Venue

Fortrose & Rosemarkie Golf Club

Fortrose, Highland, Scotland

Fortrose & Rosemarkie Golf Club is the 15th oldest recorded golf club in the world, established in 1793 on the Chanonry Peninsula in the Black Isle, approximately 20 minutes from Inverness. This Scottish links championship course was redesigned by five-time Open Champion James Braid in 1932. The course enjoys a dramatic setting with breathtaking views over the Moray Firth and is situated adjacent to a dolphin colony. The layout exemplifies traditional links golf characteristics across its championship course design. Fortrose & Rosemarkie has received significant recognition, including winning Scotland's Best Golf Course/Venue at the Scottish Golf Tourism Awards in 2024, with previous wins in 2017 and 2018. The club ranks among the top 30 fun golf courses in Great Britain and Ireland, and within the top 50 courses in Scotland according to Golf World. The course has hosted prestigious events including the World Hickory Open Championship in October 2024. Documentary evidence indicates golf has been played at Chanonry since 1702, predating the formal club establishment. The combination of historic pedigree, scenic Highland location, and championship-calibre design creates a distinctive golfing destination.
