Falkirk Golf Club
About
Known locally as "Carmuirs," Falkirk Golf Club is a parkland layout with slight undulation. It's a 6,230-yard par-71 course from the back tees.
Falkirk will undergo a significant renovation in the coming years. David J. Russell, a PGA Professional and golf course architect, has made several recommendations on improving the layout that will be incorporated into the course.
New practice facilities have also been added: four practice bays, a practice putting green and "short game" area for pitching and bunker play. A fully-stocked pro shop is on site, managed by resident professional Stewart Craig.

Well laid out and in good condition.
Played with my two sons who like to hit a long ball, both thoroughly enjoyed the length and pace of play. Not too much trouble in the long grass, bad shots weren’t overly punished which meant a good pace of play. We were spoiled with great weather and we took advantage of cold drinks at the 19th. Definitely return.
Soft Sandy bunkers, greens were tined and sanded but didn’t spoil our round, soon adjusted to the slower pace.
Very enjoyable course
Only negative was the greens which were true but slow because of tines + sand, not a spoiler though and we soon got the pace. Otherwise, the course was well laid out, very well prepared, soft sand bunkers and excellent variety of holes. We will definitely return. The staff were very helpful and welcoming, the day we played was scorching sunshine so there were lots of people having drinks on the patio overlooking the 18th, always nice have an audience on the last : )
We tee’d off at 2pm on Friday and weren’t followed by anyone which surprised me for a Friday afternoon. There were folk ahead but we (3 ball) didn’t catch them up. I only lost one ball and that was just a mid-hit straight into water and my two sons lost a couple and that means the course was very fair to the erratic hitters. Definitely returning and soon if the weather stays kind through September 2023.
Nice Course
Nice layout with some Strong Par 4’s. Greens had just been fed and were pretty slow, only issue in the day.
Really enjoyed our round,only fault would be the bunkers weren't very well kept.
However probably being pernickety if honest. Great test of golf.
Course in great condition despite the previous week’s heavy rain.
Very enjoyable round despite some longish walks between some tees and greens. Will certainly return on another occasion.
Played Falkirk Golf
Played course on Thursday, course excellent as usual, great price good people recommend big time.
Thanks.
Decent for the price
Paid 15, can't complain. Decent greens, some good holes, it won't blow you away but you can't complain either.
Great value but poor pace of play
Great wee course. Really friendly staff, nice clubhouse with good food, and course in great condition. Only negative was the poor pace of play due to a 2 ball in front of us who would have been better off at a pitch and putt, and a 3 ball in front of them who took 10 mins to clear each green.
Booked around 2 weeks in advance for my son and I for 2-26pm, arrived just after 2pm checked in and down to the 1st tee for 2-20pm,one guy sitting waiting to tee off, how wrong was I another 12 guys appeared, they started with two 4 balls a 3 ball then a 2 ball, we didn't get to tee off until nearly 30mins latter, still had a good day but so frustrating
Great Value for money
Fantastic condition and greens were immaculate, huge credit to the green keeping staff. And at £15pp genuinely brilliant value for money, will 100% be back.
Was Expecting More
Not a bad course greens in great condition however I feel I could do with a little TLC. It has a good mixture of holes and elevation changes. Probably would play again if I could get a hot deal.
A pure gem
I played the course for the first time on Monday 16th May in awful weather but was absolutely delighted with the course and the rain became insignificant. It is a pure gem and the best value I’ve had this year by a country mile (£16 through Golf Now). I was welcomed by a lovely gentleman in the wee clubhouse/pro shop. His smile made the effort of going out seem worthwhile. I’ll be back without a doubt.
