Due to the weight restrictions imposed on the aircraft, most times your golf clubs will be transferred into a slim pencil bag for the trip – or alternatively Callaway clubs are available for hire at both courses if you’d prefer to streamline your luggage for the flight.

It is the way to arrive at Barnbougle Dunes and Lost Farm. Not only does flying directly to the fairway save time, it adds a level of sophistication and intrigue to any trip to one of the most special places in Australian golf. The convenience of flying directly to and from cannot be understated. At the end of our group’s trip, we left the strip adjacent to Barnbougle Dunes at 3pm and two hours later I was in my car driving along Sydney’s Southern Cross Drive, heading for home. For regular travellers, that time saved means everything.

Getting There

The Golf Touring Company flies from Sydney directly to Barnbougle Dunes on a regular basis. The three-day package (for $2,500 per head, based on eight people) includes return flights, two nights’ accommodation, all meals and nine holes of golf on the first day, unlimited play on the second day and 18 holes on the third day. Upcoming departure dates are October 18 and December 13, however if you have a group of eight people you can choose travel dates to suit.

Transfer options are available for non-Sydney residents. Phone (02) 9977 4100 or visit
