Weekend with family
Course was playing off winter tees, with mats to be used on fairways and first cut. 1 hole was out of action but there were 18 holes. The course was in very good condition despite the weather recently and the greens were some of the best I’ve played on. New winter layout was easy to navigate and the holes are varied and enjoyable. Sunny when we played, all enjoyed it and it was excellent value. Would recommend
Great course
First time playing here!
Had a very friendly welcome in the clubhouse before we played, from all bar and waiting staff, and had a lovely lunch before we went out to play.
Enjoyed the golf and thought the course was in great condition. The pace of play from hole 8 onwards was unfortunately very slow, which was a little frustrating.
The first 9 holes and the 2nd 9 holes are also like two different golf courses! Enjoyed the front 9 a lot, but found the back 9 very challenging, although the scenery is spectacular!
Would come back although I may just ask if I can play the front 9 twice next time! ;-)
Beautiful course. Well maintained.
Grass all in excellent condition.
Course takes a major change in character at hole 10, becoming very rugged and wild.
Beatiful course and beautiful views.
Great condition in April
Pro very helpful. Straight out to play, good pace. Some interesting holes and long pat 3 to start and finish.
Fantastic Course
It's probably the 4th or 5th time I've played the course but I think this might be the best condition I've seen the course! Greens were like putting on carpets which for October is extremely impressive.
Had a lovely meal in the clubhouse as well.
Will be back next year for sure
A great Al round course
Fantastic course, some tricky holes requiring good course management.
Fast and true greens.
Great park and heathland course
Lovely course in east driving distance of Aberdeen. Interesting mix of parkland snd heathland course, but as it was so dry, played much like a links course. Greens, fairways & tee boxes in great condition. . Great customer service and there are buggies ( power carts) and hand carts available for those who are flying in. Nice terrace overlooking the 18th green with great views.
Cracking challenging course
Played Aboyne for the first time this week, well set out course in stunning scenery, course was in excellent condition and staff very pleasant and accommodating, will definetly be back again.
Our round
Lovely golf course, with a great mixture of golf holes.
Would definitely play it again, the par three’s are a test for any golfer with some par fours that are just stunning to play.
Four played it and we would all play it again.
Lovely course
Great condition lovely layout. Well maintained ,very scenic. Well worth a play
Good round
Members very welcoming. Winter layout a little confusing .. No one in pro shop the day we played , lady in office very helpful.
