Course Description

Designed by James Braid this natural links course is a typical Scottish links laid out over an area well protected by the substantial sand dunes that skirt the length of Fraserburgh Bay.

Thanks to the generosity of Lady Saltoun twelve or fourteen holes were laid out on the current site in 1891. In 1922 the course was extended to 22 holes, largely following the design of James Braid and while a number of improvements have been made over the last 68 years much of the course remains true to his concepts.

While the club installed an automatic watering system in the early 1970s it has practised a watering regime aimed at producing traditional links greens and was gratified to see this policy was endorsed by 'The Way Forward' was endorsed by 'The Way Forward' report produced on behalf of the Royal and Ancient.
