Check back here regularly for news and events from the Torridon area.
The Rechullin Golf Course
Golf course may be a bit of an exaggeration , i like to call it a "pitch and pitch" as the greens are not really putting quality. It's quite a tough little course, but it's probably the most scenic 9 hole course in Scotland. Expect to lose a few balls in the many burns!
A scorecard and course map , with local rules can be found in the photo gallery and pro-tips , how to best play the course are available. Free use for guests at Rechullin, non residents can send a text to arrange to play if they agree to make a donation towards the upkeep of the course.
The current course record is 5 over par for 18 holes.
Not usually playable during winter months.
The Fisherman's Bothy
The old boathouse on the shore is being upgraded and may be available to rent at some point in the future - check here for the latest news or on Airbnb under "Fisherman's Bothy, Rechullin".
Photo's of the Bothy can be viewed in the phtoto gallery.
The Diamond Bothy
An old byre near the upper house is currently being converted for bothy use. It's not quite ready for letting yet (although i have been using it!) , but we are excited about it's potential. Progress will be documented here and photo's will be added to the gallery in due course.
