The picturesque town of Prestwick lies south of Glasglow and is Scotland’s oldest baronial burgh. It’s known for its international airport, where Elvis Presley touched down on March 3, 1960, for a quick stopover after serving in Germany. Another famous figure, Robert the Bruce, King of Scots, once drank the water from what is now known as Bruce’s Well. Keen golfers may already know that the first British Golf Open Championship was held at Prestwick Golf Club in 1860. Other challenging golf courses include Prestwick St Nicholas Golf Club and Prestwick St Cuthbert Golf Club. History buffs can visit St Nicholas Church And Graveyard, and photographers can get great shots at Prestwick Airport Spotter’s Mound. Prestwick Beach is a fine spot for the whole family.
