Founded in 1858 and relocated to Moncreiffe Island in 1897, King James VI is one of only two inland island golf courses believed to exist globally, sitting in the River Tay within walking distance of Perth city centre. Designed by the legendary Old Tom Morris, the 18-hole course offers a fair challenge across all levels, supported by a clubhouse, shop, and strong record of golfing firsts including the first Scottish inter-club match.
