Wigtownshire County Golf Club

The 'County' is one of the most popular holiday golf courses in South West Scotland, an 18-hole, true links course situated on the shores of Luce Bay. The excellent condition of the course, combined with subtly sloping greens and changing sea breezes, provide a test of golf for both high and low handicappers. The area enjoys a temperate climate, so golfing is possible year round, and the club is renowned for its friendly welcome to visitors. The Course lies on the shores of the scenic Luce Bay. On a clear day, looking South towards Luce Bay, the Isle of Man can be seen. Although the course is slightly under 6000 yards, it is a test for both high and low handicap players, due to the differing directions of the sea breezes. The Course is also playable, on normal greens, throughout the winter. On average, frost greens may be used 8 or 9 times each year, with snow being a rare occurrence. There is also a practice area of over 4 acres adjacent to the Clubhouse. The 'County' welcomes all visiting parties and, because of its popularity during the summer months, it is advisable to book early thus avoiding possible disappointment. The Steward, Jimmy Caldwell provides a limited supply of equipment usually sufficient for most things visitors require on a day out. The Club has two petrol buggies and forty trolleys for hire, there are also changing and shower facilities available in the Licensed Clubhouse. Handicap Certificates are not required.
