4. Southerness Golf Club

5. Colvend Golf Club
This course, although only recently extended to 18 holes has received unanimous approval from all of our visiting parties. A little hilly in parts but you will be rewarded with the same wonderful views as it’s illustrious near neighbour Southerness.

The 18 hole parkland course is in an open agricultural setting with some water hazards which add to the challenge. 5418 yards SSS 67

8. Moffat Golf Club
A lovely upland course designed by Ben Sayers and opened in 1884. This can be a real test with the direction and strength of the wind adding to the challenge. The absolutely outstanding views alone make the 22 mile journey from Powfoot worthwhile. 5218 yards SSS 67

9. Silloth on Solway
On the other side of the Solway in Cumbria this is one of England’s finest links courses. Playing Silloth Powfoot and Southerness will give you a real feast of Links Golf and a truly “Parfect” Golf Break 6070 yards SSS 70

character that will make your visit to Dumfriesshire a

pleasure. Our region with it’s fine and varied golf is only 200 miles from the heart of England. Your next golf break in the home of golf could be a lot closer than you think.
