Great views and great layout. For a high handicapper like myself was a stiff challenge and as previously said, most time using woods/long irons so anything slightly wayward is gone. Long walk round but worth it with the views.

This is an excellant course in a beautiful setting and what should have been a nice relaxing round of golf was spoiled by three so called golfers before me who had no idea what Golf Etiquette is at all. As a single player normally you would think a three ball would have the common decency to let you play through and especially from the 2nd hole but no so lets hope no one has the misfortune to experience what I had too. Apart from this it is well worth a visit to Cardrona and especially on a nice sunny day.

Scott, Fife rated 4 out of 5
Reviewed Aug 9 2014
As a fan of Dave Thomas course's I was looking forward to playing this course and I wasn't disappointed. The fairways were in tremendous condition an my only complaint was that 3 or 4 were just too wide and bland with no trouble until you reached the green. They could have done with either a couple of bunkers or even just some mounding. The greens were in good condition although a little slow. The changing facilities are good however could benefit from a tumble dryer to dry wet gear. Whilst I realise the hotel has a captive market in that part of the world the price of food and drink was a bit ridiculous. A Coke and an Irn-Bru £5.20 and then a Burger that starts at £12.50 and if you want a slice of cheese and bacon they are £1.25 each, for a slice of cheese!!!! would definitely play the course again and my overall rating is based on the course.

Good challenge for a short-hitting mid handicapper. Most fairways quite wide, but shot to green always provides a challenge with slope and/or bunkers. Only a couple of holes (like the 1st) where it would really help to know how to play the hole with previous experience. Fairways and greens in good condition. Greens a bit slow but pretty true.

PaulWhitehead - Harrogate rated 5 out of 5
Reviewed Jul 15 2014
Stunning views and a beautiful and well laid out course. Walk between greens to tees saves on confrontation from wayward shots and the scenery is breathtaking, if you enjoy that sort of thing. We played the course in an open comp as a texas scramble, which was a good way to enjoy the course for the shorter hitters. The greens were slower than some we had played in the area but were still true.

Reviewed Apr 21 2014
This is a lovely course in gorgeous surroundings. The greens were smooth and quick, and the fairways are wide, which is good because the course is long: 6555 yards from the yellows.
The only slight downer is the number of stones in the bunker, but I guess the way to avoid them is to avoid the bunkers. Also, a few people mentioned the length of walk between some of the greens and tees. According to my GPS it was a 6.5 mile walk round the course, but I say who cares when you have scenery like this.
Loved this course!!!
