This beautifully maintained 9-hole parkland course represents
a challenge to golfers of all abilities. With a standard scratch score
of 68 for men (71 for ladies) the 5900 yard layout provides many a test.
The course and its surroundings are famous locally for the rich variety
of wildlife. A pause on the 5th fairway is frequently rewarded with the
sight of soaring buzzards, so golf is not the only pleasure of a round
at Tarland.

If
you hit it straight, the 1st is an easy start but be careful at the green,
as you could roll through and into the large waiting bunker. The 4th and
5th holes are the most notable on the course. On the 4th, a long strip
of trees lies close on the right with a wee burn crossing in front of
the green. It's a gorgeous wood enclosed hole to approach. The fifth is
a lengthy par three of 236 yards. There is no real trouble apart from
the distance, which is more than enough.

Many have set out to "tame the course", but few succeed which is why most
are easily persuaded to return and retest their skills. During the months
of April through October, the clubhouse is open daily from 8.30 until
at least one hour after dusk. A bar menu is available daily and a full
meal service can be obtained in the evenings at the weekend. A practice
area is available and may be used by visitors to the course.
