older and offers challenges and enjoyment in equal
measure. Dundonald Links is located at the very heart
of Ayrshire’s golf coast near Open venues Royal Troon,
Prestwick and Turnberry, just 10 minutes from Prestwick
Airport and half an hour from Glasgow.
The course prides itself on its environmental practices

Como, Italy. In 2014 the course was awarded ‘UK
Environmental Golf Course of the Year’ by the STRI and

golf environments worldwide.
Dundonald Links has quickly become recognised as one
of Europe’s “must play” links courses. Designed by Kyle
Phillips, the course has played host to prequalifying
for The European Tour and qualifying for the Senior
British Open Championship. Dundonald Links plays host
to The Aberdeen Asset Management Ladies Scottish
Open in 2015 and The Ladies British Open Amateur
