AN East Renfrewshire business has become the first golf facility to be given five-star status in the area.
Mearns Castle Golf Academy, in Newton Mearns, was given the five stars from VisitScotland’s Quality Assurance (QA) Scheme in recognition of its “exceptional standards”.
In the last five years, the business has taken steps to improve its visitor experience and in 2018, it invested in a new gaming system called Toptracer for the driving range.
A family-friendly golf membership has been introduced, which has helped the centre become a community golf hub.
Russell Gary, operations manager at Mearns Castle Golf Academy, said he was delighted.
He said: “We are thrilled this work has been acknowledged with a Five Star VisitScotland award.”
