What the club says: Formed in 1877, Dornoch has now been a Royal club for over 100 years! It is not just the Championship course that presents golfers with the challenges of links-land. Our second 18 hole course the Struie is enjoyable and entertaining for the whole family at a modest green fee, and it can also test the lower handicap player.

Truly a Champion (Royal Dornoch)
From the minute you arrive, Royal Dornoch oozes class. Great welcome, friendly staff, the place has a proper “Golf Aura” surrounding it.Starter was great, lovely little pack, bag tag, scorecard holder, planner, a lovey memento.
The course was just immense, from The 1st, (The First) to the 18th (Glenmorangie) every single hole was a joy to play. Don’t think I could pick a favourite, and, to me, there are no weak holes. Just lots of enjoyment.
At a place like Dornoch, scores don’t matter. But, it’s always nice to sneak a birdie somewhere, probably on the way out.
I loved all the par 3s, none of which are particularly long, proving Par 3s don’t need to be 200+ yards.
Once in your life, just forget the expense, and play Royal Dornoch

The course was in great condition (in April). The scenery and setting were outstanding. It was comfortably the best course that I have ever played (having played a reasonable number in the Top 100 rankings).

Course in beautiful condition set up for all players to enjoy. As some holes are very long par 4’s these are a real challenge for the average golfer. Great fun to play this iconic course in perfect conditions.

The par 3's are some of the best I've ever played. The design of the course offers a great challenge, while also being enjoyable to play. The natural links style of the course add to the beauty of the course. Overall, the quality of this course is outstanding with amazing scenery.
