Aberdour
Aberdour Golf Club: as you journey into Fife from the southwest, perhaps heading for the golf courses of St Andrews and the like, you'll pass three of the Kingdom's lesser known, shorter, and wonderfully scenic layouts - Aberdour, Burntisland (aka Dodhead) and Kinghorn.
With several holes tightly hugging the Firth of Forth shoreline, Aberdour is a clifftop parkland course, and one of Scotland's most scenic. Measuring just 5,500-yards, the par of 67 includes six par-3s and one par-5. Here you will enjoy memorable views onto Barnhill Bay, Inchcolm Island and Bellhouse Rock.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.
