| About: |
Established in 1898
and designed by one of the grand-masters of golf
course architecture - James Braid, "The Boat"
is not only a demanding test of sporting skill
but also a magnificent setting for the game.
The view from the clubhouse,
over the 1st and 2nd fairways and beyond, to
the Cairngorm mountains - with such distinctive
features as the Lairig Ghru and the northern
corries of Braeriach - is incomparable, certainly
within the realms of Scottish golf.
This Highland grandeur, depending
on the day, can inspire high achievement or,
in the more common event of disappointing performance,
affords the comfort and consolation of communing
with nature in uniquely attractive surroundings.
Popular with visitors, from both home and abroad,
the course has become firmly established as
a "must" for those enjoying a golfing
tour of the Scottish Highlands.
