The golf course, which was established in 1877 and awarded its royal status 29 years later, in 1906, is a treasured part of the region's golfing history, which can be traced back as far as 1616. The site features impressive views across the Dornoch Firth, and was described as the 'king of Scottish link courses' by Golf International.

Donald McLachlan, Managing Director for Morrison Construction Highland, commented: "This is an exciting project that will offer us the chance to create a fantastic new clubhouse for the Royal Dornoch Golf Club, that members and the wider community will be proud of for years to come."
