Highland courses high on the Leaderboard






THREE of the most prestigious courses in the Highlands have been rated among the 13 best venues to play in Scotland by #GolfWorld magazine.

#RoyalDornochClub is placed 5th, The Nairn Club 12th, and #CastleStuartLinks 13th in the magazine’s list of 100 leading Scottish courses.

All three are part of the Highland Golf Links (HGL) partnership which promotes Play and Stay destination breaks in the area.

The Golf World list was drawn up by a 19-strong panel of its readers which looked at factors including strategic merit, presentation, memorable holes, playability, and visual appeal in making their decisions.

The only other Highland course to feature in the list's top 30 was #SkiboCastle, placed 10th.

Fraser Cromarty, chairman of HGL and CEO at The Nairn Golf Club, said: ‘The three courses are accessible for visitors and can be played over the course of a weekend, making golfing breaks in this part of the world easy to manage and very rewarding.’

The three HGL courses will host the 54-hole Tomatin Single Malt Pro-Am, to be held on September 28-30 this year.
