The Eden Course, St. Andrews, Scotland

We played the Eden Course at St. Andrews on a glorious Saturday morning in July. We had one of the very first tee times, and we pretty much had the course to ourselves. My golf was a little bit suspect, as evidenced by the wayward drive on #2 that ended up on the Old Course! But the day was just too nice to care. My first chance for birdie came on #4, a 251-yard par 4 that I drove, but then proceeded to 3-putt for par! This hole runs right next to the Eden Estuary, and is a lovely view. The next hole is also a real charmer, a short par-3 nestled amongst the sandhills; very picturesque!

All in all just a lovely course at a very reasonable price. If you come to St. Andrews to play the Old Course, and you also just want to have some fun on a very nice course, the Eden Course is for you!
