After winning the morning foursomes 2-0 they were in a strong position, but Eisenhower Trophy winners Gavin Dear and Wallace Booth both losing, it came down to Michael Stewart, Paul O’Hara and Ross Kellett, pictured left, to clinch the points for a 5-2 victory.
O’Hara holed the winning putt on 17 to beat Luke Goddard 2 and 1 in a high quality encounter, then Kellett sealed things by closing out his match to beat Tommy Fleetwood by one hole – sparking Scottish celebrations around the 18th.
For a small nation, it is a pretty big achievement,” said Kellett. “Winning the world title last year was great but to finish it off with a European win just caps it off.
"I had some tough matches and did well, so I am proud of that, but the whole team were really good."
O’Hara, pictured left, was also delighted to have had the chance to win the championships for Scotland.
“I knew the situation so I lagged my first putt to two feet,” he said. “I have holed putts like that hundreds of times in practice, but you still have a wee bit of doubt so it was great to hole it and it is unbelievable to be European Champions.
“At the start of the week it was not looking that good because we just scraped into the strokeplay stages, but we were confident we were good players and could come through – the last three days the guys have played really well.
“We knew England would be determined to come back this afternoon, they were coming out and trying to win every game so for us to stick in there and focus on each shot at a time was amazing.
“It was a really good match against Luke, I am glad I just hung on at the end and pulled it off.
“It has been amazing, everyone enjoys the course, greens are really good, it has been a really well run tournament and we cannot ask for much more.”
England captain Colin Edwards was proud of his team. “Disappointment in the final, but still a good week for us and Scotland played really well to deserve their win,” he said.
“It was an exceptional week for the boys and a lot of them have made the Walker Cup selectors look at them again. I am sure there will be a lot of England players in the team and they will do well in September.
“Conwy has been a brilliant place for it, a good test of golf and the course has played up to expectations.”
Italy beat Norway to clinch the bronze medal, Amateur Champion Matteo Manassero finishing off a superb week personally with another win.
France were fifth after beating Sweden 5-2 while Finland secured seventh place with a 3-2 win over Germany.
