There area few courses even in Scotland that are as
memorable or as striking on the eye as Cruden Bay
Golf Club. Set high on the country’s north-east
shoulder, this remarkable links layout stretches
between the delightful little fishing village
bearing its name to the wild rocks and skerries at
its furthest point with views of the North Sea
always before you.
But it’s the wild duneland that will first catch your attention. These high sand hills stand like a protective barricade between course and sea with deep, velvet valleys sometimes protected, sometimes not from the tussles of wind. To play it you rapidly discover one of Scotland’s most enigmatic, idiosyncratic courses that you will undoubtedly fall for. It does not come without quirks and foibles; hidden greens and blind drives, a roller coaster of excellent holes, each as different and as cunning as the one before. Each time you play Cruden Bay, you unlock another secret. This is Cruden Bay’s charm and one round is rarely enough. Cruden Bay is not a long course with a standard scratch of 70 but this is more than made up for by the intricacy of the holes and sheer splendour of their settings.
