The Machrie – Links Course
Isle of Islay, Scotland, United Kingdom
The Machrie is an iconic Scottish championship links stretching to over 7000 yards from the back tees from next season. An original Willie Campbell design dating back to 1891, it is now a masterpiece redesigned by DJ Russell and reopened in 2018. Among many recent accolades, it ranks inside the top 50 UK&I and top 20 in Scotland.
The perfect links terrain is set on unique dunelands bordering on the magnificent Laggan Bay in Islay.
Exceptionally maintained with stunning Hebridean views of ocean, the peaks of Beinn Bheigeir and the Paps of Jura, it will captivate all levels of golfer and will test every aspect of the game.
The course offers four sets of tees suitable for all handicaps, and offers generous fairways. But well-placed tee shots are needed to reward players with a chance to attack the pin placements.
The inspired run offs, contoured greens and revetted bunkers provide an array of shot selections around the greens which will let the imagination run wild.
D.J. Russell’s redesign has now fully matured into one of the greatest of Scottish links – the original and still the best setting for a game of ‘gowf’.
The course is complemented by a brand new Wee Course and comprehensive practice facilities for all aspects of your game, while the shop provides the branded clothing befitting a course such as this.
