Style Links
Par 70
Length 6219 yards
Slope N/A
Rating N/A

This is a visually pleasing undulating links course with a long beach on one side. Measuring 6,219 yards from the tips, Spey Bay Golf Club is a par 70.

Gorse and heather line the fairways here, and the beach creates a natural border on some holes - though it won't come into play unless you're completely wild off the tee.

No. 8 is Spey Bay Golf Club's signature hole. The small green sits atop a hillock, so you better be accurate or risk seeing your ball go tumbling down. This pretty much goes for all the holes at Spey Bay, which requires a thoughtful shot off the tee and a light touch around the greens.

Holds up well in torrential rain!

Would love to go back and play when it is dry, played 18 in torrential rain, course held up well, greens excellent! 3 hours for 18 holes, soaked to the skin but loved it!

Outstanding !

Only a small clubhouse which was closed anyway and nobody around except a painter, decorating the outside, who informed us there was nobody around ! However, this was the only issue as we had pre booked a bargain with Golfnow. Glorious views over the Moray Firth towards Buckie in one direction, and Lossiemouth in the other. What a course ! Links at it's best ! Superb greens, true and fast. Fairways that run down gulleys bordered by thicker grass, heather and gorse. A little water in spots would be the only improvement I would make.

Great Links Course with a number of picturesque holes

Great value for only £15 but on a two of the holes it seemed like birds had destroyed the fairways. The greens were slightly on the slow side but all in all I would recommend to a friend.

I have been on holiday many times to this area but never have played this course. I have a single figured handicap and have played all over the world on championship courses and paid a lot of money to do so. So I was a little bit hesitant when I got Speybey for £18. What a surprise. This has to be the hidden gem of Morayshire. Just wish I had found it 20 yrs ago when I came on holiday to the area. If you read this review do not overlook this course you will be as surprised as I was. This is an other true links course that you will find great enjoyment in.

Excellent course at Spey Bay

Helpful and friendly staff in the club house. The course was not at its best due to a long dry period but still very enjoyable to play. A very piece full and quiet part of Scotland to play golf.
