About

Holes 18
Type Private
Style Parkland
Par 70
Length 6123 yards
Slope N/A
Rating N/A

For many years a nine hole course, the course was extended to its present eighteen holes between 1987 and 1989. A par 70 course, measuring just under 6200 yards, it presents a varied and challenging test of golf, requiring accurate play off the tee and a good short game on the approaches to the small and tricky greens. The course has few hidden hazards, and what you see in front of you is what you have to conquer.

The first and last holes, containing slight doglegs, are much more testing than they would appear from the card, and if you can start and finish with two fours, you can be well satisfied. The Par 3 11th hole looks more intimidating than it really is, but requires a clean shot over the water. If you duff it, you are likely to be dropping another ball at the side of the pond.

Great course

Never heard of this course until found listing on Golf Now . Would highly recommend all standard of golfers to give it a try. Great value for money a hidden gem. First and eighteenth share a fairway so suggests at some point it was only nine holes. Spectacular views of mountains and surrounding area. Some interesting holes to remember. Pro very friendly and couldn't do enough to help our party with a few accessory problems on our trolleys. Bar staff and members we met also very welcoming. A great day out .

An idyllic day out

A fantastic day at Oldmeldrum. The professional Hamish is quite a character and after a brief chat asked for my opinion on the golf grip of one of the high handicap members (whom I ended up joining for a game). We had a few laughs - but after the unusual start (the first fairway is shared with the 18th fairway) - the course was a very pleasant surprise. The fairways were in excellent condition and most holes tree lined. However the generous fairways kept play moving well. Greens were good (if a little on the slow side) and the holes were varied with some water hazards, subtle doglegs, gentle undulations throughout the round.
In what was possibly the hottest day of the year _ Hamish provided drinks for us out on the course after Ben phoned in to the clubhouse requesting some fluid replacement and nutritional sustenance. Overall remarkably friendly. Only downside was the early closure of the clubhouse bar for a post match drink.

Brilliant Course

Enjoyed my round at Oldmeldrum. Friendly staff in the pro shop giving good advice before the round as it was my first time visiting the club. A brilliant course, and would be a test for every golfer. Holes are shaped brilliantly with some small & hard to hit greens meaning you have to be 100% at it. Pace of play was not an issue when I played. Conditions were brilliant and course is clearly well maintained by the green keepers. All in all an enjoyable round and I will definitely be back. This course also have the makings to be a brilliant venue for a “golf day” and I am sure the staff would look after every visitor. I have also passed on the recommendation to a few friends to make sure they play this excellent course.

Great value round

Played a solo round today. For the price it was great. Very easy to navigate around as a first timer. Green and fairways in great condition. A good challenge. A few spots where it’s quite tight with overlapping tees and greens etc, which held things up at times but not a huge problem if you’re not in a hurry. Pro in the shop was first class. Shame I’m not local or would come back for sure.

Course was in excellent condition. Some stunning views of Bennachie on a few of the holes. One thing to watch out for was the bar is closed on a Monday so couldn’t get food or a drink after the round.

Played on a drizzly but pleasant day at the end of March, the facility, pro shop, staff and course were all brilliant. Course in great condition and the professional was extremely welcoming as were the members. Will definitely play again if in the area.
