“Murcar Links is as fine a links course as you could wish to play” (Paul Lawrie, 1999 Open Champion) and adjoins Royal Aberdeen to its south side. With Cruden Bay a mere twenty minute car drive north, Murcar is without doubt, “a hidden gem” (Peter Alliss, TV Commentator & Former Ryder Cup Player). The three of them are a hattrick of golf courses not to be missed by the discerning golfer. Not for the beginner or the faint hearted, Murcar Links is a par 71 (sss 72) natural Championship links, which represents a truly challenging test of golf. To play it requires every shot in the book and if the wind is up, a few more besides!
