Troon Links - Lochgreen
About
After or before chowing down on the clubhouse's "Scottish Fayre," take on Troon Links Lochgreen Course.
The Lochgreen Course at Troon Links is widely regarded as the best of the municipal golf courses in Troon, though all offer a great round of golf at prices hard to beat in Scotland.
Troon Links Lochgreen Course is facility's largest, a par-74 that parallels in parts Royal Troon Golf Club and has served as a qualifier for the Open. Jack Nicklaus, for one example, once shot an 82 on the golf course and needed to follow it up with a 68 to make the cut by one shot.

Great bar the 5 ball in front
Staff are very friendly and easy to deal with. Great facilities if you need to use them.
Course is always in excellent condition. Played in a pretty windy day and still enjoyed it so that says it all.
Greens are brilliant, courses well looked after and always clean.
Could do with someone out checking pace of play etc as there was a group making up a 5-ball (yep a 5 ball!!!!!) A few groups in front of us and it caused a 5/10minute wait on every tee pretty much.
Wont stop me playing again, but this nonsense needs better management as it really affected the round
Bargain Links is a great day out!
Course is playable all year, great turf and I was surprised by the speed of the greens in early March. Holes 2 and 3 are currently both shortened to par 3s for development work, but every green was on. Some great views and some really interesting holes. Absolute bargain at £16, will be returning soon.
Loch Green
Still a lot of work to be done on the 2nd and 3rd holes. 11,12&13 were a bit wet underfoot.
Really friendly staff
Played during hard frost so all winter greens, there's a lot of work going on at holes 2 & 3 but this was explained to us at starter's office. For early January and all the rain we've had the course was in pretty good condition and no matter how good, winter greens are winter greens. The catering staff and standard of food on offer were great and the guy at the starters desk gave us a 50% off our next round voucher to make up for the course work and all winter greens. All in all we really enjoyed our day at Lochgreen.
V good value
Holes 2 and 3 are reduced from par 5’s to par 3’s. Got reduced rate because of this on website and it was excellent value. Lovely course.
Major work being carried out on 2 holes but still a great course in very good condition for time of year
The Darley Course
We rearranged to play on the Darley course because it's a bit shorter than Lochgreen but the same applies to all three courses excellent to play great value and the staff whether the Pro shop the food or the very helpful starters just brilliant that was Monday 23rd October. Eric Black.
Lochgreen
Windy weather and wet conditions that week but course and greens in great condition.

Great day at Lochgreen ( Troon ) good value for money £25 and brilliant weather
Superb greens
Sunny and very little wind which helped my score for sure. Play off 5 and went round in +1. My best ever. Helped by pure greens like a carpet. My son played well too but only disappointment was no snacks or friendly welcome in the clubhouse. Not near the standard you would expect from a golf hub like Troon and we travelled a good distance to play too.
Lovely course and a fair challenge
Lochgreen is an option of 3 courses on offer at the Troon links set up. The course is well set up and the greens are fair but with some sneaky breaks to keep you guessing. The view are stunning and the facilities are very nice with very helpful staff.
This is a great value for money course.
I would recommend you pay attention to your course map on your scorecard as with 3 courses playing along side each other, you can get confused as to where to go next
Good links course challenge
Played a number of times in recent years. The course is long and challenging, with a parkland section from 11-14th holes. The clubhouse is great for lunch and closes at 3.30pm.
Lochgreen
Course was dry and fairways running but a bit bare of grass at this time of year . I used a fairway mat but that was my own preference . Not compulsory . Full greens were on . Greens always run true and good pace . Considering my own course in Glasgow was closed due to the weather it was great to get a game on a decent course . I will return no problem .
Smashing big long track
Great course to play if u want a good day out, love the amount of par 5s, don't count on a low score it's 74 off the yellows, thoroughly enjoyed it, some tough bunkers on the fairways. Only complaint is the rabbit holes throughout but can't do anything about that unfortunately, looking forward to playing it in the summer when the ball will run a lot further
Winter inland links
Facilities were tremendous. Nice clubhouse.
Front 9 which is more exposed to the coast was nice but holes all over the fairways from maybe moles or whatever. Not sure if they are allowed to do anything about it but they were pretty substantial in nearly every hole.
Back 9 I liked better. More parkland type but with the traditional links bunkers. Greens seemed in better condition here also.
Going to play Fullarton next week and I would still recommend lochgreen. Will return in the warmer months to play again.
Winter golf
You really can’t beat it.
Full course on - great rate and on the day nice weather, beats inland courses all day long…
Try it - you won’t be disappointed

Unlucky with the weather!
The main reason we booked Loch Green is because of their use of normal greens throughout the year.
Unfortunately when we got there, it was frosty and they were using alternative greens.
Although we were disappointed, we know it’s a good course and after they refunded us with a half price voucher, we’ll be back later on the year
