Dundonald Links has become the first UK golf venue to join the International Associate Clubs (IAC) network, a global collection of almost 250 illustrious sport and leisure clubs.
The Ayrshire venue – home to a popular Kyle Phillips links course, an award-winning clubhouse and acclaimed accommodation – joins a network spanning six continents, including more than 40 golf clubs.
The partnership means members of IAC’s global network can enjoy exclusive reciprocal rates at Dundonald Links, making the venue an even more attractive prospect for many of the estimated four million international tourists that visit Scotland each year.
David-Ross Nicol, director of golf at Dundonald Links, said: “Ayrshire is a must-visit for anyone who loves golf, and we believe that, by joining the International Associate Clubs network, we’ve given members of these fantastic clubs across the world one more reason to come and experience what we have to offer here at Dundonald Links.
“It’s a pleasure to be part of such an illustrious group and a testament to how far our off-course facilities have come in the last six years.”
IAC was founded more than 35 years ago with the primary objective of facilitating reciprocal access for members of prestigious clubs on a global scale. It has since grown to include clubs in upwards of 50 countries.
Alexander Klostermann, executive director at IAC, said: “We are excited to have Dundonald Links join the IAC Network. With its excellent golf facilities, we find it will make a great addition to our network of over 200 clubs worldwide for our members to utilise.”
