Golf

Boat of Garten Golf Club. This is one of Scotland's greatest "undiscovered" courses. The club, which dates to the late 19th century, was redesigned and extended by James Braid in 1932, and each of its 18 holes has a strong Highland feel. Some cut through birch wood and heathery rough, and most have long views to the Cairngorms. An unusual feature is the preserved steam railway that runs alongside part of the course. Nethybridge Rd., Boat of Garten, Highland, PH23 3BQ. 01479/831282; www.boatgolf.com. £75. Reservations essential.
