Golf tourism in the North of Scotland is getting a big boost with Royal Dornoch Golf Club’s new prestigious clubhouse, including connection to our ultra-fast, ultra-reliable full-fibre broadband network.

The upgrades are helping the club to move to the next phase of its masterplan to attract new business with a new 18-hole course, a revamp of the popular Struie course and two new additional short courses.

Neil Hampton, general manager at Royal Dornoch, says that thanks to the “stunning” ultra-fast speeds we’re providing, the club is in the perfect position to meet the burgeoning global interest in golf and the growing number of international visitors inspired by events such as the Scottish Open.

Neil Hampton, General Manager at Royal Dornoch Golf Club said:

“It’s the crux of our business. You have to be connected to the world and doing it quickly and efficiently. If the internet went down right now and we couldn’t do emails or online bookings, suddenly the whole business stops. Even the tee sheet for people starting on the first tee, the software tells us who’s playing next, and our green staff are out on the course recording everything on an app and analysing it on a computer. The speed and security of our connection is a huge part of what we do.

The speed Highland Broadband could offer was immediately quite stunning and is much faster than other providers. We are making sure that whatever we do business-wise is through Highland Broadband so we know we’ve got the speed and security we need.”

As part of the plans at Royal Dornoch Golf Club, we’ve installed our secure business network that ensures the club’s services are available quickly and at any time. The club has members and players all over the world who can book golf 24/7 – and with a forecast 30% rise in advance bookings for 2026 compared to last year, they’ll make good use of our stronger and more capable broadband network.

Colin Woodward, Managing Director of Highland Broadband said:

“We are proud to be able to bring the UK’s fastest fibre broadband network to the Highlands of Scotland. The impact on business and individuals has been remarkable, making our efforts so rewarding and worthwhile. We were delighted to work with Neil and the team at Royal Dornoch to serve a truly international business and enabling the club to thrive through a reliable, full-fibre broadband connection.”
