What the club says: Cullen was founded in 1870 and designed by Old Tom Morris. The course is centrally situated between Aberdeen & Inverness on the Moray Firth Coast. The course is 4,597 yards long and has a Par of 63.

Cullen must lay claim to the most remarkable site for a golf course in Europe. There is not a lot of room within this amazing environment for Cullen’s 18 holes, with the course playing it’s outward nine close to the cliffs before doing an about-turn with the inward nine playing back at beach level. At 4,597 yards long, it does manage to fit in a 510-yard par-five 15th.

What a course

Extremely scenic links course, ?the shortest true links? in the world, with several extremely testing holes amongst the many par 3?s. Definitely a must play especially as all the staff are so helpful and friendly, enjoy!

Had a wonderful time playing here. So good that my partner and I had to play it twice!
Kate greeted us and made certain we were set for our round. We spent a fabulous day at Cullen and would do it again!

Joyous costal course

Challenging for even the best of golfers, but brilliant for novices as well (like myself!). I can imagine playing this course would provide a different challenge ever time.

A small course with everything. Elevated tees, elevated greens and blinds shots over enormous fairway rocks. Well maintained and friendly clubhouse

This is something well out of the ordinary! Highly reccomended if you like par threes that are hugely entertaining and spectacular views thrown in. Very good value for golf and the proper golfers grub in the very welcoming clubhouse. Almost like stepping back to the 70s and I mean that in a good way! This place will make you smile.

A beautiful setting for a course on the Moray Coast. Some spectacular holes around the turn, but because of the constrictions of the tight layout, you can feel a bit "under fire" at certain times.

A little gem of a coarse not that long but a bit of a challenge especially the 2nd ,12th and 13th and if there is any sort of wind, with great views over the Moray firth where you can often see dolphins. Good facilities in the clubhouse and friendly staff.
The greenkeepers keep the coarse in great condition although it can get abit soggy across the top in winter .Well worth a visit !
