Invasion of Scotland by Swedish golfers

Welcome to my blog, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

The number of Swedish visitors to Scotland is rising and Swedes now account for 10% of visitors to Scotland. One of the biggest draws for the Swedes is the ability to play on Scottish golf courses during Winter as many Swedish courses shut down for the Winter. Several low cost airlines fly between Sweden and Scotland.

Well the Swedes have plenty of golf courses courses from which to choose. The Old Course at St Andrews in Fife is a hot favourite, Just east of Edinburgh, East Lothian is nicknamed the Golf Coast and one of the most unusual courses in East Lothian is the Old Links in Musselburgh, located in the middle of the horse racing track. Then there’s the Carnoustie Links in Angus, north of Dundee.

My plea to the golfers is to spend some time away from the courses and visit the surrounding countryside and towns
