Royal Troon | Golf Packages to South West Scotland

Located in Troon on the west coast of Scotland overlooking the Isle of Arran, Royal Troon Golf Club is one of the great links courses in Scotland and plays host to The Open Championship. Founded in 1878 by a few enthusiasts Royal Troon Golf Club has outgrown its purely local reputation and is now known as one of the finest championship courses in the world.

As host to the Open Championship, it is on the wish list of many visiting golfers and recently the club has recognised this and opened up more tee times for non-members. It still remains only possible to play Royal Troon on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday’s

In most recent times the course has hosted the Open in 2004 and 2016, and in 2008 was the venue for the British Seniors in 2009 and is regularly used for The Scottish Amateur Championship.

The facilities at Royal Troon have also undergone dramatic changes in the past few years with new visitor facilities and a pro shop being added onto the existing clubhouse building. Royal Troon now offers the history and heritage that you’d expect from such a venerable club with the comforts expected by the 21st Century golfing traveller

Royal Troon forms part of St Andrews Golf Travel‘s South West Scotland Golf Experiences. Combine this with rounds at Turnberry, Prestwick and Western Gailes and you will experience some of the best links golf anywhere in the world

I had the great pleasure of working, on behalf of a client, with Marc of St Andrews Golf Travel in setting up a once in a lifetime golf trip for 12 keen golfers. Marc’s organisational skills in setting up a 12 day trip from start to finish have been exceptional, including making sure all transport times coincided with the tee times of this large group. His attention to detail in the planning of every aspect of this trip is to be highly commended, as well as his knowledge of all things local, including restaurant recommendations. Marc was also personally onsite every day to travel with the group to each course and to ensure all went smoothly and to handle all personal requests on the day. Marc also arranged two great bespoke days of fishing and shooting (with lunch at Drumlanrig Castle) which the guys really appreciated and enjoyed! As well as being extremely professional at all times, Marc is so easy-going and friendly and I would not hesitate in recommending him and his team in helping anyone who is looking to set up the golf experience of a lifetime. Thanks Marc and SAGT – I hope that we will get the opportunity to work together again!

Like so many others, our trip was delayed two years and rescheduled four times because of Covid. Through it all, Graeme patiently worked with us. If I emailed him he responded within a few hours. When we arrived in August 2022 we were treated to the 5 star experience we were promised - golf, hotel, transportation, etc. We even got to play The Old Course! If you want the trip of a lifetime, I wholeheartedly recommend St Andrews Golf Travel

After almost three years, we finally made it and Graeme delivered as advertised. Just an amazing experience for all of us and a true bucket list accomplishment. Will never forget it. Thanks St Andrews Golf Travel and special thanks to Graeme for taking care of us! Well done!

We had a group of 4 golfers from PEI, Canada that waited 3 years to get to St Andrews due to Covid. This group exceeded our expectations in many ways, form the time we stepped off the plane and were greeted by Ewan (driver) and someone i can now call a friend to Claire greeting us at the house with a gracious smile and Angus for his local expertise on golf, shopping, restaurants and pubs. St Andrews Golf Travel truly made our trip well worth it. Thanks to Marc and Graeme for all the re bookings, off the wall accommodation requests and crazy questions. These guys leave nothing unturned.

Just returned from a magical golf trip to St. Andrews, Scotland. After 2 years of Covid related cancellations, Graeme managed to arrange an incredible array of golf for the 8 of us, including a last minute booking of 2 helicopters to transport us to Muirfield! Everything went smooth as silk, with Graeme and Ewan serving as our drivers and tour guides through the week. Thank you both for making our trip so effortless, it was perfect! We especially want to thank you for arranging glorious and dry weather the entire time. If you haven’t used St. Andrews Golf Travel to assist you with your trip you NEED to!! They’re experts in everything Scotland and Ireland and have now expanded to Australia and New Zealand.

Sherry Schafer September 2022

We began planning our Ireland golf trip with Marc at St. Andrews Golf in 2019 .... he expertly navigated us through the required cancellations. We have just returned from our 10 days and were so happy with all arrangements and planning. Our driver was with us throughout and made the transfers so easy while noting so many landmarks and history of the beautiful countryside. We will look forward to our next opportunity to use St Andrews Golf Travel and will wholeheartedly recommend.

Mark Marchetti September 2022

I can’t emphasize enough how much I enjoyed, without exaggeration, the golf trip of a lifetime! The professionalism exhibited by Marc and Graeme, along with their attention to detail, and excellent customer service, was totally first class. Two great guys, accomplished golfers, who get it! If you’re considering a trip to the home of golf, I highly recommend St. Andrews Golf Travel!!

Chris King September 2022

Graeme and his team put together a trip that was 100% successful, right down to the weather-no rain during golf for 6 days. Ewan shared great stories while driving us to world class golf, and the prearranged dinners were all very good. Personal attention from the team with good recommendations for our non golf days made the trip a total joy.

Craig McQuillen September 2022

We’ve just completed a visit to St Andrews arranged by Graeme over 3 years ago and delayed by Covid. Graeme could not have been easier to deal with in the time prior to our trip and on the ground, both he and Ewan our other driver were professional, Friendly, Helpful and a great deal of fun. No stone was left unturned, our accommodation at The Fairmont was 1st class, the courses we played were tremendous & Graeme even helped a few of our party secure both Old Course times through the Ballot & a tee time at Prestwick post our official time with them. I couldn’t recommend their business highly enough, they knew all the little things that a self arranged trip may miss and never know! Thanks guys!

Mitchell Song September 2022

Graeme helped my group for almost three years due to the delay caused by Covid-19. He was very responsive and helpful throughout. The experience at St. Andrews was exceptional, which would not have been possible without his assistance. I will be his unofficial salesman in Korea
