Machrihanish Golf Club, established in 1876, is one of Scotland's most remote and spectacular courses. Located on the Kintyre peninsula, the course features one of golf's most famous opening holes that drives across the beach. Designed by Old Tom Morris, the course has remained largely unchanged, offering authentic links golf in a wild and beautiful setting. The course is known for its natural terrain, blind shots, and dramatic coastal views.

Signature Holes

The 1st hole, "Battery," is legendary - the drive must carry across Machrihanish Bay beach, one of golf's great opening shots. The 5th "Long Hole" is a challenging par 5. The 13th "Grey Mare's Tail" requires precision. Several holes offer spectacular views across to Islay and Jura. The course features many blind shots typical of Victorian golf design.
