The incredible investment, fronted by Lanarkshire based company Ringsdale Leisure, is expected to create around 400 jobs.

It will include a golf course revamp, stunning new castle-style clubhouse, training academy, swimming pool, gym, health spa and driving range.

If planning permission is granted, the exciting project will also see the construction of a 153-bedroom hotel and 14 on-site chalets.

A Ringsdale Leisure spokesman said: “Our aims are that our new-look main course will be hosting Open Championship qualifiers within five years and be the venue for an annual European Tour tournament within 10 years.”
