Kingsbarns Golf Links
Kingsbarns, Scotland • Public
Overview
Just down the coastline from the links at St. Andrews, Kingsbarns looks absolutely natural in its links setting. It’s a tribute to owner Art Dunkley and architect Kyle Phillips and Mark Parsinen (all Californians) who are responsible for what once was a lifeless farm field transformed into a magnificent course that fools even the most discerning eye. The routing is ingenious, crescent-shape along the Fife coast, with holes on three separate levels (130 feet of elevation change in all) to provide ocean views from every fairway. Six holes play right on the shoreline, and every hole offers genuine alternate angles of attack.
