About this course

Lynedoch sits within the Murrayshall Country Estate near Scone in Perth and Kinross, part of Scotland's central lowlands where the landscape transitions from the Highlands to the fertile plains of the Tay Valley. Designed by Hamilton J. Stutt, the course occupies parkland terrain characterized by mature woodland, rolling ground, and the estate's agricultural heritage. The routing takes advantage of natural elevation changes and tree-lined corridors that define individual holes while offering glimpses of the surrounding Perthshire countryside. The course serves as a complement to Murrayshall's older Murrayshall course, providing estate guests and members with an alternative parkland experience. Stutt's design works within the property's existing topography and vegetation, creating a layout that balances accessibility with strategic interest. The holes move through varied terrain, with some playing along higher ground and others descending into lower-lying areas where the estate's natural drainage patterns influence play. Murrayshall Country Estate operates as a hotel and golf destination, drawing visitors to the Perthshire region who combine golf with touring the nearby historic sites of Scone Palace and Perth. The clubhouse facilities serve both resort guests and local members, with dining and accommodation integrated into the estate's hospitality offerings. The Lynedoch course contributes to the property's appeal as a multi-course venue in an area known for its concentration of parkland and heathland layouts.

Getting there

The journey to Murrayshall Country Estate & Golf Club begins at Edinburgh Airport (EDI), roughly an hour's drive north through the fertile heart of Perthshire. The route follows the M90 across the Firth of Forth, then climbs gently into rolling farmland before peeling off toward the historic village of Scone, where the estate sits just two miles north of Perth. The final approach trades motorway for quiet country lanes, the landscape softening into wooded parkland and manicured hedgerows, until the handsome Georgian manor house emerges at the end of a sweeping tree-lined drive - a refined arrival befitting one of Scotland's most gracious country house retreats.
