Situated to the north of Troon, Barassie is perhaps best known as an Open Championship Qualifying venue with some of the best kept greens in Scotland. The course has undergone considerable changes over the past three years and now has a 27 hole facility with the new course playing throughout the season and the traditional course during the winter months. The new layout has added a different dimension to the course and whilst the Par of 72 seems standard there is little standard about the SSS of 74.

The course measures in off the back tees at just under 7000 yards and the new holes provide some wonderful challenges perhaps no more so than the par 3 fourth hole or the quirky double dogleg par 5 eighth. The new course is a tough track but is typically what Scottish links golf is about - large undulating greens, deep bunkers and a variety of dog legs.

Combined with the nine holes and its location close to Prestwick International Airport or the ferry terminal at Troon Barassie is an excellent venue for corporate or society days out. Excellent catering facilities and extended pro shop and a major investment in changing room facilities.
