Open Championship venue Carnoustie Golf Links has officially opened its state-of-the-art new clubhouse, which will provide a world-class visitor experience to match Carnoustie’s reputation as one of the finest links courses in the world.
The Links House building includes a state-of-the-art training facility, a new pro shop, and a contemporary bar and restaurant that boasts fine views over the golf course and Carnoustie Bay.
Situated next to the first tee of the Championship Course, which will host the Open later this summer, the new facility also features seven high-tech simulators with the choice of 14 different courses to play – including Carnoustie itself – giving golfers the opportunity to warm up in style in a virtual on-course environment.
The building also boasts the Rookery restaurant, which overlooks the first and 18th holes, new changing rooms, and a ‘heritage area’ that provides information on the rich history of Carnoustie Golf Links.
Commenting on the new clubhouse, Carnoustie Golf Links’ chief executive, Michael Wells, said: “We are extremely proud to be able to provide a world-class facility that matches the outstanding golf offering here at Carnoustie.
The new building offers first-class facilities where our local community and visitors from all over the world can enjoy refreshment and relaxation in a beautiful setting, with spectacular vistas across the links and the sea. The opening of Links House ensures that we are now able to offer a five-star experience which rivals the world’s very best golfing venues.”
