Auchmill Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Offering inspiring views of Aberdeen and Aberdeen Airport, Auchmill Golf Club is a municipal golf course with a world-class pedigree. Originally built in the early 1970s as a nine-hole course and later extended to a full 18, Auchmill was designed by the triumvirate of Brian Hugget, Neil Coles and Roger Dyer, meaning the course was laid out with the experience of a top golf course architect (Dyer), a former Ryder Club player (Coles) and a known British pro (Hugget).
Auchmill was designed to take advantage of its unique topography, meaning golfers will be challenged by a variety of lies andinteresting hole placements. Four par 5s will have long hitters reaching for their big guns, while tricky par 3s and challenging par 4s will have golfers of all levels working to put down a good score.
This wooded parkland course that plays to nearly 6,000 yards will not just give you interesting holes that are aptly and cunningly named - like "The Frog" and "The Quarry" - but it will also give players a great golfing experience for their money. With green fees ranging from £15 to £20, Auchmill Golf Club offers golfers a great golfing experience without denting their wallet.

Just off the 4th tee “very nice” NOT Photo submitted by Steve5755845 on 08/09/2020
Auchmill - not what it used to be
Pretty rough fairways and tees some walking between tees but no indication as to where to go. Would play again if desperate.
Greens are unplayable
Nice course. Sadly the greens are an absolute sandy, stone covered mess at the moment (September 23). Hopefully that issue will be sorted for next season. Otherwise good value and nice place to play
Awful condition
They should have paid us to play there. Shocking condition for a golf course. Fairway didn’t even exist, greens in shocking condition and grass cuttings all over the course. Played here few years ago and course was good but now it’s just awful. I will never play here again even if it was for free.
Poor
Fairways were like a first cut of rough, greens in poor condition, bunkers had weeds growing out them. Use to enjoy this course but it’s terrible now
Average
Course is in alright condition just needs a bit more love and some investment and will be very good. Value for money is excellent (it’s cheap but you’re not playing a well maintained course). Course layout is actually decent, and gives golfers the challenge of some tricky blind tee sheets and also some lovely driving holes and short par 3’s.
Greens like fairways
Greens were terrible, same length as fairway. It’s a shame the course is a lovely one just needs the greens looking after
Interesting course
This course has some amazing holes but it isn’t looked after. Lots of rubbish around intakes bunkers.
The greens are bumpy and patchy. Such a shame as it could be better
Needs some love
The course itself has the potential to be a good course although it needs some TLC. Lots rubbish in the rough in the 3rd hole. Empty bottles lying around and the number of dog walkers on the course is off putting.
Some challenging holes although also hard to decipher where the next hole is.
Good value on a decent course
It was a great day for a game of golf, so was looking forward to playing the course. Course was in good condition and was well looked after. Just a pity the greens were spiked and sanded. Otherwise a enjoyable day out.
Enjoyed the early morning round
Only had time to play the front 9 but nice course with some tricky holes. Would definitely play again
Big improvement
Played a few times here and will be joining next year now
Greens had suffered a bit last time I played but that has been sorted to a real good standard, course is well kept and staff very friendly
Really good value for money here to pay and play
Im the membership was cheaper to join in July I'd be joining now
Rough is very rough. Bit of tidying would be a good track. Forgiving I lived there 35 years ago and only 9 holes back then'things have changed and so has managing the course Onwards and Upwards.
Surprisingly Good Layout
This was my first visit to this course which isn't far from home. I prepaid my round which was just as well as the clubhouse and starter hut were closed. I had to fish a used card from the bin as the new ones were locked away in the starter hut.
I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of holes and the course was generally in good condition.
I lost a few balls as the trees and rough is quite punishing for wayward shots.
Good course, greens under repair
Good course, have enjoyed the few rounds I have played in Auchmill. Very challenging course and a few great Par 5’s to get after. Greens under repair at the moment so would have liked to have seen a discount on the fees. But overall course was tidy, fairways nice and tight.
