Durness Highlands and Islands

Course Details

Interesting, testing course in idyllic surroundings. The course has 9 greens, but the construction of 18 tees means variety and a very different challenge over the closing holes. Despite being fairly short at 5,555 yards, the course asks questions of all levels of golfer with several strategically placed natural hazards and other cleverly man made ones.

The Par 5's, 6th and 15th, are played around Loch Lanlish, although the brave, big hitters can go for the small green with their second shot but any miss-hit shots would find a watery grave. This hole in particular was praised by Ronan Rafferty on his visit to the course.

The 9th and 18th which are played across a deep gulley, into which flows the Atlantic when the tide is in, can already claim TV fame as Peter Alliss visited the course in 1996 to record for the series 'Travels with Alliss'. The hole has also appeared on an American Millennium calendar.

All in all, a brilliant little course, where everyone is welcome and should enjoy stress free golf at a realistic price.
