The first of several exciting real estate developments taking place at The Village at Machrihanish Dunes is the construction of 30 two-bedroom luxury golf cottages overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and the famous opening hole at Machrihanish Golf Club considered by many to be the best opening hole in the world.

The first eight cottages opened in July 2009, which have been receiving rave reviews (view Visitor Testimonials) from guests and others in the golf tourism business alike. In fact, in 2010 The Ugadale Cottages received Golf Tourism Scotland's Gold Standard Award for the "Hotel of the Year" in the Small Hotel / Guest House category. The cottages are beautifully finished inside and out with natural stone and slate roof exteriors and natural stone and hardwood finish interiors that are fully furnished and finished to the highest standard. The property has been thoughtfully configured to best accommodate visiting golfers and will be fully serviced and professionally managed.

Cottages are available for purchase with the benefit of a freehold shared ownership title for one, two, three or more weeks a year. Unlike timeshare, freehold shared ownership gives you a valid heritable title that will be registered in the Land Register of Scotland. The title is freehold and is yours for ever and can be sold or passed on to your family. Freeholds are being sold in weekly fractions by season. Owners, friends and family will have full use of a cottage free of charge for those allotted weeks. Owners who do not wish to use their entire allotment weeks have a number of income opportunities available to them including the option to lease some of their time through the management company to obtain a return on their cottage by accommodating visiting golfers.

Enjoy substantial savings if you purchase before the end of 2010
Purchase your week or weeks of holiday cottage ownership by 31 Dec 2010 and you’ll not only beat the VAT increase that’s coming in 2011, we’ll also pay your estate charges for your first three years of ownership!

The cottages are constructed in three phases. Phase I of the cottages is complete, consisting of 8 units ready for freehold shared ownership. To explore ownership opportunities take advantage of our special two-night Discovery Package for just £139.
