Crail Golfing Society is the 7th Oldest Golf Club in the world. Our members and guests have been enjoying some of the finest links golf in Scotland - many say the world - since 1786. Golfing legend Old Tom Morris laid out the original nine holes at Balcomie in 1895 and in 1998 a second course, Craighead Links, was designed by Gil Hanse, who has since achieved admiration for many courses including the new Castle Stuart course near Inverness.

Balcomie Links

A combination of stunning coastal views, centuries of history and hugely enjoyable golf is what makes Balcomie Links one of Scotland's most finely polished, golfing gems.This traditional, classic links course was laid out by the old master himself, Tom Morris, and opened in 1895. Balcomie has the unusual combination of three par fives, six par threes and nine par fours, producing a tough par of 69. Not content with a devilishly testing layout, Old Tom designed the course in such a way as to take maximum advantage of its exhilarating seaside location. Shots over rocky bays, long par threes with greens perched on top of vertical cliffs, shots to greens seemingly engulfed by gorse, curving par fours round sandy strands - daring the golfer to cut off too much, shots from cliff tops to greens and fairways invitingly laid out below: all these and more make up the Balcomie experience.

Craighead Links

With spectacular views - the sea is visible from every hole - Craighead Links is a challenging, cliff-top course designed by world-renowned, golf course architect Gil Hanse. Built in the style of a traditional links course - with no trees protecting golf shots from the wind - Craighead provides panoramic views of up to 100 miles, legally protected Sites of Special Scientific Interest flanking the 13th and 14th holes, and a World War I pill box behind the 7th green, all in addition to serious golf. Featuring 'Danes Dyke' - a 1200 year old defensive wall built by Viking marauders to keep out the local Pictish tribes and which comes into play on four holes - Craighead Links was opened in 1998. With no two consecutive holes facing in the same direction, managing the wind is a significant factor in playing the course. As Gil Hanse's first course outside the USA, Craighead Links provides a contrast to Balcomie, but with many natural similarities. The combined ticket giving play on both courses is the ideal way to experience the Crail golfing challenge.
