A fantastic course, sheer understated quality. Loved every minute of it. Expensive but you have to pay for the best..

Glorious, rolling landscape with plenty of elevated tees and wonderful views up the Fife coast. Generous fairways but the early season greens were a little bumpy.

Fully lives up to its billing as one of the top UK courses. It can be tough in places but always rewards good shots and leaves you feeling it was an enjoyable challenge. The magic of the course is that it feels like it's always been there despite being a relatively new links. A true gem

Best course in Scotland. The views are unrivalled and each hole is different and challenging in its own way.

Golfshake Team ReviewThe best course I've ever played. Admittedly the weather was beautiful, the sun was shining and there was a bit of a breeze but from the time we arrived we were treated wonderfully. The course was immaculate, the tees, fairways, bunkers and greens were just perfect and the pin positions were just set on the tricky side that made you think about every approach shot. Every hole had the wow factor as soon as you reached the tee box. Difficult to say what the stand out holes are, can't think of a weak one to be honest. OK, it's expensive and it helped that we were treated but I'd certainly save up and play this one again iF i COULD.

Probably the best course in the world. The majority of the americans in St Andrews all agree that this course is better than Pebble Beach. It was simply breathtaking and an awesome experience. All the holes are stunning with glorious vista's.

I played here on a corporate day, the course condition, club house and facilities are superb. The staff are extremely helpful and very friendly, with nothing being too much trouble. The views are fantastic, but with all that wind the course is a lot different from the tree lined Surrey course I am used to.

I love my golf like the rest of you. But this is easily the best course I have ever played in my life. Played in October 2012 - couple of weeks after the Dunhill Tournament - and the greens were flawless. My only problem was that the round went too quickly - and I would have had a caddie if I'd realised my other 3 playing partners were using them also - as local knowledge is essential. Or you do some serious research before you play! Staff were excellent and fantastically friendly. Loved it - and will be back despite the cost.
