Fortrose & Rosemarkie Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Fortrose and Rosemarkie Golf Club is a James Braid design that measures nearly 6,000 yards from the tips. It's not long, but the golf course's small, deceptive greens and strategically placed bunkers will keep things interesting.
Players will also have to reckon with the public road dissecting the course, the proximity of the sea to eight of the holes and the thick swaths of gorse that punish wayward shots. The par-5 fourth hole is one to watch out for, arguably the toughest challenge on the course.

Beautiful course pace of play good greens in great condition
Classic Links Course
Exceptionally fun to play.
Proper links golf
Course for time of year was in excellent condition. Always a challenge with the wind . Greens so true, nice to make some putts on proper greens.
I liked it so much
That I'm now a member of Fortrose and Rosemarkie. The club secretary worked with me very well as I waited to find out about a tournament entry at another course; when I actually got into the tournament, he shifted my tee time three days later. The weather was miserable when I arrived, with plenty of wind and temperatures in the 30s, but I enjoyed the golf, the layout and the scenery so much I decided to join the club! And one of my rare birdies on #5 didn't hurt either. And when I decided to join, that same club secretary made the process very easy.
loved the course
The wind was very windy! but the sky was blue & the views were fantastic. I didn’t score too well on the first 9 - getting used to the course & the wind and scored much better on the back 9. I thought that I’d hit a great shot on the par 3 towards the lighthouse only to watch the ball get blown about 50 yards off course! It was wonderful having the sea on both sides of the course and we even saw dolphins in the water by the lighthouse. Definitely recommend this experience.
Fantastic Fun
Hugely enjoyable course, in a stunning and truly unique location. A hidden gem and good value on a hot deal!
