Golf on Mull

Welcome

Mull has two golf courses, one on the clifftop above Tobermory and the other on the shore of Scallastle Bay.

Tobermory Golf Club has nine holes on the clifftop. The views from the course are outstanding. It was voted the ‘Best 9 hole golf course in Scotland’ in 2008. It is a hilly course, where Craignure is flat. Although quite different from Tobermory, Craignure is also an extremely scenic course. Both courses take payment by honesty box, and there are no bookings.

A free morning email to see what’s on this week, catch up on what’s happening in Scotland and find somewhere new to go.

The Daily for 4 November, from Scotland with love. A pink sandstone castle bristling with conical turrets and a Union Jack flag rises above a gravel forecourt, autumn-tinged ivy climbing one wing beside cannon displayed on the lawn.
