Try playing at Isles of Scilly Golf Club on St Marys, IoS, U.K. Scenically stunning views over the other islands. Watch out for the signature 4th hole.

I agree with Mike D. World Woods is one of my favorite tracks in Florida. You cannot go wrong by playing Pine Barrens and Rolling Oaks. While Rolling Oaks may not break the mold the Pine Barrens is not your everyday track. There probably is only about 20 waste area bunkers on the course, but they average about 3 acres each. I love it. I found it on www [dot] mygolfvacation [dot] com The one guy used to work there and informed me of it.
The course next to The Grove in Watford England, West Herts, was founded in 1890. Suggest you look at the course via their web site.
Just played Wine Valley in Walla Walla last month. Great links style course. Next time this Kansan is in Washington will definitely drive out of my way to re-vist. Great vineyards and wineries just down the road.
Being from the west, try the Old Works Golf Course in Anaconda, Mt. This is a Jack Nicklaus design with bent grass tee's boxes and fairways along with the black sand (Buy product of the old mine) in all the traps, lush greens with the black sand, Gorgeous!
Mold Breakers:
Streamsong
Tobacco Road
Wolf Creek
I've played both Streamsong and the Talking Stick courses (and about 850 others). There are many courses in the Scottsdale area that are also "unconventional" if Talking Stick is the test - We-Ko-Pa, Ak-Chin, Quintero, Verde River to name a few and all are better tracks than Talking Stick (no houses, wide fairways, etc.)
Worldwoods is certainly not conventional Florida golf. The Pine Barron's course is equal to those at Streamsong and Rolling Oaks is a good track as well.
Check out the Cliffs at Mountain Park, near Travelers Rest, South Carolina; a Gary Player designed "links course in the mountains
Big Sky Golf Course located in Pemberton BC, Canada never fails to please. A beautiful, walkable track in a splendid setting at the base of rugged Mt Currie.
Well, say what you will about Donald Trump, his course near Aberdeen is very nice! (Although it is a Scottish course, with the heather, gorse, and deep pot bunkers.)
