Prestwick St Nicholas Golf Club is the 26th oldest Golf Club in the world. Old Tom Morris, winner of four Open Championships, was a founding/honorary member of the club, a traditional Scottish links golf course occupying a prime position on the shores of the Firth of Clyde.

The deep bunkers, running fairways, undulating greens and strands of gorse test the skills of players of all abilities and at 6044 yards, this par 69 course is a must for amateur golfers of all ages.

The splendid clubhouse sits yards from the shoreline and the finely manicured fairways offer year-round golf on a firm and generally frost-free footing. The course is playable when many others are not.

Take time to enjoy the views out over the Firth of Clyde towards Ailsa Craig and Arran – every bit as spectacular as those at Turnberry, a few miles further south.

When you have finished your round drop into our Clubhouse for a refreshing drink or a meal cooked by our award-winning chef. Savour the atmosphere and history of this 172-year-old club in luxurious, 21st Century surroundings.

As golfing experiences go, you cannot get much better. The question is not: “Why would I play Prestwick St Nicholas?” The question is “Why would you not?”

Bentfield is a Georgian house in its own grounds, about five minutes walk from St Nicolas Clubhouse along the seafront, or a one mile drive.

There’s direct access to the course itself.

There’s ample parking. It sleeps ten very comfortably and is self catering.

It has direct beach access and a hot tub. There’s a sheltered barbecue area too.

Enjoy the sunsets over the sea from the sunroom with a wee dram after a day on the golf course, the view over Arran and the Clyde is wonderful.

Two other living rooms face west, there’s plenty of room. The dining room faces west too, if you wish to be formal.

There’s a large kitchen with an AGA and excellent cooking facilities, also an informal eating area before a day’s golf.

The house is warm and cosy against the south westerly winds.

Prestwick station is an easy taxi ride away. Glasgow is the nearest international airport, about thirty miles away.

The house is very accessible by road too. Please look at the website for further details.
