The Braemar golf club is the highest 18 hole course in the UK. Situated at the foot of Glenclunie the views are breathtaking. It is also one of the few courses not to use sand bunkers, but instead has banks which can be just as tricky. As a par 65 it is a wonderful challenge to the holiday golfer. Braemar Golf Club does not have a website at this time, but more information can be found at
