“Mach Dunes” is a magical seaside resort offering a GB&I-Top-100 links golf course, two fully-restored historic hotels, seaside cottages for rent and purchase, two traditional Scottish pubs, and two acclaimed restaurants. It all combines to give resort guests and cottage owners the warmest of Scottish welcomes and the kind of unforgettable experiences that can only be found here.

Set hard against the Atlantic Ocean on Scotland’s west coast, Machrihanish Dunes shares breathtaking views and a majestic dunescape with the neighboring Machrihanish Golf Club. The acclaimed David McLay Kidd-design at Mach Dunes offers golfers the chance to experience golf the way it began, to create and craft golf shots just as the men of Scotland did centuries ago.

Once regarded as the pinnacle of luxury accommodation in the west of Scotland, the lovingly restored Ugadale Hotel now serves as the centerpiece of The Village at Machrihanish Dunes. Twenty-two stunning guest rooms and suites pamper guests in an atmosphere of casual elegance and offer modern amenities graced with historic charm.

A mere eight kilometers from Machrihanish, the historic Royal Hotel was fully restored by Southworth in 2012. Guests in the Royal’s 23 sumptuously appointed rooms enjoy majestic harbor views, along with all the contemporary conveniences you’d expect in a modern luxury accommodation. It’s old-world elegance with a modern twist.

Machrihanish Dunes offers dining options ranging from intimate to opulent. The Kintyre Club at The Ugadale Hotel is a world-class malt whisky bar and restaurant, while The Harbourview Grille at The Royal Hotel offers delicious fare with views of the harbour. For more casual dining, kick back at the historic Old Clubhouse Pub and Restaurant or the lively Black Sheep Pub.
