Fraserburgh Golf Club — known locally as Corby Links — is the seventh-oldest golf club in the world, founded in 1777 on the clifftops above Fraserburgh harbour. We provide private golf transfers to Fraserburgh from Aberdeen, Inverness and Scottish airports, with timing planned around your tee time.
About the course
Corby Links is a tight, windswept 18-hole course running along the clifftops where the Moray Firth meets the North Sea. At around 6,300 yards it is short by modern standards, but the exposed position and near-constant wind make every club selection a decision. The greens are firm, the fairways fast, and the rough punishing — old-fashioned links golf in the truest sense.
What sets Fraserburgh apart is the absence of modern resort polish. There is no clubhouse hotel, no halfway house, and no queue. You arrive, you play, and the course rewards thought over power. The sea views from the back nine are spectacular, and on a clear day you can see across to the Caithness coast.
The drive from Aberdeen
The 50-minute route from Aberdeen follows the north-east coast through farming country and small fishing towns — Ellon, Peterhead, and then the final stretch into Fraserburgh. Your driver will collect you from your hotel, airport or station and deliver you to the club in time for your round. After golf, we can take you south to Cruden Bay or Peterhead for afternoon golf, or back to Aberdeen for the evening.

The course is short at around 6,300 yards, but the exposed clifftop position and constant wind make it a testing round even for experienced links golfers.
Is Fraserburgh worth the drive from Aberdeen?
Yes. The 50-minute drive from Aberdeen follows the north-east coast through fishing villages and open farmland. Fraserburgh offers authentic, uncrowded links golf at a fraction of the cost of nearby championship courses, and pairs naturally with Peterhead or Cruden Bay for a full Aberdeenshire golf day.
Can you combine Fraserburgh with other courses?
Fraserburgh pairs well with Peterhead (20 minutes south) for a north-east coast double, or with Cruden Bay (30 minutes south) for a links and clifftop combination. We plan routes and timing around your tee times so there is no rush between courses.
When is the best time to play Fraserburgh?
May to September offers the longest days and mildest conditions, though Fraserburgh is exposed to North Sea weather year-round. Summer evenings here are particularly memorable with long golden light across the cliffs.
