The Westerwood Hotel and Golf Resort

About The Westerwood Hotel and Golf Resort Holiday Apartment

The golf course at the Westerwood was designed by Seve Ballesteros and Dave Thomasand is one of the best golf courses to be opened in Scotland in recent years.

Now the subject of a development programme designed to improve drainage and conditioningthe par-72 layout is stretched through silver birches and firsand the heathland and heather that are so typical of Scotland. The architects have created many holes that are tournament styleand the course will challenge the ball-striking of even the best players.

Notable holes include the fourth and sixthwhere Ballesteros and Thomas challenge their guests with treacherously positioned bunkers. Howeverthe signature hole is without doubt the magnificent par-3 15^thset against the backdrop of a 60-foot quarry face with a devilish burn skirting the front of the putting surface.
