Close by is the equally demanding Carnegie Club links in the shadow of Skibo Castle, famous as the venue for Madonna’s wedding. Not to mention glorious Nairn, founded in 1887, considered by many to be one of the best courses in Scotland and lately awarded number nine in the definitive list of the top-100 Courses in Scotland 2011. Then there is Dufftown, with its famous 10th, named as one of Britain’s most extraordinary holes. From the back tees it’s a 462-yard par-4 with a drop of 339ft feet to the green below. It is known as the Glenfiddich, because afterwards, you’re going to need one.
The list is endless: Grantown-on-Spey; Kingussie; Carrbridge; Craggan; Moray and Castle Stuart. The choice can be somewhat daunting, and that’s just deciding on where to play. Then of course, there’s where to stay, what to eat and what to see. A trip to Scotland offers so many wonderful opportunities that it can often pay dividends to call upon the services of an expert.
