Golf Highland, Scotland - Inverness Golf Club

Inverness Golf Club is situated less than one mile from Inverness town centre. Situated on a rolling plateau overlooking the Beauly Firth, this par 69, SSS 70 parkland course has a number of features. Over the years, Club Councils have planted many trees which now make the course tree-lined and with the Millburn running throughout the course, it demands accurate hitting to stay out of trouble, The course's length, at 6,226 is not long by modern standards, which makes it an enjoyable test of golf. The short holes at Culcabock, however, usually played into the prevailing wind, are well trapped, calling for accurate long iron play. The highlight of the course has to be the dog-leg 14th hole, which at 475 yards, not only demands length and accuracy off the tee, but an extremely narrow entrance into a small green normally requires the steeliest of nerves with a long iron or wood. At 461 yards, the 18th is one of the best finishing holes in the north, and a par to finish makes the following refreshment in the 19th, overlooking the green, all the more enjoyable.

Visitors are made welcome at Inverness, with many off-peak tee times available during weekdays, although Thursday is ladies' day and times are limited. Saturday is the busiest day as most are taken up with Members' competitions, so should be avoided up to 18.00. However, with the long summer evenings, Inverness are encouraging visitors to consider the "Sundowner" ticket, which will entitle visitors to an ever further reduced fee for starting times after 19.00.
