East Kilbride Golf Club

East Renfrewshire Golf Club

Course Description 

Ranked 1st in Renfrewshire annually by “Top 100 Golf Courses”

The course has all the features one associates with a Braid designed course with elevated tees, undulating fairways and plateau greens. Although initially without trees, the course now features a variety of trees lining many of the fairways.

At 6107 yards this is undoubtedly a course where thought and care are required on every shot. Given the elevated course setting, the strength of the wind can change the club selection or choice of shot dramatically.

Hilton Park Golf Club

Course Description 

The Hilton course, the first of the two designed by James Braid, opened in 1927. The great architect/champion’s original design was futuristic almost to a fault. It included the world’s only par 6 (the old 5th hole) at something around 600 yards, according to old records, but members found the layout just a little too daunting. Braid returned and redesigned the course with the result you see today.
At 6233 yards (par 70 for men and 73 for ladies) today’s Hilton is the longer of our club’s two beautiful courses although it is slightly more forgiving of wayward tee shots than the Allander. The Hilton course affords spectacular, sweeping views of Glasgow, the Clyde and beyond to the south, and the Campsie Fells and the start of the Highlands to the east and north.
The Hilton’s three opening holes are among the best on the course and the four short holes are especially inviting with the 17th, our signature hole, offering a stunning downhill par 3 with a dramatic drop. A word of warning: legend has it that there is an unexploded WW2 shell under the 1st green on the Hilton. Just thought we’d mention it.

Hollandbush Golf Course

Innellan Golf Club

Course Description 

9 holes course with great views

Inveraray Golf Club

Inverclyde National Golf Training Centre

Islay Golf Club

Course Description 

The- course was originally laid out by Willie Campbell who believed it was “the best ground for a golf course that I have ever had the pleasure of viewing”.
Apart from a few changes made in the late 1970’s by Donald Steel, the course remains very much the same as when Willie Campbell first constructed it all these years ago. Thus it is a traditional links course and, when playing, one gets the feeling of going back in time to the days of Harry Vardon and John Taylor. Indeed the Machrie’s main claim to fame is its own Open Championship of 1901 which included the “Great Triumvirate” of Harry Vardon, John Henry Taylor and James Braid. It had the highest price of any Open competition at that time of £100.00!

Isle of Gigha Golf Club

Course Description 

Gigha’s lovely little 9-hole golf course offers you the most wonderful panoramic views of the island and mainland.

The course has three par 3’s and some testing par 4’s. You had better have your driving in good trim when playing the Gigha course, as the rough can be very unforgiving! Those of a weak disposition should take real care when teeing off the 4th medal, as it can be very intimidating.

Golf was introduced on Gigha in the late 1800s and continued to be played at the Leim course until around 1925. There followed a 60- year gap until 1986, when keen local golfers Alastair “Plumber” Brown and gamekeeper John Wright designed and built a 9-hole course at Tarbert Farm.

In 1988, estate plans were laid to form a golf course at Drumeonbeg Farm and Alastair and John were again responsible for the lay- out and creation of the new course.

The first ball was driven off only two months after work started.

Course Description 

Set in an area of outstanding natural beauty on the hill above Kames, the golf course offers truly panoramic views across the water to the Island of Bute.

During the round there are other stunning aspects across Loch Fyne to the Mull of Kintyre, and south to the Ayrshire coast past Arran. The golf course has nine very intriguing holes, all quite different in design, requiring careful choice of both club and shot.

Although there are no bunkers or traps, there are burns, patches of heather and gorse, and blind shots on two holes to keep everyone on their toes! There are plenty of opportunities to enjoy the wildlife as the deer and numerous birds of prey can often be seen, and heard.

The surrounding area has a wide choice of all types of accommodation, places to eat and drink, and many places of interest.

Lochwinnoch Gold Course

Machrihanish Golf Club

Course Description 

To provide a varied test for the competent golfer, the layout is not just a predictable nine out, and nine back. Set in the Machrihanish Dunes, the classic links holes, apart from the 1st, are the 5th, another par four with its fairway like an elephant’s graveyard, the 10th, a clever dogleg par five and the 15th, a “one shotter” with real difficulty if the elusive green is missed from the tee.
Each hole flows almost seamlessly from the previous, making this course fairly unique as a natural links course.
