The championship course at Spey Valley is a great test of golf, so much so that it's hosted several professional events in its short lifespan.
Perhaps the most memorable hole on the course here is the par-5 fifth, as it measures over 630 yards from the back tees. If you can make a birdie here, you've done incredibly well.
The course has hosted the European Challenge Tour on several occasions, and was host to one of Brooks Koepka's lowest rounds, a 62, which broke the course record. That score will certainly take some beating.
The final hole, which is played beside the River Spey, is a test of nerve, as you must take your drive over the out of bounds.
This is also home to a fantastic hotel, the Macdonald Spey Valley.
