Bonar Bridge & Ardgay Golf Club

Campo de 9 hoyos cerca de algunos famosos destinos como Dornoch, Brora o Tain.

Probablemente no haya nadie cuando llegues asi que se paga el greenfee en un buzón (honesty box).

Con vistas al Loch Migdale el recorrido va de menos a más siendo los hoyos 1 y 2 para mi los menos atractivos.

Algunos hoyos atractivos y en especial el par 3 hoyo 6 que me pareció una maravilla.

Golf en estadi puro en una bonita finca de pinos.

We kozen Bonar Bridge omdat wegens weersomstandigheden het wel eens slecht kon worden.

Inderdaad echt Schots weer met regen. Dus maar 9 holes gespeeld en daarna het gezellige clubhuis is wat een tearoom was zonder alcoholische versnaperingen die je wel zelf mee kon nemen. Maar wel heerlijke koffie thee en koeken. De golfbaan was prachtig met mooie vergezichten en goed onderhouden. Hier komen we zeker terug.

Bonar Bridge is a wee 9 hole course just outside of Dornoch in the northern part of Scotland.

If you’re in the area and want a relaxed, quick round of golf definitely check it out. It is relatively short as a par 34 and 2,300 meters but it’s tricky with not a huge amount of width to the fairways.

It has a bit of a forest setting to it with fantastic views across the bay on certain holes.

We played there on a Saturday morning and there course was fairly empty and we got around pretty quickly. It is very local so there’s only a small clubhouse, no driving range, no pro shop and limited practice facilities but would certainly recommend dropping by for a casual round.

Mooie 9 holes parkachtige baan met uitzicht op de highlands en een meertje. Afwisselende holes met elkaar verbonden mer bospaadjes. De fairways omgeven door de geelbloeiende Gorse. Redelijke greens. Clubhuis heeft de sfeer van een dorpspub.,

Bonar Bridge is a wee 9 hole course sneaked away in the highlands so if going there for the first time would be wise to let the sat nav get you there.

The course is generally pretty quiet so no need to worry about getting a tee time and parking.

The clubhouse is quaint, comfortable and always met by friendly staff who make you feel immediately welcome where you can grab a bite to eat before or after your round.

The practice facilities comprise of a putting green, nets and a chipping area which is suffice to warm up before going out on the course.

So to the course, a typical Heathland course comprising of 3 par 3's,5 par 4's and a par 5. For an average player there is no need to take out the big bertha even on the par 5 as its not a "grip it and rip it" course even though the fairways are quiet generous but keeping it on the short stuff is required to avoid going into the heather's, gorse and trees.

Greens are not the best to putt on especially if you played some of the other local links courses previously as you will find a significant contrast but overall placed well and large enough to get on for all levels of players.

Overall Bonar Bridge is a lovely wee course with stunning scenery and enjoyable to play for all levels of players, just wish the greens were slightly better.

Would i play here again, absolutely.
