This review is from: The Golf Widow Travels Scotland: Getting Your Dream Vacation in Scotland with or without a Golfer in Tow (Paperback)

The Golf Widow Travels Scotland is a guide to enjoying one's travel experience in Scotland, especially if one is an avid golfer or in the company of a golfer. From dealing with unwieldy luggage to must-see sites across the whole of Scotland to hours and directions for out-of-the-way places and much more, The Golf Widow Travels Scotland offers a homestyle perspective from a woman with 35 years of solo travel experience. Much more personal than an ordinary travel guide, The Golf Widow Travels Scotland is written with humor, flair, and uncanny insight into how to truly spend quality time in another nation.
