A host of well-known venues are spotlighted including Open Championship classics Carnoustie and Turnberry, modern links masterpiece Kingsbarns, and Gleneagles, home to the 2014 Ryder Cup.

Keith Mitchell, Director of Product and Marketing at Golfbreaks.com, said: “I can think of no better way to mark the 150th anniversary of the Open Championship and its return to The Old Course at St. Andrews, than by experiencing some of the best golf Scotland has to offer.

“With the help and support of VisitScotland, we’ve selected some of the highest quality golf breaks from across the region, including some classic venues like The Turnberry Resort, for example, which starts from just £185.”

As part of the promotion, Golfbreaks.com customers are also being given the chance to win ‘A Perfect Golf Day’ for two, hosted by Scotland’s very own ambassador of golf, Sam Torrance. The prize includes a round of golf with Sam on Carnoustie’s Championship course, a 2-nights’ stay at a luxury hotel, dinner at the exclusive R&A Clubhouse in St. Andrews, hosted by Sam, plus £150 travel allowance and £100 spending money.
