In this episode of the NCG Top 100s Podcast, Tom Irwin is joined at Dunbar Golf Club by Membership Services Manager Cameron John Byrne for an in-depth look at one of Scotland’s most captivating links courses.
Set on the rugged East Lothian coastline, Dunbar blends over 400 years of golfing history with a layout shaped by Old Tom Morris and refined through the ages, yet still remarkably untouched in its essence. Tom and Cameron explore what makes the course so special, from its natural routing and ever-changing winds to its dramatic sea views, unique features, and moments that truly define links golf at its purest.
They also dive into Dunbar’s growing reputation on the global stage, its appeal to travelling golfers, and why it’s fast becoming a must-play alongside the region’s biggest names.
Looking ahead, Cameron shares exciting insight into the club’s future: a brand-new clubhouse, a reimagined routing, and the addition of a high-quality 9-hole par-3 course—all designed to enhance the Dunbar experience while preserving its rich heritage.
This is a conversation about tradition, evolution, and why Dunbar might just be one of the most authentic links experiences in the world.
