Golf

Make the North-east your client’s next golf destination for its historic and scenic courses and fabulous food and drink to enjoy along the way. Along its 165-mile coastline are iconic links courses, set against towering dunes and designed by legends like Old Tom Morris. Inland, parkland courses are nestled in forests, castle grounds, and estates, including Braemar, the UK’s highest course, near the Cairngorms.

VisitAberdeenshire runs a comprehensive ‘travel trade ready’ programme to ensure that local tourism businesses understand your world, and as such, in addition to golf, the destination offers a wealth of bookable travel trade products for both group and FIT.
