Carnoustie is a town and former police burgh in the council area of Angus, Scotland. It is situated at the mouth of the Barry Burn on the east coast of Scotland. In the 2001 census, Carnoustie had a population of 10,561, making it the fourth largest town in Angus.

The town was founded in the late 18th century, and grew rapidly throughout the 19th century due to the expansion of the local textile industry. It was popular as a tourist resort from the early Victorian era up to the latter half of the 20th century, due to its seaside location. It is best known for its associations with golf.

Carnoustie can be considered a dormitory town for its closest city, Dundee, which is 11 miles (18 km) to the west. It is served by Carnoustie railway station, and less so by Golf Street railway station. Its nearest major road is the A92.

    @Delbhoy9 @brendansemple : might be back in the next 8 weeks. A game at Bonnyton or North Berwick would be good. Unless you want Carnoustie?
