Forres Golf Course is situated in the heart of Moray a region famous for its wh**ky distilleries and beautiful scenery.

The course itself is a wonderful parkland golf course with spectacular views and aimed at golfers of all abilities. Forres is one of Scotland's oldest small towns, and also one of its most attractive. Situated in just off the A96 about 27 miles east of the Highland capital of Inverness, the town boasts impressive parks and gardens with outstanding floral sculptures as well as its own 18 hole parkland golf course. Designed by Open Championship winners James Braid and Willie Park the Par 70 course is just less than 6300 yards from the tips and although not the longest by today’s standards it provides a good test for golfers of all abilities. Well known for its spectacular views over Findhorn Bay and the Moray Firth, Forres Golf Course is a beautifully maintained, picturesque and interesting layout that will satisfy all who play it. The course is full of memorable holes; none more so than the 16th, aptly named ‘Pond’ this is a spectacular hole where a watery grave awaits errant tee shots. In its recent history Forres has been honoured to host events such as the Scottish Professional Championship, the Northern Open, and the Scottish Young Professionals Championships - a testimony to it’s quality.

From the Archives ⛳ The Early Days of Forres Golf Club

A fascinating glimpse into the history of golf in Forres!

This historic photograph shows the former Cluny Hill Hydropathic Hotel and the original Muiryshade golf course, which was designed by renowned course architect James Braid in 1903.

Forres Golf Club was established in 1889, initially playing on an 18-hole course between Kinloss and Findhorn. In 1903, the club moved to Muiryshade, before relocating to its present home at Muiryshade in 1904.

More than 120 years later, the landscape may have changed a little bit, but the club's golfing heritage remains an important part of its story.
