Trump Turnberry Golf Course
A Legendary Crown Jewel of Links Golf
World-Class Heritage and the Ailsa Course
A scenic, 45-minute coastal drive south from Blackrock House brings you to Trump Turnberry, globally recognized as one of the most stunning and prestigious golf resorts on earth. Sitting proudly on the rugged South Ayrshire cliffs, its legendary Ailsa Course has played host to four iconic Open Championships most famously the unforgettable 1977 "Duel in the Sun" between Tom Watson and Jack Nicklaus. Extensively and masterfully redesigned by renowned architect Martin Ebert, the Ailsa consistently ranks as the number one golf course in the UK, offering an elite bucket-list experience for any passionate player.
Play Along the Crashing Waves
What cements Turnberry's legendary status is its unmatched layout, which features an incredible, exhilarating stretch of holes that hug the rugged shoreline. Players tee off directly over the crashing waves of the Firth of Clyde, navigating jagged coastal inlets and deep, penalizing bunkers. The architectural centerpiece of the round is the world-famous 9th hole, where golfers must fire a precise shot across the rocky coastline toward the iconic Turnberry Lighthouse, which now stands beautifully restored as the most opulent halfway house in the sport.
