Strathtyrum is Scotland's most exclusive golf retreat. Since 1782, the house and the estate has been in the Cheape family. Were it not for James Cheape, who purchased the links in 1821, rescuing it from both the ravages of the rabbits and the incompetence of the town council, it is likely the world would have been deprived of arguably the greatest golf course of all time - the Old Course. |
