Proper links course which was challenging but enjoyable for our group with handicaps from 12 to 18 Very tight fairways so accuracy of the tee is very important A few blind tee shots so tips from very friendly pro in the pro shop before our round were most helpful Would strongly recommend including as part of a trip in this area
The golf course at Murcar Links was founded in 1909 by the then golf professional at nearby Royal Aberdeen, and was later refined by the prodigious James Braid. The links land is punctuated with gorse, whins and devilish bunkers, and the winds that whips off the North Sea certainly determines the character of the layout.
