Course Description
By Matthew Haggerty (matthew.haggerty@unn.ac.uk)
Kingussie golf course has to be one of Scotland's best kept treasure in golfing terms.
The course is set in the most beautiful surroundings anyone could ever ask for, with the breath taking Cairngorms only a few miles to the west of the course. Each hole has views that would be fit for any postcard advertising the beauty of Scotland.
The course is kept in almost championship condition by Michael Clarke and his green-keeping staff all year round, and lives up to all the expectations of a tremendous course, certainly all the times I have visited it throughout the years.
The course is filled with challenging holes throughout, with both some long holes and also some very short. Each hole provides its own challenge that makes you intrigued to see what the next hole is going to give. The course is quite hilly in the first nine, then the inward half is much flatter so the course tests your golfing skills to the full.
When you finish your round, you are greeted with the hospitality of the clubhouse staff. The clubhouse has a shop that stocks all the useful accessories for a great round and also has a pleasant bar/lounge area where meals are served throughout the season - the meals are good as the golf, brilliant!!
If you are thinking of golfing in Scotland or what's more the Highlands, Kingussie Golf Course should be the first on your mind. It's certainly always mine!
I don't think anywhere else in the world will you find a golf course with the amazing scenery, quality of golf and the hospitality that Kingussie golf course provides you with.

I had a party of six 14 year olds and two adults at Kingussie on Sunday past. We were extended a warm welcome from your club and the food at lunch time was excellent. The course was superb and challenging and one of our boys managed a gross 73. It is a pleasure to know that there are places in Scotland where young up and coming golfers are made welcome, at a price they can afford, and where they can play golf on quality courses like Newtonmore and Kingussie.
Congratulations on your friendly attitude and your excellent course. We will be back.
