One of the few local attractions in Rosehearty, it has an information board and takes about a half hour to walk round. The sheep and goats are all in pens on both sides.

We had a very pleasant visit to this small hotel for a meal. It is just like your local pub which gives it an old fashioned atmosphere when you arrive and then you are taken through to the dining room at the back.The owner was very friendly and helpful and she looked after us well. The meal was excellent (the trifle was fantastic) and reasonably priced. The couple who own it are obviously working very hard to build their business up and I do hope they carry on offering such good food and service.

This small museum is packed full of all sorts of information about the history of Fraserburgh and the region. Many displays include activities for children and adults alike. New information and exhibits are always being added so even if you've been there before it's worth a return visit. A great resource for the community and visitors to this part of Scotland as well. The adjoining Lighthouse museum and restaurant are added attractions.

We visited in January 2017, so quite cold but the sun was out and we were under clear blue skies. Very clean beach and there are so many walks. In the summer, I guess you can sit and sunbathe and forget about any strains and stresses of modern day life. The town is near by for a meal and drink afterwards.

Great condition, superfast greens, weather fantastic. Good quality course at reasonable prices.
Stock up on fluids as its nine out, nine back. Clubhouse food is as you would expect. No proshop or pro on site.
Adequate parking, but pay attention when crossing the busy, fast road between clubhouse and first tee.
