Nice Course ,worth a visit
This is a nice course, can be tricky and you've got to plot your way round, which I didn't do at times , we had glorious weather which helped , the green were fast and i had a bad day on them( I'm not a good putter). What I will say if you get the chance play it.Reviewer Rating

Kinghorn G.C. is short, but very tricky. Lumpy hills and really undulating, with lots of uphill, downhill and sidehill lies. Weather had been very wet yet the greens were still very playable. Good views across the Firth of Forth, from top of the course!

Kinghorn course is very different from other courses in the area. Short in length but difficult to score on,
good for testing your shortgame skills, with small undulating greens and fairways. Good views of the Firth of Forth from the higher parts of the course. All in all, a very interesting day!

A course worth playing
The course is very well looked after. The greens are immaculate but very fast. In windy conditions some greens are extremely difficult. It is a short, challenging course with a good number of interesting holes. Terrific views over the Forth on a sunny day. Well worth a visit.Reviewer Rating

What a disappointment
Played Carnoustie Championship & Burnside courses 20&21/06/19. Grossly over rated and expensive, £220/£75. Burnside in very poor condition, patchy and bumpy greens, bare lies in first cut and rough. Championship not much better although it appears that an effort has been made to the greens, divots everywhere, bare lies. Maybe a hangover from The Open ?Reviewer Rating

Fun and challenging course!
Myself and 3 friends visited 18/5/19. After 2 holes we realised we?d never played a course quite like it. The terrain is wild on a few of the holes and some of the green positions are surprising (double check the card) No water hazards
Some challenging short par 4s and some long par 4s! No par 5s. Nobody seemed to care about the dull weather. We definitely want to visit again, it was only the weather that let it down, because we couldn't fully appreciate the views over the forth.Reviewer Rating
