What the club says: Burntisland Golf House Club possesses a character quite unlike that of any other course in Fife, perched as it is high above the sea and incorporating to great effect an industrial legacy of abandoned quarries.
At 5993 yards it is not long but even so is remarkable for the small area into which it has been squeezed. To make the most of the available land a few holes crisscross and a number of greens lie in the path of subsequent tees. A degree of alertness and care is therefore required if you are an unfamiliar visitor.

In very good condition - however not quite what we were expecting (our bad - not theirs!) A very quirky parkland course next to the sea - probably would be better played on a less windy day!

A great challenge
Great day out. Course was in fantastic condition. Some really quirky holes and blind shots that can be a challenge for first time visitors, but thoroughly enjoyable and would definitely return. Pro shop and club house staff were really welcoming and friendly as well.Reviewer Rating

What a fantastic golf course. A great layout with holes winding through valleys, which reward you with incredible views over the Forth Estuary.Very well looked after course, with nice fast running greens.
Well worth a visit. Could be in the “hidden gem category”

Quirky Hidden Gem
For anyone visiting Fife Coast, either on the way to, or coming back from St Andrews, this little course is well worth a visit. A challenging quirky little course, with some incredible views along the way. Very friendly little club house, inviting, with exceptional service and good fare for a golf clubhouse.Even if your golf is bad, just enjoy the views.

Enjoyable, relatively striaghtforward course with great views across the Forth to Edinburgh and the bridges.

Excellent, unique
Built around a number of old shale quarries, Dodhead offers a real challenge to golfers of all abilities. A range of length on the par 3s and 4s adds interest, as do the sloping greens. Above all, the views are simply spectacular: Edinburgh, the 3 bridges over the River Forth and a backdrop of 'The Binn', a volcanic plug to the north of the town, are all superb.Course is very well presented and maintained. Staff in the very well stocked Pro shop very helpful, food and drink excellent. A great day out.
