Played in the Royal Deeside Golf Week and had a very enjoyable time. This is my 3rd time at this event and I have enjoyed all 3 times.
It was very well organised considering the number of people playing.
Out of the 4 courses Aboyne is my favourite but they are all interesting in their own way.

The condition of the course was good, although the greens could have been faster. The staff in the clubhouse were friendly and efficient , the menu was varied and the food good.

Royal deeside

Me and 2 friends had travelled up from the Lake District for the royal deeside competition over 4 days. The first course was aboyne on the Monday, stunning course, very good greens and beautiful sights of the surrounding hills etc. It has some quirky holes on the back 9, and a great par 5 to start with on 10. Great facilities very friendly staff etc, I would really recommend playing aboyne if you are get up that way!

Yes our very own 'Amens Corner' tests golfers after the relatively flat front 9 holes.

We hope to see you back to masters the 'rigg & furrows' of holes 10-13.

Mr Baker

The course was good except for the part round at 10th and 11th. Fair course.They 4 day competition could maybe be revised. Having four days stableford is a bit boring. The updates, etc were great. Thanks for your hospitality.
You should also stop playing with the people you know. It is a chance to meet new people and playing with different people would be more friendly.

Great Outing course

Played in a corporate golf outing, lovely test for all handicappers. Couple of quirky holes on the back nine are more than offset by front nine and overall condition of the course.

(Round played: May 2017 - Score: 82 Handicap: 14.2)
