What The Club Says

A stunning links course, it has been recently placed as the 50th best course in Britain and Ireland by "Golf World". Initially laid out by Tom Morris in the 19th century, it was revised by Archie Simpson into the layout it is today and is very much a traditional links with humps, hollows and numerous blind shots. Offering spectacular views of Slains Castle, it is a picturesque and challenging test of golf.

Golf trip to North East Scotland

I played Royal Aberdeen the previous day and popped into Trump International on my journey up to Cruden Bay. I thought nothing could beat those…..I was wrong. As soon as we pulled up into the car park we experienced the ‘wow’ factor. Even the car parking spots well of a very generous size which I know will mean something to most of us who have our car doors jammed against each other in most car parks.
The staff were welcoming and friendly.
Though what makes this place special is the fabulous course, both challenging and beautiful. Old Tom Morris has built a masterpiece; no two holes the same, just enough heavy rough and gorse to help keep you focused on those well laid out fairways.
The other fantastic experience here are both the views from the course and from the Clubhouse. I think you can actually see eight of the greens from the Clubhouse bar/restaurant, sea views and all.
