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.

Bucket List

This course is on most people\'s bucket list, mine included, so I was delighted to get to play it. We got a good deal, but it was still the most I have ever payed for a round of golf, by far! The facilities and the service could not have been better - it really is a pleasure to roll up to places like this and get treated so well.\As for the course, many of the holes are outstanding - visually stunning, well-designed, and challenging, but fair for all levels. However, there are a few holes that are completely plain and forgettable, which surprised me given the reputation the course has.\I\'m glad I have ticked it off the list, and if you get the chance you certainly should. But, in all honesty, I won\'t go out of my way to go back again.

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.

(Round played: Apr 2016 - Score: 86 Handicap: 14.6)

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.

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.

Reviewed Jun 15 2009

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.

Cost

I’ve played all the St. Andrews courses now apart from Kingsbarns,it looks amazing but is any course worth the green fees they charge.the old course was £90 pounds which is good valve having all the history that comes with it.kingsbarns £285 because it’s claim to fame is the dunhill.surely the prices are the wrong way around.
