The Ugadale Hotel & Cottages in Machrihanish offer 22 rooms and suites plus eight luxurious two-bedroom cottages. The Royal Hotel, with 23 rooms all overlooking Campbeltown Harbour, is located in downtown Campbeltown, a mere five miles away.
Machrihanish Dunes was the first 18-hole course in the UK to earn certification from the Golf Environmental Organisation. It is consistently ranked as one of the most ecologically friendly courses in the world. Designed by David McLay-Kidd, it opened in 2009 on a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), the first course ever to be built on such a site and also the first to be built on the west coast of Scotland in over 100 years.
Now, it seems certain to reach its 20th anniversary even higher up the rankings. In 2024, owners Southworth announced plans to invest heavily in one of its most prized locations, elevating it further into an essential stay-and-play experience.
