Ballantrae, a very small town in Scotland is best known as the traditional gathering place for the Scottish clan. Golf began in Scotland. Thousands of miles from Scotland, Pelham, Alabama’s Ballantrae community evoked images of the Old World through its architecture when it was designed and its golf course recalled the Scottish heritage of the game of golf. Set in spectacular surroundings, with every dogleg hole presenting a fresh set of challenges, as of 2010, the Ballantrae Golf Course had become of the most popular public courses in the Shelby County area.
