Barnbougle Dunes is a links course on the north-east coast ofTasmania. It is sculptured between dunes rising from Bass Strait and a
sprawling farm. The clubhouse is set on a dune between the 9th and 18th greens and the deck reaches for the nearby beach.
The course has been described as a work of art, designed by the famed Coore and Crenshaw team. Since it opened in 2005, Barnbougle has
been ranked as the number one public-access course in Australia .and the seventh-best public access course in the world. US Golf Digest
ranked Barnbougle number 35 in the world.
The adjacent second course, the Lost Farm, is on the opposite bank of the Forester River and designed by the same winning team as the first
links. It has been described by Bill Coore "as good, if not better" than the site ofthe first course. This second course is also open for public
access. There is course-side accommodation - a lodge-style retreat of approximately 60 rooms.
Both links were developed by Barnbougle Dunes and The Lost Farm owner Richard Sattler with strong support from close friend and
business associate Mike Keiser. Keiser is a Chicago businessman and owner of Bandon Dunes Golf Resort in Oregon.

Australia's Oldest Golf Course
The Ratho Golf Links at Bothwell on Tasmania's central highlands/centralTasmania were first enjoyed by the pioneering Reid family, who
emigrated from Scotland in 1822. Ratho is Australia's oldest golf course and the oldest outside of Scotland.
Several quirky features on the original holes of note are: Bunkers, 'hazards' such as hedges, vegetable gardens, rock walls, irrigation canals,
and sheep yards will be put into play.
Visitors can play a round with hickory clubs. There is also the timeless appeal of great short holes.
The developer of Ratho was involved in the creation of Barnbougle Dunes and the aim is to deliver a similarly memorable and relevant
experience - through the historical integrity, charm, and challenge of the golf holes.
