Ayrshire\u2019s Dundonald Links continues to grow in status following a trio of notable industry achievements this week.<\/p>

After being named on the elite list of IAGTO\u2019s \u2018Outstanding Service Awards 2023\u2019, it was announced that the resort had earned top-30 placements in two of Golf World\u2019s Top 100<\/em> highly respected lists.<\/p>

The news is testament to extensive investment in recent years, which has transformed one of Scotland\u2019s most popular golf courses into a world-class resort with an array of luxury facilities and accommodation options.<\/p>

IAGTO, the global trade organisation of the golf tourism industry, presented its annual \u2018Outstanding Service Award\u2019 to fewer than 50 of the world\u2019s finest golf resorts, courses and hotels. The honour was voted for by IAGTO members and recognised destinations that consistently delivered an outstanding customer experience in 2022.<\/p>

Published by Today\u2019s Golfer<\/em>, the eagerly anticipated Golf World Top 100 <\/em>rankings remain one of the most respected resources for golfers who are looking to find the best courses the sport has to offer. Dundonald Links moves up to 30th in the latest edition of the \u2018Top 100 Courses Scotland\u2019 list, with the layout awarded an impressive 76 points out of 100. Meanwhile, the resort\u2019s recent transformation has seen it enter the \u2018Top 100 Resorts Great Britain and Ireland\u2019 for the first time, ranking an impressive 29th place.<\/p>

Ian Ferguson, General Manager at Dundonald Links, said: \u201cReceiving these accolades from the industry are testament to the hard work that our every member of our team puts in to ensure that every guest that visits Dundonald Links leaves having had a truly memorable experience.<\/p>

\u201cIt is particularly pleasing to be recognised among the best venues to stay and play in the country so soon after completing our transition into a fully-fledged resort.\u201d<\/p>

Driven by new owners Darwin Escapes, Dundonald Links\u2019 transformation was spearheaded by the opening of a new clubhouse in 2021. The contemporary building includes the resort\u2019s fine-dining experience, the Canny Crow Restaurant, as well as a state-of-the-art gym, pro shop and bar. Guests can stay in either the elegant hotel or a collection of luxury lodges just a short distance from all the resort\u2019s amenities.<\/p>

Dundonald Links\u2019 par-72 course has been one of Scotland\u2019s most popular layouts since a 2003 redesign, which was orchestrated by American architect Kyle Phillips, who has overseen the development of a number of modern-day classics such as Kingsbarns in Fife and The Grove in Hertfordshire. After successfully staging the Trust Golf Women\u2019s Scottish Open in 2022, the event has been confirmed to return to the resort in 2023, along with Final Qualifying for The Open Championship.<\/p>
