Newburgh-on-Ythan Golf Club was founded in 1888 and was originally a nine
hole course laid out on the links located along the River
Ythan estuary and the coastal dunes. The 18 hole championship links front
nine is characterised by undulations and hills, with elevated
tees and greens requiring a range of shot making. The
inward nine demands accurate golf from tee to green and is the
epitome of the typical Scottish links course.
The course at Newburgh is noted for the speed and quality of its
greens, its playability regardless of the weather conditions and
its magnificent setting.
