Spey Bay Golf Links and Hotel

The golf course was in excellent condition for this time of year, especially the greens were very nice to putt on.

First time playing and went up in winter play and the course was on full greens and tees with no mats, it was super condition for the time of year from tee to green.

With it being first time took a good few holes to get used to the challenging tight fairways, a more strategic play is needed instead of length as it’s easy to get caught out.

Layout and holes are all challenging in their own ways.

A great little half way hut to grab a snack and even sample their own home brewed beer, nice little touch.

Fully enjoyed the round and course and would recommend it for anyone, we will be back to play again in the summer months for sure

Course was alright, pretty straightforward to follow around which was good, few tricky holes . We basically had the course to ourselves which was also good. The clubhouse looked to be modern and well looked after. The course was ok but personally I wouldn’t pay the full £80 to play this course. I Spoke with a few people who were sitting outside the clubhouse and they had the same thoughts about the price. If the price was lower then I’d probably feel differently about it as there’s courses in the area that are cheaper and better in my opinion.

Good challenge but not golf buggy friendly the mountain's in the fairways are a challenge but we enjoyed it

i wanted to play Spey Bay before it is closed and "remodelled". I booked it online. When I arrived they could not find my booking. Fortunately I had my reference. The comment was made you have paid the new price (£65). I was extremely disappointed at the condition of the fairways. From many of the tees you could not tell where the rough ended and the fairway began. I have played 9 other courses in the Moray area recently and Spey Bay is by far THE WORST. If the price was £35 I would have no issue but I am sorry to say £65 does not represent fair value for money. I will not be returning

Weather was excellent and course couldn’t have looked better with the brilliant yellow of the gorse. Such a pretty picture.

Nice Course, simple layout, straightforward, would go back play another day. Greens in good condition, fairways good usual Hilly lynx fairways. Nice afternoon round.

Great value for money, course very quite and in good condition.

What a gem of a course! This course has good bones and with a bit of TLC could be fab

Really enjoyed round.

Course still in early season condition but several interesting holes. Good value.

Played on a Monday in January. Unfortunately Club wasn’t open to get a scorecard but expected in January. Having been many times before however, I can say staff and facilities are very good. The course condition is good but you can expect a few areas with rabbit scrapings etc. For someone who loves golf and tradition however, condition is good overall and it’s easily overlooked as the layout is amazing and enjoyment playing this is second to none. Traditional style links bumpy fairways with great greens of all shapes and sizes. I’ve never not enjoyed Spey Bay. It’s a hidden gem and it’s very under played by locals but if you are visiting the area. It’s so worth while going for a game and something to eat. Amazing views and a great little village.

Turned up with 11 year old son to play for the first time to be told they only take cash! Nearest card machine was 4 miles away!! Then had to pay £10 extra to get a tee time online! Will not be returning

It’s gone to pasture, good for grazing animals and a stroll on the beach but not a playable fairway in sight.

The course is really well layed out

A real eye opener

I was very impressed and was would recommend it to anyone on the North East Coast golf trail

Lovely friendly golf course and a true test, don’t reach straight for you diver on every par 4 as that would most definitely punish your card.

Thoroughly enjoyed our round. Barely anyone else on the course so flew round.

By no means a perfectly manicured resort style course but that added to the enjoyment for me. Wonderfully natural bumpy fairways that were for the most part generous enough. Greens quite slow but ran nicely enough. Couple of cracking wee par 3s. Notably the infinity style green on the 8th.

For the cost (£25) excellent value for money.
