It is not marketing hype when we say that this is truly one of the notable historic golf courses in the world; the Open Championship was first played over the Prestwick Old Course in 1860 and was last played here in 1925. The British Amateur Championship has been played here eleven times, most recently in 2001 (Michael Hoey of Northern Ireland).

Visitors are welcome with a valid handicap certificate on all weekdays, morning and afternoon. During the summer on Sundays, limited morning and afternoon tee-times are available.
