![]() The Masheter family has owned Mains of Aigas farm since 1960. The courtyard cottages were developed through the years to supplement the farm activities. Our 9-hole golf course at Aigas opened for play in 1993. It was thought that it could complement our already well-established holiday cottage business and make use of some poor agricultural land overlooking the farm. Our friend and golf course designer, Bill Mitchell PGA of Grantown on Spey, had other ideas, however, and quickly dismissed the idea of constructing a course on steep terrain and opted for the more naturally undulating land on the valley floor which has proved perfect for the par 33 course. Large greens and wide undulating fairways are a popular feature of the course and some of the beautiful scenery surrounding Aigas can be seen by viewing each hole on this website. The course has matured well during the first 15 years of play and we strive to keep it well manicured at all times. We have added a number of water features, bunkers and recently a well-equipped practise area adjacent to the clubhouse. We are always looking to make further improvements to enhance this challenging course. Aigas Golf Club was formed in 1994 and members enjoy a variety of competions throughout the summer months. The Junior section has progressed well this year with the new practise area completed and under the excellent guidance of the Junior Convener, Mr Jack Kirkland who has been honoured for his tremendous work as one of the top three coaches nominated for the Daily Mail Volunteer of the Year Award 2006. Having a small club at Aigas enables visitors to enjoy a game at almost any time, although booking is advisable for play at weekends and for large groups. We always aim to offer our holiday clients and golfing visitors a warm welcome and are happy to provide any information on golfing in the Highlands.
