Dundonald Links Welcomes Visitor Play

12.05am 5th April 2007 - Course Development

Dundonald Links, the new links course owned by the world-renowned Loch Lomond Golf Club, is opening its doors to visitor play with a new green fee structure.

Designed by Kyle Phillips, one of the game’s top architects, Dundonald Links is a true test of links golf that has been quietly maturing with member rounds, since its opening in 2003 and has matured to the point that it is now ready for an increased level of play.

“Dundonald is a fantastic links course that has already hosted final qualifying for the Senior British Open Championship and was recognised as one of the best new courses in the 2004 Robb Report. We now feel the time is right to increase the number of rounds played, with access for visitors both during the week and at weekends,” said Niall Flanagan, General Manager of Loch Lomond Golf Club and Dundonald Links.

“We believe we can offer visitors a combination of a great golf course and exceptional levels of customer service.” added Flanagan. “From the valet parking on arrival, to great food and beverage and a unique locker room service, visitors will enjoy a first class day’s golf.”

Situated on the stunning Ayrshire coast, near the legendary town of Troon, Dundonald Links is a mere 10 minutes from Prestwick Airport and half an hour from Glasgow Airport.

With a host of other championship golf courses on its doorstep, Dundonald Links is a great addition to any Ayrshire golfing itinerary. It can certainly lay claim to being a golf course for real golfers. Master-craftsman Kyle Phillips has created a classic links course that blends in seamlessly with the natural surroundings, in a similar vein to his highly-acclaimed Kingsbarns Golf Links.

“My desire was to create a championship Ayrshire-style links course that felt and played as though it was an old rediscovered course, by integrating newly constructed features with existing site features.” said Phillips.

Green-fees will be available at the following prices: Monday to Wednesday £95, Thursday & Friday £110 and Saturday & Sunday £125
