Golf today on Royal Dornoch (tbc). You have the opportunity to play the most northerly of the Championship courses of the British Isles. Dornoch is perhaps more than most, a thinking golfers' course where it is not enough simply to keep the ball on the fairway. The greens are generally open in the front, but they are also set on plateaux several feet above the fairway, a feature that Donald Ross took from his home course and used on many of his classic designs.
A very limited supply of golf carts are available for hire. Certain restrictions may apply, please advise your Golf Travel Specialist. Please note strict handicap limits are set and enforced by the club. Men 24 & Ladies 35.

<Day 4 ~ Nairn Golf Club
Play today at Nairn (tbc), a renowned links course and venue of many major tournaments, including the 1993 British Amateur Championship and the 1999 Walker Cup Matches. This traditional links layout makes its way along the shore of the Moray Firth, then returns to the clubhouse through whin and gorse bushes.

<Day 5 ~ Kingsbarns Golf Links
Today play Kingsbarns (tbc). Its historical origins date back to 1793. Its sandy, linksland soils are the basis for this heritage, and produce the fine-bladed fescues which are the cornerstone of fast-and-firm playing surfaces that characterise links golf. Designed by Kyle Phillips and opened anew in 2000, its rebirth has been shared with golfers from near and far with outstanding reviews. The links features spacious rolling fairways, large greens, and exceptional sea views on every hole. A challenging yet enjoyable champion-standard traditional Scottish links course.

Golf Schedule
Castle Stuart
An outstanding addition to the links courses of Scotland. Set along the shores of the Moray Firth to east of Inverness with wonderful views over to the Black Isle, Kessock Bridge and Chanonry Lighthouse. Six holes hug the shoreline while the remaining holes are played over a terraced slope, delivering ever present views out to the rolling seas. A true links course in every sense with revetted natural bunkers and rumpled fairways. A regular host course for the Scottish Open.
Royal Dornoch
The curving bay of the Dornoch Firth and its magnificent white broad beaches are backed by a narrow strip of softly contoured dune land rising in two distinctive levels, providing just enough room for parallel fairways. The ridges, hillocks, dunes and undulating links land have all the characters of the best of links courses, and most of the difficulties. Old Tom Morris was the architect responsible for extending the original 9 holes layout to 18 holes in 1886. He introduced the plateau greens which are the soul of the course, their uniqueness lies in their size and their inverted saucer shapes.
Nairn
A renowned links course and venue of many major tournaments, including the 1993 British Amateur Championship, the 1999 Walker Cup Matches and 2012 Curtis Cup. This traditional links layout makes its way along the shore of the Moray Firth, then returns to the clubhouse through whin and gorse bushes. The course really becomes interesting on the back nine when consecutive par 4s at No. 12, 13 and 14 pose test a player’s power, precision and touch around the greens.
Kingsbarns
Its historical origins date back to 1793. Its sandy, linksland soils are the basis for this heritage, and produce the fine-bladed fescues which are the cornerstone of fast-and-firm playing surfaces that characterise links golf. Designed by Kyle Phillips and opened anew in 2000, its rebirth has been shared with golfers from near and far with outstanding reviews. The links features spacious rolling fairways, large greens, and exceptional sea views on every hole. A challenging yet enjoyable champion-standard traditional Scottish links course.
St Andrews - Old Course
St Andrews - New Course
Several holes at the oldest ‘New’ course in the world have been carved through punitive gorse, so accurate tee shots are required. Set in contrast to the Old Course, this Old Tom Morris design includes undulating fairways and severely sloped greens to put on display a fine test of links golf. The 17th can be a make-or-break par-3 coming home. It measures 229 yards from the back tees, forcing golfers to combine power and precision to find the green in regulation.
