Hawkswood House has 5 pitching mats, 6 holes and two bunkers, providing a wide range of lies and distances.

Getting there

Note: Because public transport to the retreat is not straightforward, car hire or pre‑booked taxi transfer from the airport/station is highly recommended for convenience.

By Car

From Edinburgh Airport: Head north from Edinburgh Airport, then take M90 / A90 toward Fife/St Andrews. Continue toward St Andrews / Fife and follow signage to Hawkswood Country Estate / KY15 5LL. Estimated drive: ~ 42 miles, ~ 50 min under normal traffic.

From Glasgow Airport: Take M8 toward Edinburgh direction, then join M90 / A90 toward Fife/St Andrews. Proceed toward Hawkswood Country Estate / KY15 5LL via Fife roads. Drive time depends on traffic, but typically around 1 h 30 min (may be longer at peak).

By Train + Bus/Taxi (Public Transport)

Because Hawkswood Country Estate is rural and not directly on a mainline, the nearest railway stations are Cupar and Leuchars.

From Edinburgh Airport: Take airport tram/bus to city (or rail hub), then train to Cupar or Leuchars. From Cupar or Leuchars, need to get a taxi to Hawkswood Country Estate. Taxi services are recommended (especially outside frequent bus times). From a nearby town (e.g. St Andrews) you could first get to St Andrews then take a bus or taxi to Hawkswood Country Estate. Important note: Hawkswood Country Estate itself does not sit on a main bus route, so public transport will involve at least one taxi or car‑hire leg.
