About Gairloch Golf Club

Nestled on the golden shores of Gairloch Beach, Gairloch Golf Club is a hidden gem of the Scottish Highlands, offering a truly unique golfing experience since 1898. This historic 9-hole seaside links course, designed by the visionary Captain Burgess, is a testament to ingenuity and perseverance, blending natural coastal beauty with clever design to create a challenging yet rewarding layout.

Framed by sweeping views of Loch Gairloch, the Outer Hebrides, and the dramatic Highland mountains, the course is as much a feast for the eyes as it is a test of skill. Its compact design features two sets of tees for 18 distinct holes, weaving through sandy hillocks and undulating terrain that promise intriguing lies and strategic play. The course’s signature feature, the legendary Leabaidh na Bo Baine, adds a touch of folklore to your round, as you navigate a landscape rich in history and natural charm.

Visitors are warmly welcomed into this friendly members' club, where a relaxed atmosphere meets the thrill of seaside golf. After your round, take a stroll on the adjacent beach or immerse yourself in the surrounding heritage, from ancient Pictish stones to Gaelic poetry. Whether you’re a seasoned golfer or a curious beginner, Gairloch Golf Club offers an unforgettable blend of sport, scenery, and Highland spirit.
