Cabot reveals stunning new Tom Doak-designed links course that will twin with Castle Stuart Golf Links at its Highlands resort

Designed and built to embrace the natural topography of its stunning location, golfers are in for a treat as Cabot is set to open their brand new Old Petty golf course in the Scottish highlands.

Old Petty is set to open for preview play on August 1, with golfers able to book tee-off times to play this exceptional course.

Situated just a five-minute drive from Inverness airport, this brand new track offers up stunning vistas across the Moray Firth and of the 400-year-old Castle Stuart, this is a golf trip you do not want to miss.

Cabot is well known in the golfing world for its incredible range of golf resorts dotted around the world from Nova Scotia to Saint Lucia. The brand prides itself on its luxurious and incomparable golfing destinations and utilises its experience in the golf and hospitality industry to create unforgettable golfing experiences.

Old Petty is the organisation's latest addition and is situated just down the road from the world-renowned Castle Stuart Golf Links, which played host to the Scottish Open multiple times, with Alex Noren most recently winning at this illustrious track back in 2016.

The course has been designed by architect Tom Doak in association with Clyde Johnson.

Doak, a student of the legendary designer Pete Dye, and has built illustrious tracks including Pacific Dunes at the Bandon Dunes resort in Oregon and Ballyneal in Colorado.

Images released by Cabot show just how this partnership has blended this stunning course into the natural surroundings of the Scottish highlands.

Players will traverse along their way along the Scottish coastline, navigating around large bunkers, protected greens and uneven lies.

The course also features a unique criss-cross fairway start and finish as well as a short par three 17th hole and stunning views across the coastline on the 10th.

'We are so excited to be sharing this first glimpse of Old Petty,' Ben Cowan-Dewar, the CEO and co-founder of Cabot said.

'Old Petty is a course that will surprise, challenge and inspire, true to the spirit of the Highlands.'

While the Cabot Highlands reopened for play in March, Players can now secure their place to play Old Petty during the course's preview window.

Preview green fees are priced at £190. 

Cabot will be offering walking-only experiences on Old Petty during the preview window.

Players can twin their trip to the highlands with a round at the iconic Castle Stuart Links, which is priced at £330 per round.

'From the outset, our vision has been to honour the land and its rich history while crafting an unforgettable golf experience that adds to the reputation of Castle Stuart,' Cowen-Dewar adds.
