Longhope

This entry was part of an extensive article on the merits of going to Longhope in 1906

There is a fine hotel for the accommodation of strangers, while for the golfers there is a capital golf course. (Aberdeen Journal 14.9.1906)

Unfortunately, at the moment, this the only information we have on a golf course at Longhope, and the course might even have been at Melsetter as suggetsed in another article.
