Characteristics

Prestwick St Nicholas Golf Club offers a deep dive into golf history as the 26th oldest club in the world. Founded in 1851, it counts Old Tom Morris among its founding members. The course moved to its current seaside location in 1892, presenting a classic Scottish links experience. Although modest in length at 6,044 yards (Par 69), the layout demands respect with its gorse-lined fairways, deep bunkers, and undulating greens that require strategic thinking rather than brute force. Its sandy subsoil ensures excellent playing conditions year-round. The clubhouse is uniquely situated right on the shoreline, offering spectacular views across the Firth of Clyde to Ailsa Craig and Arran, providing a scenic setting for post-round relaxation.

Class Links Course

Played on 15.05.2026 with one member.
The weather was dry but very windy, which made the pitch very difficult.
The condition was excellent, the price-performance ratio was perfectly fine, we paid 110 pounds.
Definitely worth it.

Green fee with the best price/performance ratio!

Very friendly reception, who also accepted the (very cheap) green fee that had already been paid and was forfeited due to a flight cancellation, and fantastic weather, unusual for Scotland, made a 5* day of golf with a sea view on all holes possible. A beautiful place!
Objectively, however, in terms of layout, condition, greens, dune vegetation, and restaurant not the standard of the neighboring "big" courses such as Royas Troon, Western Gailes, Turnberry, Dundonald

Beautiful Links

The St. Nicholas Course is a beautiful Seaside Links that is quite challenging to play. On Tuesday the 4-Ball costs £ 200, a bargain for this course ... !!!
