Blairgowrie ( Rosemount )
This is one of Scotland ’ s most highly rated inland courses and it only takes a minute to see why . Home to three courses and Scotland ’ s ‘ Best Clubhouse ’ ( 2017 Scottish Golf Tourism Awards ), you ’ ll be immersed in the course ’ s avenues of whispering trees and blankets of heather from the moment you tee off . The trees embrace greens like amphitheatres and hitting approach shots promises a backdrop of endless colour . Yes , the Rosemount is a pretty affair and also a very playable one as generous fairways and crisp turf make driving a joy . Greens offer large targets but the undulations will challenge golfers of all abilities . The two-tiered green on the acclaimed par three 17th is a case in point and the 18th will ruin many a card . The design is mostly James Braid , with flourishes of Alister MacKenzie thrown in .

Did You Know ?
There is also a 9-hole course ( par 32 ) here named the ‘ Wee Course ’. It was designed by James Braid in 1930 , and has been virtually untouched since then . Definitely worth a round .
