Cabot Highlands

The Cabot Highlands is at the heart of the Highlands, offering modern links golf at the world-renowned Castle Stuart Golf Links and the newly built Old Petty course. The two courses are quite different and challenge various parts of your game in there own separate ways.

From the moment you arrive, you’re met with sweeping views across the water to the Black Isle, rolling fairways framed by natural dunes, and a sense of serenity that only the Scottish Highlands can provide. Each hole at Cabot Highlands tells its own story — strategic bunkering, undulating greens, and panoramic vistas combine to create a course that’s as visually stunning as it is exhilarating to play.
