March 5, 2017: The British Golf Museum has entered the top twenty of Visitor Attractions in Scotland.
2016 saw a big increase in visitors to the Museum thanks to the new Café at the Museum, remodelled galleries and an improved shopping experience.
Temporary exhibitions, such as ‘Monumental Changes’, which focused on the architectural development of the Royal and Ancient Golf Clubhouse, all led to the Museum attracting over 200,000 visitors through its doors.
