Millport Golf Club

Formed in 1888 as the Cumbrae Golf Club by Glasgow Golf Club members holidaying on the island, and renamed Millport in 1900 to avoid confusion with Perthshire's Comrie club, this heathland course was improved by James Braid and George Duncan in 1912-13. Set on the highest point of the Isle of Cumbrae with panoramic views to Arran, Bute and Ailsa Craig, blind shots and strategic out-of-bounds on the early holes demand precision despite the course's modest length.
