Like many other courses in the area, the greens were not at their best. However I’m sure in a few weeks they will be. A few of the holes have steep climbs but it is such a pretty course and quite challenging. Building work is taking place at the clubhouse so a certain amount of disruption there. Very friendly and helpful bar manager. We will definitely be returning to this little gem .

Crieff Ferntower is a lovely course, well maintained and having the benefit of a very friendly Pro. We teed off slightly earlier than booked as the Pro advised there was no-one in front. It was an exceptionally hot day but the course played well and the greens were true. Very friendly people in the bar and we had a very tasty dinner in the clubhouse after golf. We’ll be back!

In stunning weather, 4 of us played Kirkbymoorside. With a challenging first hole you have to “switch on” to this course. The views are just stunning and at this time of year the autumn colours on the trees are beautiful. Most of the fairways are wide but there are slopes and hills to take into account for a good shot and lie. Some of the greens had been tined and unfortunately some of them were very heavily covered with sand but on the whole the ball ran pretty well. Preferred lies are in place.

From the very warm welcome when we arrived at the course, to the condition of the greens and the wonderful views our day at Kirkcudbright was excellent. The only thing I would say is you have to be quite fit to enjoy playing this course as there are some fairly steep hills to climb. Will definitely be back.
