Dunaverty Golf Club: A Hidden Gem on the Kintyre Peninsula
Situated at the southern tip of the Kintyre Peninsula, Dunaverty Golf Club is a true links course that offers a charming and unique experience.

However, this “little gem” provides an enriching round for any dedicated golfer.
Prepare for a warm Scottish welcome, a rewarding hilly walk, and spectacular views of the Mull of Kintyre, as well as the Scottish and Irish coasts. Our tip: bring your half set and enjoy one of Scotland’s most delightful and scenic golfing experiences.
