Excellent and challenging course. Untraditional club house but it delivers well. Played on Easter Sunday when weather was quite superb. Probably more of a challenge on a windier day!

Pete / Widnes rated 4 out of 5
Reviewed Oct 26 2013
This club has a basic initial layout to the car park and club house. On entering the club itself we were greeted by very friendly staff, all full of knowledge on the brief history of the course / owners. The starter took us to the 1st tee and we were offered the choice of tee to use for the day. The fairways are well manicured with perfectly sighted bunkers to pick off anything off centre. they were also extremely difficult to get out of. The starters two tips to us.....chip out sideways when in the bunkers and beware of the greens. Greens were immaculate, very true and designed to a very high standard. I can possibly see slight drainage problems in the next few years as some of the fairways held water in medium sized puddles. The rough is damaging to your game on this course but easy enough to spot your wayward balls. There are some good dog leg holes with excellent placed burns to catch you out. Beware the 1st green, awesome slopes. The 3rd is a tough par 5 where you will have to maximise your lay up skills. The signiture 11th hole is a real treat at just 120 yards but miss the green and your looking at a bogey at best. 12/13/14 are fairly straight forward then another par 3 gem at 15. Playing anything from the 165 yards mark, this hole has an awesome bunker structure at the front. Hit them at your peril. If you do manage a par on 15, run to the next as fast as your legs will carry you then face the toughst hole on the course, running alongside the train track and measuring some 430 plus. A perfect bunker layout again hinders your drive. Dundonald Is a course that needs skill and some intelligent plotting around. Overall, a very enjoyable round for the £40 we paid. Handicap 18 Score on the day in wind and rain 93.

Fantastic golf course , each hole secluded from each other by dunes. The condition was excellent but beware of the bunkers they will destroy your card.

First 9 holes are very good and fair, the back nine is more like a mining bing with bunkers that are impossible to get out of. The cost of hiring a buggy is exorbitant £30 for just one round--- Dick Turpin wore guns when he robbed people.

Very good links course. Greens, fairways and tees all in great condition. Rough not too punishing. Very difficult golf course and not easy to score well. Greens huge and undulating. Would be a great course to be a member of if you were a single figure handicapper.

Possibly my favourite golf course anywhere that i have played.
Course is always in great condition, i played in November last year and the conditions would put many a course in the summer to shame!
Its a tough but fair course, lots of room off the tee but you get some real punishments for going offline. The rough is very sensibly placed, probably the most sensible rough that I have come across, so if you are slightly off the firway you find your ball quicky and the round can keep flowing.
The course always feels quite due to the dunes, some not entirley natural, on most holes, this only adds to the experience.
The 3rd, 6th, 9th, 11th, 12th, 14th and 18th are all great holes, even when compared to the others on the course, each offering a different challange each time you play it.
The course is usually doing a residency offer or a last minute deal so some really good value rounds of golf can be had here.

Staff were Great. Course a bit wet in places. A lot of divots going unrepaired and pitch marks on greens making them bumpy. Still a bit early in season. would like to see it in the summer season. Great venue
