Sorry if I am bringing up a tired topic, but I am looking for some ideas...
I am planning an October trip to play in Great Britain or Ireland. This will be my fifth trip and I have played many terrific courses, including Turnberry, Prestwick, Loch Lomond, St. Andrews, Royal Dornoch, Royal Aberdeen, Cruden Bay, Nairn, Brora, Royal Dublin Portmarnock, Royal Portrush, Portstewart, Castlerock, and Lahinch.
This year, I only have four days to play. I plan to leave on a Wednesday night and return on a Monday morning.
My question is this: Where would you recommend I go to play a good group of links courses? I want to minimize travel and driving time, stay in one hotel if possible (two if necessary), play courses I haven't played before (see above). I don't need to play a different course every day, but I am in search of a quality experience.
Any suggestions?
