Rising optimism about golf plan

Hopes are growing that proposals for a major golf course in the Highlands will get the go-ahead after Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) responded to a planning application.

Following the response, developers behind the proposed Coul Links major golf course proposal said there was a “strong platform” for taking forward a multi-million-pound investment in East Sutherland that, they said, would generate numerous jobs. SNH has noted that large economic benefits would arise from the Coul Links proposal.
