Street View Golf Course Machrihanish Scotland

View Larger Map

Street view of the golf course at Machrihanish, Scotland. Machrihanish has become well known in the last few years mainly because of its exceptional first hole which requires the round's opening shot to carry the Atlantic. It is a tough start, particularly into a breeze. The course is set in wonderful dunes in the small village of Machrihanish, which is situated on the western side of the remote Kintyre Peninsula; this is where the sky is big, the sunsets are dramatic and the air has been warmed by the Gulf Stream and its relative inaccessibility has saved it from becoming more commercialised. Machrihanish Golf Club. Tour Campbeltown.

Old Photograph Ethie Castle Scotland

Old photograph of Ethie Castle, Angus, Scotland. Ethie Castle is a 14th Century castle, situated around three miles north of the fishing town of Arbroath in Angus, Scotland. Ethie Castle dates to around 1300, when the monks at nearby Arbroath Abbey built a sandstone keep. The castle passed through the hands of the de Maxwell family and into the ownership of Scotland's last Cardinal, David Beaton who was murdered in St. Andrews in 1546. The castle was purchased in 1665 by the Carnegie family, who later became the Earls of Northesk, and was owned by them through to 1928. The castle is reputed to be the basis for the fictional Castle of Knockwhinnock in Sir Walter Scott's novel The Antiquary. Sir Walter Scott was a close friend of William Carnegie, 8th Earl of Northesk and frequently stayed at Ethie Castle. The castle is presently owned by the de Morgan family and has been converted for use as a hotel.
