The Moray Firth Is Already One Of The Best Places To Play Golf In Scotland, But There's A Lot Going On At Cabot Highlands And Elsewhere Right Now...

Nairn Golf Club 4th hole.

Much is afoot on the golfing front in the north of Scotland. The second Trump course at Aberdeen is under construction; the prospect of a course at Coul Links just north of Dornoch rumbles on, with the Highland Council voting in favour of a revised planning application in December 2023; and Royal Dornoch broke ground on its ambitious £13.9 clubhouse project the same month.

The Moray Firth midway between Aberdeen and Dornoch has been busy, too, with Cabot Highlands (née Castle Stuart), Nairn, Spey Bay and Fortrose and Rosemarkie all catching my eye for various reasons. Some queried my wisdom when I decided to head up there in January 2024 but not Golf Monthly photographer, Kevin Murray, who was very much up for it when I found an unbelievable BA flight and car hire deal.
