This is a municipal course which is generally in great condition. It has some excellent scenary and some challenging holes. The value for money is probably as good as it gets as its very cheap to play and easy to access. I've never been in the clubhouse so can't comment on that.

This is a good links course not for the faint hearted as it holds a lot of hills and the wind is always blowing in off the north sea

Course in excellent condition especially the greens. Although fairways are wide if you miss them the rough is perhaps too severe. Very hilly so electric cart would be a boon.

Reviewed Jun 19 2012

I cant complain about this course at all, the Tee's, Fairways & Greens are immaculate, a credit to the staff !! Some say their are to many hills and blind holes but for me this is what makes it unique. A tough trek on the legs but if you can keep the ball straight, a better player can leave their driver at home as you have to think your way round this course, laying up most holes. I have played many courses in Aberdeen and throughout Scotland but for a municiple course the greens really are a credit to the club, and at £15 per round midweek it proves that with the right calibre of staff and knowledge you dont have to join an overpriced private golf club to play and enjoy golf at a high standard.
