Highland village located in the centre of the East coast of Sutherland. The village boasts attractive beaches and is surrounded by beautiful countryside.

There are many attractions and amenities for visitors to enjoy. Dunrobin castle is the ancestral home of the Earls of Sutherland and the statue of the First Duke is sited at the top of Ben Bhraggie. The statue can be reached by footpath, providing magnificent views from the summit. The Big Burn waterfall is set in the finest and most beautiful small gorge in Sutherland and is only 20 minutes walk from the North end of the village.

Golspie

An amazing course with friendly informative staff.
Greens are in immaculate condition for October with each hole bringing its own unique experience to our round.
Must be one of the best golf courses in the area.

Wonderful course and extremely friendly staff

Would recommend this course to all golf enthusiasts. Helen in the pro shop is extremely helpful and a delight! The course is in excellent condition with rather fast greens. We are visiting from Australia and this is the best course we have played so far. Good value for money too.

Nice mix of links and parkland

If you are looking for a course on the east coast of Scotland that offers a little variety then Golspie ticks the box. Half of the holes are traditional links with lovely coastal views. You then cross the road to play a few holes of parkland. The fairways are narrow enough to keep you focused on playing straight but do offer a little forgiveness with the rough being not too unforgiving.
If you are in the area playing neighbours such as Brora and Dornoch then Golspie offers an affordable option to meet your golfing needs.
The shop offers the opportunity to stock up, and we were met with a welcoming smile. The weather factored into our round with a gusty wind and a few showers which added to the challenge. You’ll enjoy the course of you choose to play it.

Top Marks

Had loads of fun at Golspie. Course was in immaculate condition and best greens I’ve seen all year even with all the heavy rain. Super layout with a mix of watery links and heathland/parkland course. Might be in my new top three.

Everything about this place was great. The only thing letting it down is the clubhouse permanently shut for food/drinks

Excellent course

Fantastic layout. Challenging but fair test of golf. Staff couldn’t be friendlier. Really enjoyable save for two fourballs in buggies ahead took 40 mins to do last 2 holes. However, don’t let this put you off as the course is well worth the visit.

Overlooked gem of a golf course

I thoroughly enjoyed my round at Golspie with 2 of my golf mates. It is well worth the 1 hour drive from Inverness. As I remembered, the course was expertly maintained and the wind made it a challenge for us.

It is a real shame that this course is not busier. Possibly overlooked by golfers playing Dornoch and Brora.

I thoroughly recommend any golfer to venture to Golspie. It provides many different challenges. It starts off as a links course then has some heathland type holes followed by parkland holes. The last couple of holes are then more links type holes.
