Overview:

The Balgownie Course was designed by Simpson/Braid. This links course runs essentially out and back along the North Sea Shore, the outward nine through some wonderful dune formation, the inland nine of the plateau. An excellent balance of holes, strong par 4’s, tricky par 3’s – with the 8th surrounded by 10 bunkers the signature hole – and two classic par 5’s. The ever changing wind, small screens and very challenging finish make Balgownie a test for every level of golfer.

Bernard Darwin wrote: “It represented a huge gap in my golfing education not to have played Balgownie until now. Much more than a good golf course – a Noble Links.”
