| Golf is a very
popular sport in the area as are a variety of country pursuits
including horse riding, shooting and fishing. As with many Scottish
regions, golf dominates the annual sporting and leisure calendar.
The main arterial routes accessing the Borders Region are the
A1, A7 and A68 which run from the North to the South linking
Edinburgh with London, Newcastle and Carlisle. The A72 traverses
the region from east to west. The nearest airport is in Edinburgh.
Whichever route you choose golfing in the borders is worth the
journey. The major towns in the region are Selkirk, Jedburgh,
Hawick, Kelso Galashiels, and Melrose. Each has an associated
Golf Course nearby. The area is also recognised for it’s traditional
9 hole holiday courses, the borders boasts 21 Golf courses,
12 of which are stunning 18 hole courses. The outstanding scenic
environment belies the level of golfing skills required with
such golfing luminaries as Colin Montgomery and Nick Faldo finding
the Borders golf courses some of the most challenging
in the country, particularly at Hawick. Characterised by rolling
hills to the west and flatter ‘Merse’ land to the east, the
Borders Region is dominated by the famous River Tweed which
flows through the region to Berwick upon Tweed in Northumberland.
So whatever your skill level you will find a warm welcome and
a golfing environment that will enhance your playing whether
inspired by the views, the course design or by the many professionals
who will offer tuition and advice particular to each course. |
