Royal Dornoch, Aberdeenshire, and the Highland North

No where is this glorious fusion between club and country better displayed than the Scottish Highlands. This golf vacation seamlessly slides into the archetypal Scottish landscape, culture, and history, making it ideal for non-golfers too. We combine the two centres of the north, the Highlands, and Aberdeenshire to roll up a total of five golf courses ranked in the world's top-100, plus a decent shot of adding a sixth by detouring into St Andrews on the return journey south

The jewel in the crown is Royal Dornoch, ranked in the world's top-10 and reputedly Scotland's best. We’ve also introduced a second top-100 course, the Scottish Open venue of Castle Stuart. Nairn is a recent host of the Walker Cup and reputedly home of the best greens in Scotland. A trio of courses on the Aberdeenshire coast, Cruden Bay, Royal Aberdeen and Trump Aberdeen, all hold the coveted top-100 ranking. These are dramatic links courses played in amongst stunning tall dunes and complex valley systems. The winds cuts through them in unpredictable bursts making them extremely hazardous and challenging to navigate safely.

And just to top things off, we travel close enough to St Andrews to give ourselves a decent shot of adding the 'home of golf' to the haul as well
