Welcome to Durness Golf Club
If you have been on the North Coast 500, we lie right on this famous route 57 miles north west of Lairg; with the closest main airport south east of us at Inverness.
Designed by three local golf enthusiasts – Lachie Ross, Ian Morrison and Francis Keith – and opened in 1988, Durness Golf Club nestles on Scotland’s north coast and is Britain’s most north westerly golf course on the mainland. We are a 9 hole links, but with a second set of tees that provides a fine 18 hole experience, set against some of the most stunning landscape backdrops you will see in the golfing world.
EXCEEDING EXPECTATIONS
If your idea of finding a golf course involves an adventure, remoteness, turquoise ocean & sandy beaches then Durness GC could well be the golf experience you have been looking for. Recently voted in 2020 by Golf Magazine USA – in its first ever World’s Top 50 / 9 Hole Courses (12th) and in Golf World UK’s Top 100 Courses 2021 in GB and Ireland (65th) – your unforgettable golf journey can now begin.
“The northern delights started at the Durness course, where Penn giggled at an opening hole that played like the first stage of an alpine ascent, with a fairway that might have come with carabiners… the closing par 3 over ocean spray to a green shelved atop black rocks was a stunning finisher, and making two there sent us down the coast from Durness at a gallop.”

🙏 A huge thank you to everyone responsible for our day out to “Old Petty” on Friday. Martin and I were accompanied on our 4 ball by Paul and Ryan and suffice to say we all thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We had a light lunch before we started and a light supper before we left so the £500 gift card was well spent !!
Now the course was fantastic and comes recommended by us all. Alas it was very windy, but we got round dry.
I was particularly keen to see the layout having met course designer Tom Doak who visited Durness on the day Bob McIntyre won the Scottish Open at the Renaissance which is Tom Doak’s other Scottish design. Yes I was impressed.
Obviously it is similar to Castle Stuart because of backdrops, terrain etc and this was discussed at length over supper. I listened intently to the opinions of my 3 companions who performed pretty well, and will definitely visit again. As for me I probably won’t but for those who know about my challenge for my 70th. year, I had only 1 ten so was delighted. 😂So thanks again all of you. ... See MoreSee Less

My favourite golf course anywhere.
Have played it on many occasions, often on my own on the course, but loved every minute of it. Great wee course!!
Ive played over 1300 courses in the UK..Durness still my favourite
Wild flowers are absolutely amazing- alpine plants at sea level, probably a good job that I’m always distracted by the amazing environment as my golfing skills are pants!🤣🤣
It takes some effort to get there, but it was worth it both times!
Best par 3 and par 5 Iv ever played - love this course
I remember those views! ❤️😊
My favorite course that I will never in person see or play... first intro to durness was a Golfmates video
Absolutely I feel in love with this golf course & the views and cannot wait to return at some point
Lovely course at Durness, but there’s no ‘edge of the world’ on a globe
