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.”

Message from the club captain on our success at the Scottish Golf Tourism Awards.
I am sure you will be as delighted as me to know that Durness won the Best 9 Hole Golf Course in Scotland at the Scottish Golf Tourism Awards last night in Inverness.
The criteria for the award were:
Course design and layout.
Scenic beauty.
Course condition and maintenance.
Customer experience.
We have members past and present to thank for the foresight and continued dedication for providing such a magnificent golfing asset in North West Sutherland.
I look forward to seeing many of you on the course this coming season but be warned, this award may bring in many more golfers wanting to play the Best 9 hole golf course in Scotland 2024!
Regards
Sheila Urquhart (Captain) ... See MoreSee Less
