Piperdam Golf & Leisure Resort (formerly known as The Osprey Course at Piperdam) is so named because during the summer months, Ospreys nest at the loch that the course surrounds. The event has become such an attraction that the Piperdam Osprey Centre, an observation facility for visitors, was built. The course has a parkland style layout with water hazards and out-of-bounds stakes. Golfers are quickly introduced to the challenges of the course with the par-3 first hole, which requires a careful tee shot over water in order to reach the green. In addition to the scenic course, Piperdam Golf & Leisure Resort offers a 12-bay driving range as well as boat and bank fishing on the loch.

Excellent Day on a nice course

The day was excellent if a bit breezy. The course was fairly quiet when we teed off (10:15ish).

The staff member in the pro shop was very friendly and a great help with course information, yardages etc. He also allowed us to play off the back tees, which I would recommend.

The greens were running very nicely, a couple were particularly slow, but that didn't dampen the experience.

We were playing at a particularly fair ace, and had no issues, until we hit the turn, where we managed to catch up to a three ball. They managed to up their pace so we weren't waiting too often, so hats off to them.

A few very nice holes and a few tests along they way. I would recommend this course to anyone. I have played a few courses around Dundee and Angus and I would rank this one up there for the price you pay against the quality of the course.

Nice layout and can only get better

Played here on an inclement day and enjoyed the course. Some nice holes and some really nice holes with very few bland efforts. Only gripe was the greens. Some of these were extensively damaged and took the Adobe away from what works have been an excellent course. Apparently veteran greens have been vandalized and whislt this is out of the control of Piperdam it was still disappointing to only know this see we played the relevant holes. Overall though very decent course with potential to be top notch

Expected better

We were a 3 ball playing behind 3 lots of 4, who were all going round in buggies. Even with that it took us almost 5 hours to get round. The course itself has had some vandalism on their greens, which isn't there faultz but did impact on some of the play. The fairways are nice and wide but there was a lot of water lying on some of the late fairways. Disappointing.

Great golf course near Dundee

We played this at short notice and enjoyed ourselves. Back 9 are definitely better than front 9, but loved the course and will be back in the future

Great course.

Came for a nice quiet round with the wife walking, course played great and conditions were amazing ashame about the greens that have been ruined but that's no fault of the course staff. Would maybe say a tiny bit over priced at £30 but wouldn't complain had a great day will be back for sure.

Definitely worth playing

Booking through GolfNow affords you great value and allows us to visit and support courses in our locality. My wife and I truly enjoyed playing Piperdam which had a great variety of holes, a few hilly ones, greens where in reasonable condition and fairways fantastic,well worth visiting.
