I’m pitching a trip to Scotland to my golf group for end of summer 2025 and trying to figure out what $ number to estimate. From what I’ve looked up the price range is all over the place from $4k-12k. For those that have gone, what’s a reasonable amount for golf and lodging or how much did it cost for your trip? Not including flight and food. I’m thinking a 7 day trip with 5 days of golf.

Yeah the variability can be significant. Old course is around $330/rd, kings barn will cost you $1000 to play, Carnoustie is around $250. Crail will be around $80. But you’ll want to buy gear at every course so you could easily spend another $150-400 per course on goods. Transport once there can run the gamut depending on how much you need them, from EDI to St Andrews is £140 each way, taxis to the other courses can be anywhere from $30-150 depending how far out your going. Hotels during the summer should run $300+ per night plus food/drink probably another $200 per day.

Thanks, this is helpful. It sounds like I can use ~$1k per day as a starting point and it’ll vary based on where we play/what we end up doing outside of golf.

Something like $7-8k for trip coming up this summer, including 4 rounds of golf (incl old course, carnoustie, kingsbarn), 5 nights at old course hotel, all transport to/from airport and all golf. Planned through one of those tour/concierge companies, so probably on the more expensive side.

Just wanted to come back here and say I just got back from my trip and it was incredible! Well worth the price to have all the tee times and transport taken care of. Feel free to DM me if you want to hear anymore.

Sounds about right, probably on the high end but still that’s how I would think about it as well.
