Very Good See all 6 reviews

Home to the world's 5th oldest golf course, Montrose Golf Links offers one of the purest links experiences in Scotland. The 1562 links and Broomfield links combine to create a fantastic 36 holes of golf making it the perfect place to enjoy a full day of links golf in the Angus region of Scotland.

Montrose offers the front nine along the coast and then you move a little more inland to play some exceptional holes on the back 9. The 16th & 17th will offer anyone the chance to ruin their score, long Par 3 then a gorse filled banking awaiting a pulled tee shot at the 17th, with a 2nd shot to a tight raised green, links golf at its best.

Golf Courses at Montrose Golf Links

1562 Course

The 1562 links course bares all the hallmarks of pure links golfs. Undulating fairways, fast greens and a prevailing coastal wind all add up to one of the toughest challenges on a golf course. However, the introduction of new tee positions means that the course is now much more accessible for the higher handicap golfer.

Course Information

Opened for play 1913

Tees

White 6,585 yards SSS 72
Yellow 6,203 yards SSS 71
Red 5,622 yards SSS 73

Broomfield Course

Where as distance is required to score well on the 1562, the Broomfield course requires a good touch and accuracy. Whilst the course does not appear to hold the same challenges as the 1562, the natural undulations and hazards means there is more than enough to ruin a scorecard.

An interesting links course that takes you out to the cliffs so the wind plays a big part. The dry summer has had an impact on the fairways but this is pure links golf, so expected and the greens were in great nick. We got caught behind a PGA event so play was slower than we would have liked but it did not affect our enjoyment at all. A special shout out to the pro shop who managed to get us an earlier tee time

Round ended up taking over 5 hours, partly due to fog but mainly as we were held up a large group of players from Holland who were to up to course standards and drinking all the way around. Would expect course to manage this better

Not a great course - basically a field going back and down playing the same course

Great historic golf course, but unless the Council do something about the sea erosion not only will they lose the course, they’ll lose the bloody town too!

This is wonderful golf course in design location and history The greens this year however were extremely slow and therefore awful to putt on despite having a good coverage of grass.. very strange why they were left so long and a bit dissappointing
