Superb Golf on a non windy day
What a superb course. we got lucky as there was no wind. I am told that when the wind kicks up then it is brutal. Some really good holes and overall if you can keep it straight then you wont go far wrong.Reviewer Rating

A true links experience
If anyone is looking for a true Links experience, without having to pay “silly” prices, then Arbroath is a fantastic place to visit. Traditional Links golf in every sense, fast bouncy fairways, slick greens, play out with the wind, then hang onto your score coming home.A must visit if in or around Carnoustie, less than 10 minutes away. Great practice area, fantastic food in clubhouse.

Nice Links Course
Not as well known as other links courses close by but this course gives you a good test. The first three gives you a false sense of security as these are quite open, but as you get further away from the clubhouse the course narrows and becomes a great test. Some really nice par 3s!Reviewer Rating

Part Of an amazing package
We had an amazing package for the day. Coffee and bacon roll on arrival. Soup and sandwiches for lunch and then a 2 course dinner after playing 36 Holes. An amazing flat course that plays lovely as long as the weather stays fair. Some great holes and I would recommend this anytime to anyone. Some great par 3s that are not the easiest to hit and stay on. Overall a fantastic day and agreed by all 10 of us on the day.Reviewer Rating

Home course
Not the longest of courses at 6200 yards from the medal tees but the strong links wind makes up for it. Tight fairways and small well guarded greens. Great new pro in Craig and his assistant Conner, friendly club house, great food from the caterer , driving range, practice green, buggies, push carts and clubs for hire. Tee times open to all 7 days a week,(Round played: Mar 2019 - Score: 67 Handicap: 4.1)

Decent course with a typical links layout. Straight out and back. Small well protected greens. Rough can get up in the summer time. 6200 yards from the whites but theres always a good strong wind. So expect 200 yard drives ans 250 yard 4 irons(Round played: May 2018 - Score: 75 Handicap: 0)

First time i have played at Arbroath, in the wind and rain but made no difference to the course, the course was in good condition and the staff were friendly, as were the members i talked to, Club house was nice inside clean and friendly. only gripe was a slow 3 and 4 ball in front for some reason they were waiting way too long to play off the tee even when the group in front were WAY out of there longest hitters reach, standing gassing without the offer of letting us play through even tho our group would have quickly been out of there range.(Round played: Jul 2017 - Score: 97 Handicap: 20.3)

Course in beautiful condition. Greens true and good pace. Old layout but bunkers and burn make you think about your drive on every hole. Rough is cut back and helps with quick play and gives you a chance to find a wayward shot.

This course is a real gem in Angus.
As someone that resides in Angus, and is new to the game, I think this course is often overshadowed by some famous neighbours and would urge anyone in the area to give it a try.
Played a quick round on impulse on a Friday afternoon after work with a money-off voucher from the local paper.
I couldn't be more delighted I did: I almost had the course to myself. Straight fairways that led to very well-kept greens for this time of year. Condition of the course seems great all round.
This was my first Links course experience. I enjoyed it immensely, despite the foggy weather, and will definitely be back soon.
Professional at the Proshop was exceptionally friendly.
