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.

Played here as the third course of our three day golf break, and the best was saved till last !!!

Excellent facilities, so get there early to use the free range.

Not a lot to say about the course except take your time and enjoy it, we did !!!

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.

Stunning scenery on a beautiful golf course. For me as an 18 HCP every hole has the potential to destroy your card and plenty did, but take nothing away from a fantastic experience. The most difficult course I have played but can't wait to improve and return again. If you have a chance to play this course, do not pass on it.

This course has the potential to be an excellent course, the only downside were the greens that were patchy and occasionally grassless.

The pros know of the issue but the owner wants a specifc type of grass which is getting over powered by another type and creating a poor surface.

Some beautiful holes and the par 5 12th is one of the best I have played anywhere.

Good course but if they sort the greens out then this will be an excellent course.

This is the most beautiful course I've played alongside Gleneagles. I played 36 holes on the same day and it was worth every penny. Also listed as one of the top 5 worldwide courses you can play.
