Dunning Golf Club

Dunning Golf Club sits in the village of Dunning in Perth and Kinross, roughly ten miles southwest of Perth in central Scotland. The course was laid out by Joe Anderson, a professional golfer and course designer active in Scotland during the early twentieth century. Anderson designed several courses across Scotland, often working on modest parkland and moorland layouts for local communities. The course occupies gently rolling terrain characteristic of Strathearn, the broad agricultural valley that runs through this part of Perthshire. The land offers natural movement without severe elevation changes, and the routing takes advantage of the area's open aspect with views toward the Ochil Hills to the south. Mature trees frame several holes, and the layout reflects the practical, straightforward design approach common to many Scottish village courses from this era. Dunning serves a local membership and visiting golfers exploring the Perthshire region. The course provides a traditional Scottish golfing experience in a rural setting, with the village itself retaining much of its historic character. The club maintains a welcoming atmosphere typical of smaller Scottish golf clubs, where the focus remains on accessible, enjoyable golf rather than championship length or difficulty. The course fits naturally into the agricultural landscape surrounding Dunning, offering a quiet round in one of central Scotland's less-traveled golfing areas.
