Gairloch, Highland, United Kingdom
Gairloch Golf Club is a 9-hole links course established in 1898, located in Ross-shire on Scotland's northwest coast. The course occupies a striking setting adjacent to a sandy beach, with panoramic views across Loch Gairloch and out toward the islands of Skye, Harris, and Lewis to the west. The Torridon mountains lie to the south, with the remote Letterewe wilderness to the east.
The course provides a balanced challenge suitable for golfers of varying abilities. It offers a rigorous test for low-handicap players while remaining accessible to casual golfers. The layout plays off multiple tees, including Yellow and Red options for competitions.
The club hosts an active program of competitive events throughout the year, including Open Competitions that welcome both members and visitors. Notable annual competitions include a Texas Scramble, the Gents Open playing for the Stevie McIntosh Memorial trophy, and an 18-hole Open Stableford event.
Facilities include the Links Café, which offers home-cooked meals, baked goods, and hot and cold beverages, with views across the course and beach. The club continues to invest in course maintenance and facilities development. Trolleys and club hire are available for visitors.
