Beith Golf Club

Formed in 1896 and moved to its Threepwood Road site in the Garnock Valley in 1907, this hilly parkland course was extended from nine to 18 holes in the 1990s and offers spectacular views over the Clyde coast, the Hills of Arran and Ailsa Craig. The club faced closure in 2017 amid falling membership but continues to operate, welcoming visitors to its high, exposed course only 15 minutes from Glasgow Airport.
