Set in the dunes of Islay, Queen of the Hebrides, The Machrie Hotel and Golf Links enjoys an enviable location, nestled beside seven miles of golden sand in the Inner Hebrides. Opened in late Summer 2018 after a complete renovation and expansion, The Machrie Hotel features 47 beautifully designed rooms, suites and lodges, some with their own outdoor terraces and with stunning views across our highly rated Golf Links. The hotel offers guests the perfect place to meet and relax including our Restaurant 18 and the Stag Lounge with stunning views, our spa and of course our award winning Championship Golf Links Course.

As well as being named in the UK’s Top 30 Hotels in the Condé Nast Traveller Reader’s Choice Awards 2022, The Machrie is ranked as one of the best golf resorts in the world in Today’s Golfer Top 100 and is ranked No 6 in Europe by Leading Courses.

Our Links course was originally designed in 1891 by Willie Campbell, and has now been fully modernised by D J Russell, former European Ryder Cup Vice Captain and PGA tour player. The dramatic setting of Laggan Bay has few equals and the ever changing nature of the challenge offered by this acclaimed layout make the Machrie one to play. The scenery, the wildlife, the coastline, one of the finest Links courses in the world, coupled with the people, makes The Machrie the perfect spot from which to explore Scotland’s west coast.
