s ultimate destinations.
