Glenbervie Golf Club
Glenbervie has earned its place in Scottish golf history by hosting some of the UK’s most prestigious tournaments and welcoming many of the world’s top players. Designed by the legendary James Braid, the course makes full use of the parkland’s natural beauty, contours, and native hazards. Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Ochil Hills, Braid created an elite golfing experience that continues to challenge and inspire professionals and amateurs more than 80 years on. Few inland courses anywhere in the world offer such a remarkable setting.
