Fabulous course, stunning location

Played late in the day with the sun closing in by the 12 and last hole.

Beautiful course, varied, quirky and challenging in parts but good value for your shots.

If you are on Arran, don’t miss this one.

Good day out. Pro wanted us to play with two others, which wasn't necessary. Slow, but not ridiculous. Good experience overall.

Beautiful setting

Was disappointed as I was aware the course only has 12 holes but the Golf Now booking stated I had paid for 18 holes for two golfers. At the end of the 12 holes I queried with a staff member and he said it was a software issue and I should be aware the course was only 12 holes. I thought one could play another 6 holes but was told that I need to pay for another round. Surely Golf Now has software in place that makes one aware that the booking is only for 12 holes and not 18 holes.

My favourite away course

I adore Shiskine & recommend it every chance I get. 12 holes which can test every shot you have in the bag. We played on a lovely sunny day close to midsummer. The course was immaculate as ever & there was enough of a breeze to keep the golfers cool & the golf challenging. If you haven’t played yet and have the chance to do so, then take it. If you have, then you’ll know already.

Wonderful 12 hole golf course.

My husband and I both loved playing this very interestingly designed course. The signature hole is a par 3 with a very elevated green.

12 holes were just perfect to play. Very well maintained course, greens, tees and fairways were immaculate. We had a very warm welcome in the pro shop. We will definitely be playing this course again when we are next in the area.

A gem of a course.

The signature hole was a challenge, which club to use to get up on the green? The course was in stunning condition, greens fast and true. Really enjoyed playing 12 holes.

Picturesque course with great layout and sea views

A course for players of all skill levels and a fun experience. Playing only 12 holes made you thirsty for more, so recommend playing it twice. Breathtaking scenery on most holes with a traditional links feel. Small and simple pro shop and clubhouse but satisfies most requirements.

Quite frankly - OUTSTANDING!

Just a ‘must’ for any golfer. Sensational, holes in the most beautiful part of the world. Part of me wants the world to know about it and part of me doesn’t!! Just awesome.

A nice course with great views but only 12 holes

I thought £36 for 12 holes was expensive and nothing was mentioned on GolfNow when we booked it

Quirky but worth a visit

The 12 holes of Shiskine are interesting. The 3rd hole (Crow's Nest)) is a blind shot of around 100 yds straight uphill to a small green. It's a fair layout but several blind tee shots.
