Resort Overview
Barnbougle is home to a pair of Top 100 Courses in Asia-Pacific. Need we say more? Ok, we will. The Dunes is traditional links golf at its best. It’s built along Tasmania’s northeast coast and provides a scenic journey full of awe-inspiring views. While the course is relatively young in age, it was beautifully designed with the tumbling land throughout the coastline property. One highlight is the short 7th, which is the southern hemisphere’s equivalent to Troon’s Postage Stamp hole and is equally adept at wreaking havoc. Its companion, Lost Farm, features huge dunes that run both parallel and perpendicular to the ocean. Be prepared to weave shots through the dunes as well as up and over. The par-3 4th has drawn comparisons to the famous 7th at Pebble Beach. It’s a must-see to find out for yourself! Soak in some of the best golf in the world and finish your day sipping on the world renowned wine Tasmania has to offer.
