mountains facing the fury of the North Sea simply represents what golf is all about, with world class links such as Royal Dornoch, Royal Aberdeen, and Cruden Bay.

Highland courses, you'll discover, have been shaped almost entirely by nature with only slight modifications coming from some of the most famous names in golf course architecture.
