What the club says: Whilst golf has been played at Leven since 1820, the game dates back to 1846 on parts of these links with the current configuration coming into being in 1909.
From the start of the round the golfer will be conscious of the fairways running along the valleys between these old dunes; it makes for superb definition and a true test of links golf as the slopes and bounces of these natural obstacles come into play throughout the round. They are most noticeable at the first (where the green sits on a ridge plateau), the second, thirteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth. Elsewhere they come into play as obstacles to be played over at holes five, seven and ten and they provide the lie to steeply sloping greens at the fourteenth, fifteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth holes. The strength of the course lies in its fine variety of quality “links” holes with undulating fairways, revetted bunkers, wonderful approaches and large true running greens that provide a stern test for even the most accomplished putter.
At the end of it all lies one of the finest finishing holes in golf where two well struck shots are required to reach a target of quite epic proportions and slope over the yawning demonic Scoonie Burn which winds its way around the right and front of the green.

Incredible links course immaculately prepared with equal challenge and opportunity. A tough course as a new player to it with some blind shots. Very friendly peopleReviewer Rating

In April and so dry.
It overcast but not heavily and threat of rain. A slight cold wind that swirls. All the greens are fast and the fairways burnt out. Bunkers are all pot bunkers and very penalising. A real test and I went out in shorts. After 2 or 3 holes my hands were like ice but warmed up. Good start to the Fife '23 tour.Reviewer Rating

Leven Links is incredible! It's always in great condition and can be a tough test of golf. The wind was blowing when we played, but that just made it more fun. The 18th hole is also often referred to as one of the hardest holes in Britain.

Course Review
The layout here is decent but the condition of the course leaves a lot to be desired. The fairways are lacking grass and the tees are shabby. The greens are a 6/10 at best. The bunkers are by far the worst part of the course. Several should be roped off as GUR and the fact they are not leads to some farcical situations.Reviewer Rating
