About Royal Aberdeen Golf Club

 

Royal Aberdeen Golf Club in Aberdeen, Scotland, was founded in 1780 as the Society of Golfers at Aberdeen and became the Aberdeen Golf Club in 1815. Until 1888 members played on the Queen's Links close to the city before moving across the River Don to the links at Balgownie. The Course was originally designed by the Simpson Brothers, Archie and Robert of Carnoustie and later re-bunkered and lengthened by James Braid. Hawtree & Company are now engaged as the Club's architects to ensure our classic links keeps pace with the modern game.

 

About Cruden Bay Golf Club

 

A stunning links course, it has been recently placed as the 50th best course in Britain and Ireland by "Golf World". Initially laid out by Tom Morris in the 19th century, it was revised by Archie Simpson into the layout it is today and is very much a traditional links with humps, hollows and numerous blind shots. Offering spectacular views of Slains Castle, it is a picturesque and challenging test of golf.

This beautiful course is a par of 72 and a maximum length of just over 7400 yards and provides a serious yet extremely enjoyable test to any golfer including those with a low handicap. Trump International follows the traditional pattern of two out-and-back looks of nine holes and all 18 thread their way enchantingly through the dunes, rising to find views of the sea and coastline, plunging into secluded valleys, and offering a sequence of excellent landscape, panoramic views and wildlife habitats surrounding the golf holes.
