Oldmeldrum Golf Club

Well maintained course with some scenic views. Be aware of holes crossing over and double green. Pylons also in play on some holes.

First time here on what was a French day.

Very welcoming staff, the course is in no way a monster but laid out for a really enjoyable round. In great condition with lovely scenery, it has some indications but is not a challenging walk.

Coffee machine and home baking post golf.

Will play again

Weather was great,course was in excellent condition and greens were fast.Would recommend this course to anyone.

Enjoyable round of golf, course conditions very good considering the winter weather that has caused so many problems at other North East golf courses.

Overall course conditions where good except the greens, can’t say if it was due to recent weather but certainly not running true, however throughly enjoyed the course and would recommend trying it out.

The course layout is much better these day except for the 1st and 18th sharing a fairway . The trees lining the fairways are now more of a hazard as they are much bigger . For the time of year, the course was in good condition and would be better if the greens had some better attention , cut and rolled . I used every club in the bag .Enjoyable 3hrs 10 min to get round .

Played here while up on a work course, and wanted to get a round in whilst in the area, oldmeldrum did not disappoint, play off 19 myself, but this course had a bit of everything for me, stunning scenery, course was really well kept, challenging greens, one of the nicest courses iv played. The lad in the shop as well was a good laugh and sound as anything

Second time playing here and it's ace, cracking layout and the clubs hop guy was really friendly. We will return for sure. Watch out for power lines on the 18th tee as I drove off and hit the wire hahahaha. Great course and value for money

Tee time was double booked again. This happened the last time we was out 2 x at 10.52
With both groups booking through golf now Greens a quite poor, but I get it’s start of the season so they will improve

1st time playing Oldmeldrum golf course, and it was in fantastic condition. The club pro was very informative and helpful. There is a couple of holes that you cross over with an over hole, but everyone was very patient and polite, so it's not an issue. I would definitely play again. Hidden gem of a course, greens immaculate.

With 1&18 and 15&16 fairways crossing it can be a little confusing for the first timer, but our admonishments were friendly enough. Plenty af variety, with good fairways and greens in excellent condition considering the drought.

Probably better played when quiet, as a hectic first hole isn't ideal for the scorecard!

Lovely little course with some well laid out holes and beautiful views.

Having researched golf courses in Aberdeenshire I thought I would try out oldmeldrum after hearing some friends talking about it.
The fee was excellent value (£10) and so there was very little to lose in my opinion. Unfortunately this was partly due to playing off of mats on the fairway but still on full greens.
On arrival the staff were all very friendly and registration was smooth. The course however has a very short and uninteresting layout bar one or two holes. The first hole and the 18th in particular are possibly two of the worst holes I’ve ever played. They feel completely detached from the rest of the course and encroach on each other, making it very easy to hit another player.
From 2 onwards the course improves slightly however the layout is very uninspiring with lots of parallel fairways. The highlight is a small pond that is visible after the 3rd hole and forms a centre point on the golf course. There is a very interesting par 3 that forces you to hit over it . Sadly due to winter tee rules this hole was shortened to 100y and the thrill of the hole was taken away, but that is not the fault of the golf club. Most of the winter tees are placed far too far forward in my opinion, shortening most par 4s to approx 300y. Perhaps in summer it would be better.

The overall condition of the fairways was surprisingly good and it made me wonder why mats were necessary. Some greens were fine and some were cored but that is not to be unexpected in winter.

All in all for £10 it’s not a bad place to play if you are at a loose end, but for any serious golfer you would be much better off paying slightly more at a more upmarket course. Even the council owned courses in Aberdeen are more interesting, although they are some of the best value for money courses I have ever played

Nice holes, well laid out and very few blind shots. Fairly flat course.. this is a good course to play when in the Aberdeenshire area.

Nice little course with some pleasant features.
Staff very friendly and helpful. All in all, an enjoyable experience.

First played this course in July and played here every week since. Very well kept, and always in great condition. Challenging but good course for high handicap players too. Only bad point is the 1st hole and 18th share the same fairway but apart from this its a great course.
