DUNDONALD Links has connected with ScotRail to offer special tee times for train travelling golf players.

There are more than 550 golf courses across Scotland, many of which are conveniently located near to railway stations, and ScotRail has teamed up with 20 of them to offer a discount to golfers who travel to the course by train, including Dundonald Links.

Golfers will receive a 20 per cent discount off standard day green fees when they show a valid rail ticket for that day’s travel or Club 50 card. 

A full list of the participating golf courses, and terms and conditions, can be found on the ScotRail website at www.scotrail.co.uk/golf-offers 

Alasdair Smart, ScotRail Tourism Manager, said: “With the new golf season about to get underway, it's the time of the year when golfers are looking ahead and planning where they would most like to play, and with the home of golf on our doorstep, there’s no better place to play than in Scotland. 

“Scotland has close to 100 courses within walking distance of the railway, and we’re delighted to have teamed with many of them to offer golfers a fantastic discount on their tee time when they travel by train. 

“Whether you’re looking for a heathland or true links experience, James Braid or Old Tom Morris design, there’s a wealth of fantastic courses within a short walk from the station, allowing you to leave the car at home and enjoy a well-earned beverage after your round.”
