My 10 favourite golf courses in the Home of Golf 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

#golftravel #golfscotland #golftips #golfswing

I took 11 friends on the best golf trip of their lives to the Scottish Highlands, here’s everything we got up to:

🏡 settle into our accommodation at Kellas House, part of an estate near Elgin that dates back to the 1700s

🏆 draw names to decide on the Ryder Cup teams for the week, start talking strategy

⛳️ Golf @covesealinks a family run 9 holer nestled in the bay just west of Lossiemouth. It’s likely you’ll bump into the very man who built the course. Bagpipes on the first tee optional.

🛖 18 holes @nairngolfclub for our bucket list tee time of the trip. Traditional links at its finest, punctuated by one of the most iconic halfway houses in the game.

🍸 Drinks at the newly owned @boathhouse, a 19th century manor that now operates as a hotel and retreat for creatives.

🥘 Dinner at the Kimberley Inn by the riverside in Findhorn, followed by a few beers under the sunset.

🏌️‍♂️ 36 holes @moraygolfclub1889 with morning foursomes on the New and afternoon fourball on the Old. Proper Scottish winds, proper Scottish links.

🐟A well earned dinner back at HQ prepared by a local private chef: scallops and black pudding, chicken supreme and lemon tart. Perfection.

🏜️ Onwards to the unique @cullenlinks where the course winds along the cliff top before plunging towards a collection of ancient sandstone red rocks.

Think you and your friends would enjoy a trip like this? Comment OFFTRACK and I’ll be in touch.

This was the best golf trip I went on in 2024:

Me, my Dad and my brother drove the North Coast 500, playing every golf course along the way.

🦅 Golspie
A true Highland gem known for being evenly divided into links, heathland and parkland

🌼 Helmsdale
A community run course that sits in the valley surrounded by blooming gorse, short and quirky.

🏡 Wick
A championship course laid out in the late 1800s, a true challenge with an epic back nine that hugs the dunes.

🦌 Thurso
The northern most golf course on the British mainland, a playable and well kept heathland parkland mix.

🌊 Reay
An authentic links that moves inland for the closing 9, a charming clubhouse with amazing views across the bay.

🏖️ Durness
One of my favourite golf experiences of the year, like playing golf in Lord of the Rings. Massive undulation changes, amazing views and dramatic lochs.

🛖 Gairloch
A short 9 holer squeezed into the bay, huts and solitary pines guide you round before the climax along the coastline.

Over a century ago a dramatic plot of land between the bustling city of Durban and the Indian Ocean was handed to two Scottish course designers. Mother Nature had already carved the foundations but the Scotsmen added the finishing touches and in 1922 Durban’s Crown Jewel emerged from the dunes. The course flourished at first, but eventually fell prey to the elements until its recent revitalisation returned it to its former glory. Durban Country Club now sits proudly as the only African course inside the World Top 100.

New Zealand is home to the second most golf courses per capita in the entire world. With almost 250 courses spread across the North Island alone, there wasn’t time to visit them all, but the 7 we played gave us a good idea of the depth of its offerings.

From sunrise rounds for $80 at Waipu to the jawdropping views of Kauri Cliffs, this tiny island offers a range of golf experiences to rival any in the world.

We’re proud to announce & welcome @short.side to Team Hiroki 🫱🏼‍🫲🏽

“Opportunity for adventure is one of golf’s greatest gifts. There really is no better reason to pack up your clubs and take off for far flung destinations than to chase your next best round. Becoming a part of the Hiroki team is the embodiment of that spirit. As a Scotsman, nowhere demands a bigger appetite for adventure than New Zealand and yet they feel deeply connected. With a Hiroki bag on my shoulder I’m equipped to take on the elements and mobile enough that even the least trodden paths can be explored.”

-James (Shortside) Wilson
