Product Description
Thoroughly revised for travel in 2009-10, Golf in Scotland is designed to help travelers save money by planning their own trips to Scotland, the "Home of Golf." Seven chapters offer advice on when to go, where to go, lodging, tee times, and other travel decisions. St. Andrews receives special attention in its own chapter. Extensive descriptions of sixty-eight courses and their settings feature complete contact and booking information. A bonus section detailing five new Scottish courses is featured in this revised edition. Appendices include a "Golf-Readiness Checklist," a compendium of useful websites, and an annotated bibliography for further reading. The book is fully indexed. Golf in Scotland has been published in various editions since 2001 and is considered by many, "the bible of Scottish Travel."

Allan Ferguson Review February 5, 2010
JCB (Fort Worth, TX)
I have been to Scotland six times and utilized "Golf in Scotland" for my trip planning and reservations the last four times. The book is outstanding - all phone numbers, email addresses, and visitor policies for golfers are precise and accurate. I also believe the recommendations for golf courses, car rentals, hotel-B&B's and general travel tips are first rate.
This is the best and most insightful travel guide I have found, and it is all you will need to enjoy a great trip to Scotland. For the first timer, if you decide you want a professional to plan your trip, Allan's rates are very reasonable and he will fulfill all your requirements.

Perfect tool November 6, 2009
Dennis M. Reale
I am writing this to express my extreme satisfaction with "Golf in Scotland" by Allan Ferguson. I purchased the first edition before I went on a trip to Scotland in May of 2008 and I found out that I overpaid severly for many of the costs of my trip. Allan provides all of the tools in great detail that anyone will need to plan their own golf trip to Scotland for much less than any tour operator would charge. I am currently planning another trip to Scotland in 2010 and am using the book as my guide. I have recently ordered the new version of "Gold in Scotland" as well. The book gives detailed reviews of Courses, Lodging, Rental car information, and the best ways to get to Scotland via air. Some information in here is truely priceless. Highly recommended for anyone planning to make this trip.

Feguson's book on golf in Scotland is a must buy/read for those travelling to Scotland for golf. Those of you that think the Old Course and Turnberry are the only reasons to visit Scotland, this book provides a valuable insight.
