Great visit to the championship course at Cardrona
Been a few years since last visited the course but glad I persisted and came back. The greens were brown and broken in a few places but we firm and fast. The course was well maintained and with very few divots. The staff have done well to maintain it over the forced closure. I recalled the challenges from my last visit and the course presented me with equal difficulty this time round. The was a even spread of players and despite being on foot I was not chased down by any two ball buggie pairing. Ready for another round tomorrow.Reviewer Rating

All alone
This is the fourth time I have played here, very challenging and long course.Fairways in excellent condition, Greens were patchy, but playable.
Only seen another 3 golfers during my round. so obviously there are a lot of people missing out on this course.
Staff in shop very friendly and welcoming.
I will be back to play in very near future, this would be my membership course if I lived closer.
No rating for food / drink or practice facilities as these were not open.
Loved every visit to this course.

Never met staff so friendly.
Lady at the front desk was ever so friendly, helpful and made for a great start to the day. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the golf course, some beautiful holes with stunning scenery. Beware of the 7th, it may just catch you out! Will be going back for sure.Reviewer Rating

Can be wide and forgiving from the tee in places and the course should hold up all year round.
Nice mixture of holes offering a great experience for high to low handicaps.

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!!!

Another enjoyable day at Cardrona
Back at Cardrona for another round with my son. Looked after well by Mark this time who was very welcoming. The course itself continues to improve with new sand in all the bunkers ! The greens which were always an issue in the past are almost back to how they should be and with a little more time will compliment the rest of this beautiful course set up. We will be back !!Reviewer Rating
