Craig Paterson, Edinburgh rated 2 out of 5
Reviewed Mar 23 2015
Played the course in March 2015. Course and greens both in decent nick given the time of year.
It's a quirky layout with several dog legs, hills and valleys. Many of the par 4s are short with driver not required and still only a short iron in, but that was partly due to us using some forward tees due to a competition the previous day. Holes 8 & 17 are bizarre, both dog legs at right angles with a large valley across the fairway where even a long and straight drive will leave you with a longish blind second, invariably with your ball well below your feet - not fun. I did enjoy 5, a nice par 4 to a sheltered green, 9, a dog leg par 5, and 11, a dog leg par 4 where you should cut the corner with your tee shot.
My biggest gripe however was the cost - £37 for a Sunday morning in March. If we'd played a week later it would have been £47. In my view the course simply isn't good enough to merit green fees of that amount and although the guy in the pro shop told us the membership had increased this year id be surprised if numbers were high. Shame, at £20-£25 I'd have considered returning later this Summer but for the best part of £50 there are more appealing options.

Course is very hilly and has a lot of blind shots to greens. The markers are also poorly situated around the course.
However, the greens were in excellent condition and proved to be a really good test.

This was my second time of playing the course and I was surprised at the number of changes and improvements since 2010. The only negative I can come up with is the bunkers, they were not in keeping with the other very, very high standards.

Just played the course today and would recommend it to anyone who likes a challenge; greens are superb and I beleive they are available throughout the winter. I asked about the blind spots on holes 8 & 17 and was please to note that poles are going to be erected to signify greens. Pro was very helpful and gave me a swing tip that worked a treat ...... wouldn't accept a tip. Will be back
