If you like your golf to be played on a dramatic landscape accompanied by incredible views, the Highlands is surely the place for you. From that first moment when you play your opening tee shot right through to your final putt on the 18th green, the natural beauty of this region will captivate you. There’s a diverse selection of courses to enjoy here, but each and every one of them offers full-on, jaw-dropping splendour.
Perhaps the most difficult aspect of organising a golf tour of the Highlands is knowing which courses to play. Needless to say, this will also inevitably lead to you having to omit some incredible venues as well. Perhaps the most impressive course to be found here is Royal Dornoch, a place that has views to impress even the most hard-hearted of individuals. It features regularly in lists of the world’s top courses, and it’s so easy to see why.
Only an hour to the south you’ll find another favourite, Castle Stuart. Conveniently located close to Inverness, it’s hosted several Scottish Opens in the past and has become a firm favourite with visiting golfers from around the world. The spectacular setting and the views across the Moray Firth are enough to make it a must-visit. Just up the road there’s also Nairn, where the sea comes into play on a number of holes and where you have to respect the wind from start to finish.
As well as the dramatic golfing highlights, you’ll find plenty of other reasons to love the Highlands. Must-see locations include Loch Ness and the fabulous Urquhart Castle, the Cairngorms National Park, the historic Battlefield at Culloden and the dramatic Inverness Castle. History and heritage, not to mention stunning landscapes, are all around you in this area.
Just as diverse as the landscape is the selection of accommodation options that you have here. Whether you’re looking for the most elegant hotels or the cosiest B&Bs, you can choose from a very good selection. There are places with dramatic sea views, town centre convenience and several tranquil rural hideaways, so the Highlands really does offer something to suit all tastes.
Organising a golf tour can be something of a shot in the dark, especially if you don’t know the area. It makes sense, therefore, to engage the services of people who have first-hand experience of the courses, the tourist attractions, the accommodation options and the eateries to make your next trip one that will stay in the memory banks for a lifetimes. The team at Platinum Golf know all there is to know about the Highlands, and we can take care of everything on your behalf.
All that’s left for you to do is sit back and look forward to that first exquisite moment when you tee the ball up on the opening hole, eager to experience everything that golf in the Highlands can throw your way. Just call 01382 477552 to find out more. We look forward to hearing from you.
