Reviews
From the moment we arrived we were made very welcome. We got held up in horrendous traffic due to the Leuchars air show so phoned ahead and were told to relax they would push the T time back which was excellent. Bacon rolls and tea on arrival (remember to take 2 rolls as you will be charged for 2, I only took 1 and had to pay the fixed charge!) Nice locker room- then to the practice area- 50 balls for £3.50. Practice range was well equiped- Short game area, bunkers, putting green and driving bays hitting of real turf not mats! The course itself was a pleasure to play. Can't say there was a hole that I disliked. The condition of the course was fantastic, fairways and greens were like carpets, the greens were like lightning. Played the course in quite a stiff breeze, so it made reaching the long par 4's in two quite tricky but when driving with the wind at your back it flew for miles. Greens were very tricky will lots of run off areas and false fronts and swales, but fair. A good shot is rewarded. Would love to go back again. I would recommend this course to anyone. Views from the clubhouse are amazing. Have fun, I did.
