Another Place, The Machrie
Facing the Atlantic, with unbroken views of dunes, sea and sky, lies The Machrie on the Isle of Islay. A contemporary hotel with 43 beautifully designed rooms, suites and family lodges, a world-class golf links, restaurant, outside sauna and hot tub garden, screening room and modern art collection.
Freshly landed seafood served on the terrace. Far-stretching empty sands. Cool clear waters inviting you in. On Islay, “Queen of the Hebrides” – and one of the easiest to reach islands off the west coast of Scotland – adventure, awe and a landscape teeming with wildlife await among the rugged Rhinns and sheltered bays.
Our Recommended Courses
The Machrie Links
At The ‘new’ Machrie, course architect DJ Russell has maintained the need for artistry amidst the inherent randomness that is such a diverting feature of all seaside golf. The blind shots remain too. But with a twist. On almost every hole, the ideally placed tee-shot will now allow the golfer an unimpeded view to the green and the flag. But anything less than perfection will see that advantage removed.
