McDonald Golf Club

Toggle location map

McDonald Golf Club, Ellon is set in the heart of Aberdeenshire countryside, 16 miles north of Aberdeen, this scenic eighteen hole golf course provides a memorable golfing experience for all standards of golfer.

The parkland course is named after its benefactor Sir James McDonald who, in 1926, gifted the old woodlands to the people of Ellon. The original nine hole course winds its way through this magnificent forest with its stately trees and beautiful rhododendron bushes. The well established first nine has a natural stream that twists and turns across the course and features on almost every hole.

We welcomed Cuthbert's Catering to McDonald Golf Club in August 2022.

Gordon, Terry & staff are always happy to tailor any catering requirements to suit our members and visitors needs.

Through the year we have Sunday carvery, afternoon teas, theme nights, BBQ, and many more, check out our facebook page or website for current offers.
