About Machrihanish Dunes Golf Club & Resort

Machrihanish Dunes sits quietly at the edge of Scotland, where the golf feels like stepping back into the game’s origins. The course is a true masterpiece of natural design, carved directly through protected dunes & ranked among the UK’s top courses.

When the round ends, the village offers warmth & comfort in classic Scottish style. Stay steps from the famous opening hole of Machrihanish golf club at the characterful Ugadale Hotel, unwind in a cottage near the beach, or enjoy a livelier experience at the Royal Hotel in Campbeltown.

Evenings bring fine local food, a good dram by the fire, or quiet walks along the shore. Machrihanish Dunes is more than a golf break, it’s how golf was meant to be enjoyed & stays with you long after you’ve left.

Machrihanish Dunes is a true masterpiece of natural design, carved directly through protected dunes and ranked among the UK’s top courses. It’s golf at its most authentic, no manufactured perfection, just wind, natural dunes, and creative shot making. The fairways twist through wild contours, the greens flow with the landscape, and every shot demands imagination. It’s the kind of course that humbles you and thrills you in equal measure: unforgettable, untamed, and completely exhilarating.
