If you enjoy plotting your way round a cerebral design, head for this peaceful moorland course with rolling fairways, loch and streams. The 14th stands out; called ‘Sair Trauchle’ (which translates as a great struggle) you must drive away from the out of bounds down the right… but be bold if you’re to get on in two.
