Barrhead Golf & Country Club
The Furber connection continues over at Barrhead, a course also boasting design work from the man himself. As a result, it’s not exactly the easiest golf course – the layout’s a challenge at 6650 yards with difficult greens, contoured fairways framed by a dense foliage of trees and water hazards abound. But the quality of the course speaks for itself; it’s been included in Golf Digest’s “Best Places to Play” multiple times as a must-play course for golfers of all levels.
Barrhead also offers an impeccable dining service along with 16 camping stalls, making this one of the best weekend destinations.
Barrhead offers a world-class experience with the convenience of being in your backyard.
