Founded in 1905, the original concept of Banchory Golf Club was to provide the villagers of Banchory with a place to play golf. As Banchory has grown so has its golf course and recently the course has been extensively remodelled by renowned Scottish golf course architect John Souter. Set above the bonnie banks of the Royal river – The River Dee – our picturesque par 69 – 18 hole golf course layout offers a challenge to golfers of all standards. Though not over long at 5801 yards – don’t be fooled. Strategically placed bunkers, mature native trees and the “magnetic” River Dee provide obstacles that can test even the most accomplished player.
