Golf in the Scottish Highlands
The beautifully rugged landscapes of Scotland's Highlands and islands with their mountains, lochs and seaways offer the ultimate escape – one of the last corners of Europe where you can discover genuine solitude.
Legend and tradition run deep in the Highlands too, so it comes as no surprise that this wild, picturesque and endlessly charming corner of Scotland is also home to some of its best and most historic golf courses.
Royal Dornoch leads the way in the Scottish Highlands, with records showing that golf was played here as far back as 1616, and is a must-play course for any golf purist exploring Scotland's most northerly frontier.
There are countless other historic layouts to enjoy as well, as well as more modern courses such as Castle Stuart Links at Cabot Highlands, which opened for play in 2009 and was immediately deemed suitable to host The Scottish Open on The European Tour.
Whether you’re admiring the Trossachs or teeing off along the spectacular coastline, a golf tour through the Scottish Highlands is an unforgettable experience.

Spey Valley Championship Course
Traditional links course designed by James Braid and is considered to be one of his finest pieces of work with the likes of Tom Watson & Peter Thomson giving praise to the design.
This classic Highland Links serves up a gentle opening with short holes facing different directions requiring the visiting golfer to negotiate the prevailing winds, and considering the course's exposed position, it is often more than a gentle breeze.

"The course at Spey Valley is certainly championship standard measuring over 7100 yards from the back tees. The Dave Thomas layout is a challenge for mixed handicaps. It's a stunning course with the purple heather dotted around, and the variety of room types and styles mean there is something to suit everyone."
