Welcome to ABOYNE GOLF CLUB

The long-established 18-hole Golf Course blends with the rolling countryside in the village of Aboyne on Royal Deeside, Aberdeenshire. The immaculately maintained course set in beautiful highland surroundings harbours what we believe to be one of the finest tests of golf in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire and North East Scotland. 

Golf was first played in Aboyne in the 1870’s. The first course of 9 holes was played on the village green. The Club moved from the village to its present site in 1905 The layout of the golf course designed by Archie Simpson, Professional at Royal Aberdeen Golf Club remained virtually the same from 1913 until 1981 when 5 new holes were added improving the course to be the fine challenge it is today.

Our course provides a fine test for golfers of all abilities. It presents a rich variety of memorable holes making the most of the natural variations in the terrain which is a mix of rolling parkland with inviting fairways and elevated links-like heathland with tighter targets. Mature trees and water are in play on many holes.
Our superb setting by the Aboyne Loch has splendid views of the Dee valley, ranging from Clachnaben to the distant peak of Lochnagar. You may be distracted from the shot you face by the visit of an osprey, or the sighting of terns or a heron fishing the shallows of the Loch.
