Craibstone Golf Centre is situated on the SAC’s Craibstone Estate
which is located 5 minutes from the Granite City of Aberdeen at the
airport roundabout on the A96. The highly acclaimed 18 hole golf course
opened in the summer of 2000 and has matured exceptionally well in
the short time it has been fully playable.
The 18 hole, par 69. Parkland course measures 5780 yards and is
a fair and enjoyable test for all levels of golfers. The course rewards
accuracy off the tee particularly at the difficult 11th, 12th and
13th holes where you could score well. The greens have also earned
a reputation for their excellent conditions and are true and fast
adding to a golfing experience that will have you coming back for
more. The long par 5 at the 5th is a sure test of strength and accuracy
while the short par 3 at the 7th is a ‘hole in one’ opportunity.
The narrow gully on the 11th requires an accurate drive to achieve
a good score here – but accuracy can be rewarded with a chip
and putt for a birdie.
The water at the 12th can be tricky and the stunning views over the
city at the top of the 13th are second to none.
The fairway’s are fairly open at the moment while the young
tree’s grow to their full height.
A warm welcome is assured to all visitors and corporate parties
when you visit Crabistone. Fully catered packages are available
all year
round.
