Course History
Golf was first played on the original site at Northumberland in 1964 after four local golf enthusiasts raised the funds to establish a nine-hole country club. In 1988, the course was expanded and redesigned by Bill Robinson, from it’s original nine-hole course to the current 18-hole championship layout. The original nine holes were all given Gaelic names to honour the historic Scottish connections with the village of Pugwash. Over the years Northumberland Links Golf Course has played host to many of Nova Scotia’s prestigious Golf Championships.
