The Mount Ellon course has been dramatically
shaped by the last ice age and is laid out over two drumlins. Namely, elongated
and large "mounds" of material deposited under the ice sheet which covered Scotland
about 200,000 years ago. This enabled the course architects to create a mixture
of demanding shots and aesthetically pleasing holes. 

The drive from the third tee illustrates this
perfectly. The shot is from the north side of one Drumlin across to the
south side of another making it a daunting prospect for the average golfer.
The 18th is a great finishing hole, which doubles back and has a burn
as an additional hazard. Visitors are more than welcome at the warm and
friendly clubhouse.
