Royal Aberdeen Golf Club - Silverburn Course
Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire
Royal Aberdeen Golf Club in Aberdeen, Scotland, was founded in 1780 as the Society of Golfers at Aberdeen and became the Aberdeen Golf Club in 1815. Until 1888 members played on the Queen's Links close to the city before moving across the River Don to the links at Balgownie. The Course was originally designed by the Simpson Brothers, Archie and Robert of Carnoustie and later re-bunkered and lengthened by James Braid to ensure our classic links kept pace with the modern game.
The Silverburn Course at Royal Aberdeen provides excellent links golf alongside the championship Balgownie Links. While shorter, Silverburn offers a true test of links golf with strategic challenges and beautiful North Sea views. The course is popular for its excellent value and quality.
