Edzell
Edzell Golf Club lies at the gateway to the Grampians
in the foothills of the Angus Glens. Indeed the
mountains form a backdrop to this lovely heathland/parkland
course. The course is located in the beautiful village
of Edzell, midway between the cities of Dundee and
Aberdeen.
The original course was laid out in 1895 by Bob
Simpson, top golf course architect of his day. In
1933/34 the course was re-designed on recommendations
made by the famous James Braid and remains virtually
unchanged to this day.
Today
the course is situated in some 128 acres and has
been complemented with the addition of the 9 hole
West Water course in 2001.
The course
was considered to have no weaknesses and that "golfers
visiting the Angus area can't afford to miss what is
one of Scotland's true hidden gems".
