Ladybank Golf Club is situated amidst heather, pines, and silver birch trees that provide a valuable habitat for a diverse range of flora and fauna. Red squirrels, which are in decline in the UK, can be seen throughout the woodlands both on and around the course. Ladybank was established as a six-hole course in 1879 by Old Tom Morris himself. It expanded to a nine-hole course in 1910 and to 18 holes in 1958. Since then, the layout has been consistently celebrated as a qualifying round for the British Open due to its challenging but fair layout. The golf course features long, narrow fairways lined with trees and well-manicured greens. Ladybank Golf Club's par-4 ninth hole is the course's signature. It is a demanding right to left dogleg with a tree guarding the corner and a two-tiered green.
