Our Driving Range in

St Andrews

Our 270-yard driving range is exclusively for guests of Hawkswood Country Estate. The driving range can be used to practice your golf swing. This can either be for preparation before a game, or as a recreational activity. It can also be used if you simply don’t have enough time for a full game of golf. All guests of Hawkswood Country Estate can use the driving range. St Andrews’ golf courses are the ideal place to show your skills once you have worked on your swing.
