Barnbougle Dunes

The 18 hole championship layout was designed by course architects Tom Doak and Mike Clayton, and is set among sand dunes overlooking Bass Strait.

Golfing tragic Greg Ramsay dreamed up the idea of building the course, and tourism entrepreneur and farmer Richard Sattler developed the concept with Ramsay, Doak and well known Melbourne golf identity Mike Clayton.

The layout is not long, but certainly presents a tough assignment, particularly when the wind is blowing hard, as it often does in this part of Tasmania.

Currently there are 22 accommodation villas on-site, as well as a restaurant and conference facility perched on the dunes, looking north over the Strait.

The Barnbougle Bus offers a transfer service from the city of Launceston – around one hour from Bridport – the nearest major airport offering regular commercial airline flights from mainland Australia.
