Super parkland course. I have just returned from a Mixed Golf Week which is fantastic value. They also do two others through the year - a gents and a ladies week. Recommended!

Very wet underfoot

The biggest drawback for Duff House is its inability to dry out after rain. It is a pleasant place to knock around but can be a bit 'samey' on the up and down par 4's

(Round played: Oct 2021 - Score: 100 Handicap: 19)

No more 2-4-1

This was my favourite course of all time till the decision to stop half price vouchers and increase the price for a days (2 rounds) golf to more than 10% of annual membership fee. I guess I will never again return to "the best manicured greens in Scotland". No more Duff House food and no more Duff House drink for us. I therefore match my overall rating to my finances

Hello Boabie, I am disappointed to read your review. We have stopped many of the vouchers and deals outwith our control and we offer our own deals for groups and our opens are in keeping with market expectations. I hope you can join us at one of these in 2019 as these will be in keeping with pricing you talk about. Many clubs and the national body, Scottish Golf, are reviewing many of these deals and many are following. I hope to see you at one of our Opens. Best of luck for the Golf in 2019.
