About Barnbougle Dunes Golf Course
Barnbougle Dunes on Tasmania's north coast is one of the great golf development stories of the twenty-first century — a potato farm that was transformed into one of the world's top 20 golf courses when Tom Doak and Mike Clayton discovered the extraordinary links terrain along the Bass Strait coastline in 2004. The duneland at Barnbougle is the genuine article: wind-blown sand hills, fescue turf, bass strait sea breezes, and the kind of naturally varied topography that normally only develops over centuries of coastal geological processes. Unlike many 'links-style' courses built on non-links terrain, Barnbougle Dunes is true links golf — firm, fast, windswept, and demanding the kind of low, running game associated with the great Scottish and Irish courses. The site also includes a second course — the Lost Farm — designed by Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw, making Barnbougle one of only a handful of places in the world where two world-class links courses share the same property. Open to all visitors, it is the most internationally accessible world-class links golf destination in Australia.
