Cruden Bay GC is a historic (1899) famous links course set in huge dunes right on the sea with magnificent panoramic views. It is a unique quirky course, fun to play, rated 52 in the World and loved by many golfers.

Cabot Highlands - Castle Stuart *Top 100 Course
Castle Stuart is rated 55 in the world and is home to two recent Scottish Opens. The course is known for the Rumple. Many links’ courses are known for their uneven or 'rumpled' fairways, and the ‘rumple’ is part of charm of links golf at Castle Stuart.
