Characteristics

Located in the picturesque village of Thornhill in Dumfries & Galloway, this club offers a scenic golfing experience established in 1893. Originally nine holes, it was extended to a full 18-hole course in 1979, blending parkland and heathland characteristics. The relatively level terrain makes it walkable for all ages, yet the layout remains a sporting test. Golfers enjoy magnificent panoramic views of Mid Nithsdale throughout the round. The club, known for producing talents like Andrew Coltart, features a welcoming clubhouse with a restaurant to relax after the game.
