The Castle Stuart course, opened in Summer 2009, has been created by the same team
behind the excellent Kingsbarns Links near St Andrews.
Castle Stuart is in a superb
setting on the Moray Firth to the east of Inverness. This will prove a worthy addition
to the other Championship golf courses in this area. Alongside
Royal Dornoch
and the championship course at
Nairn Golf Club, Castle Stuart makes a visit to the
Inverness area well worth considering for any golf tour.
Golfers will enjoy wonderful views across the Moray Firth from all around the links.
The course design has been given very careful consideration and the layout ensures
each hole is isolated from the others.
The excellent condition of the course, and the challenging layout, led to it being
selected to stage the
Scottish Open in 2011, just two years after opening. Castle Stuart hosted the event again in 2012.
While the courses features revetted bunkers, much associated with Scottish links golf,
the designers have included large open bunkers which are more in keeping with the original
links when large open sandy areas were common features of the golf courses.
Undulating links terrain and these large open bunkers will provide plenty of challenge and
entertainment for visitors to this new golfing venue.
