Golf Course Selection

Machrihanish Dunes (x 2) - Designed by David McLay Kidd, who is responsible for the internationally acclaimed Bandon Dunes in Oregon, this breathtaking links has been built on a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). It is set hard against the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, and follows the natural terrain, with 6 tees and 5 greens sitting on the ocean's edge.
Machrihanish - Tom Morris laid out the course in 1876. A very hospitable club to visitors. The unique quality of the turf has been much admired - sandy but yet rich and springy. The greens are large and sculptured and each hole is unique enough to be remembered long after you round, particularly the 1st.
Machrie - At 6250 yards long, the Machrie course has spectacular views and can be challenging to even the most experienced of golfers. It has been described as a subtle beast with a sense of humour. In the natural sand dunes lurk its wicked teeth, and it has an unpredictable temperament sometimes provoked by winds of varied strengths and direction.

Accommodation Selection
