Characteristics
Shiskine Golf and Tennis Club offers a truly unique golfing experience on the spectacular Isle of Arran. Founded in 1896, this seaside links course is famous for its unconventional 12-hole layout. The terrain is often described as a topographical roller coaster, featuring blind shots and iconic holes like the "Crow's Nest" and "Himalayas." Players enjoy stunning views across the Kilbrannan Sound to the Mull of Kintyre. A modern clubhouse, tennis courts, and a bowling green complement the historic course.

Unique
Reviewed September 14, 2023
Fairways average, greens moderate
Clubhouse easy
Layout bizarre, lots of blind holes,
12 hole course rare
Location pretty much at the end of the world (ferry, narrow streets)
But: You won't forget having played this course with its gigantic panorama in light wind and sun.
Therefore, do not rate according to normal standards!

Very well maintained & best greens on Arran
Reviewed June 16, 2018
An early tee time allows a "quiet" round on the otherwise totally overcrowded course. From 1000 clock start every 8 minutes 4 golfers which inevitably leads to strong delays. Blind deductions and several blind approaches can lead to high ball losses.
The most beautiful and well-maintained of the island. But playing 30 pounds for just under 2 hours is steep.
A clubhouse without a license lets the golfer go fast...

Interesting place
Reviewed June 18, 2017
An American author who wrote a book about the "Hidden Gems" in Scotland says to this place: if he could play only one place for the rest of his life, the Shiskine would be. So far I would not go, but the place is as well maintained as frequented and very interesting to play. The first round is needed to be - despite Strokesaver - halfway oriented. Who is on Arran should at least play.
