 Powfoot- The South Seniors Open

 

    Frequent Traveller Neish Chisholm has got himself a good deal in Annan. Neish writes:   
" The Hotel offering 2 nights DBB single for £80 is The Queensbury Arms in Annan, www.queensburyarms.co.uk.
I have asked them if it is ok to pass their details onto the SSGS for other possible customers for 27-28/4/11, they ofcourse said yes please.
Perhaps you can put this on our web site for the benefit of all those who may be looking for accommodation."
 
Also close by is the Powfoot Golf Hotel and a number of qiality B & Bs on the nearby georgian terrace in Cummertrees.

  Some local eateries listed on the ThomsonsLocal pages

 

 Monifieth

For eating out the Blue Marlin is a must for fans of good seafood. The Thai Restaurant is excellent and the Thai beer goes down really well with the spicy fare.

Panmure Hotel, next to the first tee, is a decent stop with a good and reasonable priced food menu.

Jolly's Hotel in Broughty Ferry is only minutes away. Derek, your host, is an avid golfer and has offered us B & B facilities single rooms at £40 and twins for £60 (normally £49 and £65) subject to availability. When booking mention Scottish Seniors reference Keith Howie.

Lossiemouth

Nairn  accommodation please click here to see club suggestions.

Eating- good variety. The Aurora is an italian restaurant within a small hotel and provides consistently good pasta. The Al Raj Tandoori in Harbour Street is a stop for curry enthusiasts. The Classroom in Cawdor Street is very popular and offers good variety.

Pubs etc. The Caledonian is a large howf on the High Street. Plenty of room to spread out and a good selection of ales. The Shore Inn is a decent harbourside pub with many tales from the sea.

 Kilmacolm

 

Kilmacolm was until a few years ago a "dry" village and the golf club was one of the main social centres. It remains well attended with a good atmosphere and inclusive members. Food and beverage are great quality and value.

There are now a few local pubs in competition with those in nearby Bridge of Weir.

Eating out: WIndyhill is a highly rated restaurant offering fine food at reasonable cost.

Dunfermline

Two fine quality hotels within walking distance of the historic clubhouse. Keavil House is a Best Western Hotel with lovely surounds and an excellent Leisure Centre. Food is renowned. Pitfirrane Hotel is also excellent and will offer attractive deals. The pub within the hotel is the "local" for Crossford Village. The patrons are friendly and make for a lively atmosphere

Eating out:  Plenty of variety in the town and the two local villags of Crossford and Cairneyhill.
