Major renovation for Carnoustie clubhouse

The Carnoustie golf course in Scotland which is planning a major renovation of it’s clubhouse in time for the 2018 British Open.

Carnoustie Golf Links in Scotland, hailed as the most challenging course on the British Open rota, has been given the go-ahead for a major redevelopment of its golf centre, with works due to be completed in time for The Open Championship in 2018.
The planned enhancements will see the current club building receive a complete renovation with a focus on creating modern, open spaces for dining and relaxing after a round, said Pat Sawers, the chairman of the Carnoustie Golf Links management committee.
“The planning permission has come through at an exciting time for us as we’ll be able to showcase the completed developments to a global audience during The Open Championship in 2018,” Sawers said.
“The new facilities will offer twenty first century style and convenience to all of our visitors throughout the year, whether they’re world class professionals from across the globe, or locals looking for a place to relax and enjoy the stunning scenery.”
The star feature of the project will be full length windows that will be installed throughout the upper floor of the building. This viewing gallery will reveal never-before-seen panoramas of the notoriously challenging closing holes of the links course, and will be accessible to all who visit the golf centre.
As well as extensive renovations to the club building, cutting-edge golf simulator bays will be installed at the driving range to provide players with the latest technology to use during their warm-up and practice routines.
