Stunning Spey Bay golf course up for sale
SPEY Bay Golf Club has been put up for sale.
Joint agents Shepherd Chartered Surveyors and Strutt & Parker have brought the golf course, clubhouse and caravan park to the market.
The spectacular 18-hole links-style golf course, with clubhouse premises together with a former driving range building and a camping/caravan site, is located on at the mouth of the River Spey.
Designed by the legendary Ben Sayers, Spey Bay Golf Course was opened in 1907. The late Prime Minister Ramsay Macdonald was a member at Spey Bay and the magnificent club championship trophy which remains at the club, was presented by him.
Located five miles north of Fochabers on the eastern side to the mouth of the River Spey, the area is home to a coastal reserve which includes Scotland’s largest shingle beach and the Scottish Dolphin Centre.
Neil Calder, partner in the Inverness office of Shepherd Chartered Surveyors, said: “This is a fantastic opportunity to own a true links golf course in a stunning location.
"There are various avenues that new owners could explore to enhance the existing business including development potential, subject to appropriate planning consents.”
Euan MacCrimmon, Senior Associate Director at Strutt & Parker, added: “There is a modern club house, which is licensed, and the campsite provides 30 plots made up of hardstanding pitches comprising 14 residential pitches and 16 towing pitches.
"The site caters to caravans, motorhomes, and tents with attractive coastal views.
“The campsite is currently licensed from April to October, however, there is scope to trade all year round and space to increase capacity.”
Offers over £750,000 are invited. Interested parties should contact the joint selling agents on (01463) 712239/719171.
