- 2 rounds at Dundonald Links
Dundonald Links is located at the very heart of Ayrshire’s golf coast, effortlessly combining heritage & tradition with contemporary surroundings as well as luxurious finishing touches.
Following the £25m development, this Scottish Gem is fast becoming one of the most sought-after golf resorts in Scotland. Designed by Kyle Phillips, Dundonald Links has already hosted numerous tournaments most recently the Freed Group Women’s Scottish Open in 2023 and The Open Final Qualifying in 2023 and will continue to stage this event until 2026. In the past Dundonald Links has also been home to the Aberdeen Asset Management Ladies Scottish Open, the Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open and the Trust Golf Women's Scottish Open.
Like many of his other projects, think The Grove, Yas Links and the aforementioned Kingsbarns, Phillips’ Dundonald Links has been quickly recognised by many as one of the best “new builds” in world golf and since its unveiling in 2005, it’s only matured, getting even better along the way, recognition of which came with the fact that this marvellous course hosted the Scottish Open in 2017.

Phillips' mandate was to create a championship links course that would reflect the traditional character of seaside golf on Scotland's west coast; but one that would also benefit from the newest construction techniques.
The new links has already matured well, and is attracting plaudits from far and wide with many calling it one of the best in Ayrshire. A welcome addition to the already impressive repertoire on the west coast – Royal Troon is just 10 minutes down the road – Dundonald Links is a majestic links that thoroughly deserves its place inside the UK's top 100. Dundonald’s most recent coup came with hosting the 2017 Scottish Open which was won by Spain's Rafael Cabrera-Bello.
The Dundonald experience begins at the main gates where, like Loch Lomond, you’re greeted by security who in all likelihood know exactly who are. This treatment continues throughout and the “member for a day” experience certainly makes everything more enjoyable.
The course itself lies between the impressive trio of Kilmarnock Barassie, Glasgow Gailes and Western Gailes so it is clear that Dundonald lies on hallowed golfing turf and while in its formative years, drainage was a problem during the wetter months, no such problems exist today. This is pure, firm and fast links golf in its finest form.
The total yardage can range from 5,560 yards from the Reds to a challenging 7,100 yards from the Blacks. One thinks the course might be stretched further when the Scottish Open comes to town but nonetheless it can offer an enjoyable and testing challenge to a great array of golfers.
Signature Hole – No. 12: Par 4, 350 yards (Black Tees)
While some would suggest the par 3 11th at Dundonald is the course’s signature hole due its resemblance to the famous Postage Stamp at Royal Troon, it’s not quite the real deal. The short par 4 12th though, is a cracker.
Most players won’t need much more than a long iron for their drive here as placement, rather than power, is paramount due to the hog’s back fairway which will dispel all but the truest of tee shots. The fairway is at a subtle angle to the tee and once safely in play, the approach is played to a well guarded green that may seem closer than it really is due to some dramatic runoffs in front of the green.
With the Firth of Clyde and the distant Isle of Arran acting as the backdrop to this strategic and tricky little hole, this is an amazing spot on the course.

Everything was brilliant throughout the weekend, however we got informed when we arrived that the booking was for Mon, Tues, and Wed instead of our actual dates. We therefore had a delay as they had to move rooms around and 2 people had to move rooms after the first night. Dundonald were great with the situation but flagging the issue we encounted.

The on site accommodation had no way of ventilating the room short of leaving the patio doors open all night. This made it quite uncomfortable. Unusual to find a room with such design limitations.

Great new style links. Perhaps a solution needed about the crows. Our group lost 6/8 good drives to crows swooping off with the balls. Funny once or twice but ….

Hard because of rain and wind but course in good condition despite 2 days of heavy rain. The course is great but not memorable, each tee is the same, low level but the course with the stadium design gives some challenging tee shots to shape if you are going for distance. Mac cheese pay at the Bothy was great

Bradley

We was very lucky with the weather which made the course play easier but still a good challenge and in excellent condition.
Colin

At this time of the year the course was average due to the rough dyeing off and easier to find your ball, although in the summer months I would expect the course to be much harder if you hit anything wayward. Overall great course. Killer bunkers located every where.

Enjoyed the golf and facilities but this is very much a corporate experience and whilst it was very well organised we felt it lacked the history and feel of some other tracks.

Super good new American style links course. Very similar to The Grove in Watford, but just as a links course. Nice wide fairways, and incredible conditioning. This is a course that any golfer of any ability can play. Nice relaxed atmosphere, nothing stuffy or pretentious.

A very tough course with facilities undergoing extensive development including new clubhouse and lodges. The course itself was maintained to a very high standard. Much more penal rough than at Prestwick and in a prevailing wind, much longer too. Bogeys were welcome, all too often tricky greens made double bogeys far too frequent. When the complex is competed this will undoubtedly become a signature course in the region with accommodation to match. I suspect it will price itself out of the range for many golf tours and will, like Turnberry become a haven for the wealthy tourist. So recommendation - play it now whilst you can!

Good course, some spectacular holes, other were nothing special, condition of the course was not as expected, club house is like a prefab joint, good food though!

A very good golf course. Quite hard in places, but generally a good test of accurate golf. They also made us welcome, and we had a good day.
Mark

Another top class course, we loved it. Condition and layout fabulous especially considering right next door to Kilmarnock Barassie. We played twice, first day cold and windy and second day calm and showery....wow how different the same course can play in two differing conditions. Pro shop extremely helpful and did us a fantastic deal to play second time round. The clubhouse is not much more than a shed/container really but still welcoming and food in bar area lovely and decent price. Even given towels to shower after our golf on day 2, now that’s what I call service, well done Dundonald.
