The course is only 4,400 yards long with 10 par 3 holes, but it is quite challenging - particularly when the wind is blowing. A few holes are placed high up on the hill with an amazing view over Moray Firth. On other holes you need to play over and around rock formations. No handicap restrictions. |

A spectacular, flat links course with some holes right on the edge of the sea. Fairways are relatively wide and bumpy with plenty of gorse, and greens are quite small; in addition few but strategically well placed bunkers. No handicap restrictions. |

The North East of Scotland is renowned for its rugged beauty and the course at Royal Tarlair is no exception. Situated in the town of Macduff, the course commands panoramic views of the coastline with the village of Pennan made famous by the film "Local Hero" only a few miles from the clubhouse.
A cliff top parkland course which certainly presents a challenge for the more serious golfer, and offers enjoyable golf in an ideal setting for the not so serious. A warm welcome awaits all visitors to Royal Tarlair and all we ask of you is to enjoy your golf while here.
There are some spectacular holes here, including the famous 13th (Clivet) any ball short of its 152 yards par three is gone forever.

This is a flat, sea-side course with wide fairways, not much rough, relatively few but interesting bunkers and large, fast greens. At the first glance many get the impression that it would be easy to get a good score on this course. That is not the case. No handicap restrictions. |

This is a relatively hilly sea-side course with an amazing view over the sea and along the coast line. Fairways are relatively wide, but there is quite a lot of rough mainly consisting of gorse. Many of the greens are placed cunningly in the terrain and can be very fast. And the wind is quite challenging on this course. No handicap restrictions. |

A spectacular, hilly links course in the middle of the dunes right by the sea. Fairly wide fairways but also a sometimes quite challenging rough. Not too many bunkers. Exiting, fast greens placed cunningly. No handicap restrictions. |

A very beautiful park course designed by the Scottish golf course architect, Dr. Alister Mackenzie, who later went to the USA where together with Bobby Jones he designed the beautiful Augusta National course.
The course is placed in the park, which previously belonged to Duff House, and alongside the river Deveron. Fairways are boardered by the many trees and very characteristically are the huge bunkers and the very large greens. No handicap restrictions.

This course is the highest placed golf course in Scotland and is thus quite unique. It is winding its way up and down the mountain and on a clear day the view over the highlands is spectacular. Even if it is relatively short, it is quite difficult to get a good score. Challenging. Greens are small and can be extremely fast (or somewhat slow) with curves in all directions. No handicap restrictions.
This is a short, appealing in-land course, which is placed beautifully in a river bed 400 meters above sea level in the midst of the mountains. The course follows the river Clunie Water, which plays a challenging role on more holes. It is not a hilly course in spite of the setting and it is not particularly challenging, but several holes demand precision if you wish to score. No handicap restrictions.
The course is a flat but spectacular and quite challenging park course with many interesting holes and large, impressive and fast greens. The town is charming and attracts a lot of tourists.
