Hidden Diamond at the back of Lochee.
Extremely enjoyable course with some blind holes that are very interesting off the Tee. Placing is very important off the tee for these holes, otherwise you get cut out from the green for your second. A couple of beautiful scenic holes that do the course justice as the best in Dundee. Loved it and will deffo be back again next time I am up in Dundee.Reviewer Rating

Hidden Gem in Dundee
This is an amazing private course. Some of the holes are quite simply outstanding. Some very difficult approach greens where you must lay up unless you are either A, Very confident in your approach or B, can hit the ball very sweetly to gain the required distance. Several blind holes where you have to play a placement style shot for your second. Go play it and rest assured you will not be sorry you did.(Round played: Jul 2020 - Score: 93 Handicap: 12.2)

Hidden away but worth finding.
This is a lovely course set in the middle of a housing scheme where its hard to believe that a course of this quality is hidden away. Some great thoughtful holes that require a bit of thought. Some beautiful scenic holes and without a doubt then this has got to be worth a try.(Round played: Jul 2019 - Score: 90 Handicap: 13.1)

What a great inland course. Some great holes, the 2nd Dog Leg. The 4 th Blind. the 7th is stunning. the 11th over the water. I could go on and on. If you ever get the chance then this has to be a 100% goer. Fantastic hospitality also from the pro shop. Great bunch of guys. Overall this was an amazing day. A must do if in Tayside.(Round played: Jul 2018 - Score: 93 Handicap: 12.3)

The course was in great nick. Greens very fast and true. A stiff test from the yellow tees, where a number of par 5's from the white tees revert to very very long par 4's. A big test of golf in a stiff wind.

Great scenery, good layout, greens excellent, lots of bare patches on fairways,lots of areas which should be repaired or marked ground under repair, no point of having rakes in bunkers as nobody seems to use them(greenkeepers included), certainly not worth the money as far as i am concerned. Mike
