The Club

Gairloch Golf Club was founded in 1898 and ​​occupies a fabulous location on the West Coast of Ross-shire in the Highlands. Alongside the course is a beautiful sandy beach with the Minch and the islands of Skye, Harris and Lewis to the west, the mountains of Torridon to the south, and the wilderness of Letterewe to the east.

Gairloch Golf Club is on the North Coast 500 route and is about 4 hours from Glasgow. Inverness is an hour and 20 minutes away and there is a bus service which connects Gairloch to Inverness.

The Club welcomes visitors and offers popular Open Competitions for members and visitors alike. On Tuesday mornings you can join our ‘seniors’ for a social game and use it as a ‘general play score’. Senior ladies play on Wednesday mornings and again, visitors are more than welcome to join in. Please check our website www.gairlochgolfclub.co.uk and Golf Empire for details of competitions and events and to book a tee time.

Gairloch Golf Club is a 9-hole course with a Par of 63 white, 62 yellow & 64 red - length 4,499 yards. The course provides a significant challenge to golfers of all abilities. Although not a links course as such. Our 8th/17th hole is a Par 5 adjacent to the beach, proving very popular and testing with many low handicap visiting players. It has been featured in Golf Monthly’s top 100 par 5’s for 9-hole courses in the country.

The Links Café/Bar provides excellent catering facilities within the Club and details of their operating hours can be found on their Facebook page. There are a range of golfing essentials on sale within the clubhouse. Our tenants have undertaken a major internal redecoration of the clubhouse and all should be up and running for the start of the new season.

The Club telephone is not always manned; therefore it is advisable to make any enquiries by email at gairlochgolfclub@hotmail.co.uk

The Greens-staff have been busy over the autumn/winter months, building 2 new greenside bunkers on the 4th and introducing us to a large ‘sandscape’ on the approach to the 8th/17th. More improvements are also underway; building a large new tee for the 5th/14th which should be ready for play in 2023.

2021 was a very encouraging season, with ‘stay-cationers’. The extra income has allowed us to make improvements to both the course and the clubhouse.
