Shiskine
Golf Club - Isle of Arran
The
beautiful Ayrshire Island of Arran offers many delights some of
which are the seven golf courses positioned at various points
throughout the Island.
One of these golf courses is SHISKINE GOLF CLUB
which is unusual in the fact that it only has 12 holes but which
in no way detracts from the challenge of this outstanding scenic
Ayrshire Golf course. It is often mentioned in the "top 100"
golf courses in the UK and in 1997 it reached a high point when
Golf Monthly magazine placed it 77th in the best courses in the
UK and Ireland.
It is situated on the West Side of the island and is a total
links golf course commanding stunning views at every part of the
course over to the Mull of Kintyre. It is indeed one of the many
Ayrshire golf courses of outstanding beauty.
The
first hole runs straight along the beach and any wayward drive
to the left will find you "playing from sand" probably
quicker than you intended. The par 3 fourth is probably the signature
hole of the course with an elevated tee and magnificent views
across the sea. Although it may be a short course, every hole
offers a different challenge and at the end of your round you
will be welcomed into the new inviting clubhouse where you will
be able to sample the many delights of home baked Scottish cuisine.
Golf Ayrshire recommends that you visit the Isle of Arran and
