Group booking note
The Machrihanish links (1876) is one of the great undiscovered Scottish courses; the Atlantic opening tee shot is among the best in the world. Book a minimum of four nights — the journey time makes a three-day trip feel rushed. Machrihanish Dunes is the modern links next door, designed to be even harder to read.
Where to stay
Base yourself in Campbeltown
The Ugadale Hotel sits right beside the Machrihanish links and its self-catering cottages are built for golf groups — the convenient base for the two Machrihanish courses, which share the same stretch of dunes. Campbeltown itself, six miles away, has hotels and self-catering and more to do in the evenings (it has its own distilleries, Springbank among them). Whichever you pick, book four nights: the drive down the Kintyre peninsula, or the LoganAir hop from Glasgow, makes a three-day trip feel rushed.
