Forres Golf Course, Grampian in Scotland

The 800 year old Royal Burgh of Forres can be found in the Highlands
of Scotland nestled between the Moray Firth to the north and Farquhar
Hills to the south. Forres Golf Course celebrated its centenary year in
1989 and like a fine wine continues to improve with age.
The original 9 holes were designed by James Braid and in 1912 Willie
Park was enlisted to construct the new layout of 18 holes. The course,
which has hosted the Scottish Professional Championship, is remembered
mostly for its spectacular views of the surrounding countryside, its tree
lined fairways and the infamous 16th hole, aptly named The Pond, which
provides a watery grave for many a stray golf ball. There is a practice
ground on which to hone the swing and one of the best stocked golf shops
in the north of Scotland.
The apres golf can be enjoyed in the pleasant surroundings of the clubhouse
which commands a lovely view over the course.
