Enjoyable course, with a good mixture of par 3s,4,s an 5s. We found greens to be a tad on the slow side but ran true. Course was in good condition and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit, vfm for £19.99. My only critique would be the 3ball in front of us who were painfully slow, but fortunately for us they only played 9. Great reception in the club house and nothing was too much trouble for them.

Had always wanted to play here and yesterday was the day and TBH it didn't disappoint. The course condition was fabulous, although found some greenside bunkers were a tad hard underneath and with little sand near the edges. Apart from that the greens ran true and relatively fast, with some big breaks on some putts. Enjoyed the initial 2 holes and then found holes 3-7 a bit back and forth (long and straight), however, thoroughly enjoyed holes 8-18 with a fair mixture of doglegs and hazards (it did help I suppose that I played that stretch in 2 under par). Really enjoyed my experience and happy with my (+4, 71 especially as I was +6 after 6) if in the area would return

Very friendly welcome on arrival, helped sort us out with a buggy and explained a wee bit about the club and the course. Found the course enjoyable with some outstanding views and quirky holes. Thoroughly enjoyed the downhill par 4 16th. In general the course was in good overall condition but found that some of the fairways needed cutting as it was sometimes hard to find your ball in the middle of the fairway due to the daises. The greens although ran true were a tad on the slow side and could also have done with a wee short back and sides too. Overall very happy with our day at Hawick, the sun was shining and got a round and a buggy for £28.50pp.

Reserved a round for a 3 ball (H/caps 4,9 and 13) here on Tuesday 17th August and wasn't disappointed. From the friendly reception at the pro shop to the fantastic warm up area and the course itself all 3 of us thought it was great VFM. The course although short to what we are used to provided a stiff test and with some of the pin positions (placed on slopes etc) offering up a few 3-putts throughout the round. It was also nice to see directional arrow signs on the sharp dog legs and general directional signs dotted around the course to keep us newbies right, although it would also have been an idea to possibly have a course map on the back of the scorecard, numerous times one of our trio landed up in trouble in trees, bushes etc from running through the fairways on some doglegs. We all thought that the greens were excellent and were sure that the greenkeeper had fallen out with his partner that morning due to some of the pin placements, again we all liked the mix of par 3's and also that the Par 5's gave the longer hitters the opportunity to get to the green in 2 giving them the opportunity to putt for Eagle. Post round the clubhouse was friendly although quiet at 1635 on a Tuesday afternoon, we all enjoyed our post match refreshments, especially as it was only £5 for an IPA and 2 pints of soda water and lime. We will return and maybe sample what the kitchen has to offer next time

Thoroughly enjoyed our trip from the Kingdom into the capital city and was pleasantly surprised with our choice of course. It was in great nick although the greens were pure we did find them a bit on the slow side. The course was a bit undulating but at £20 per buggy it was an offer too good to turn down and were glad we had it. There was a great mixture of holes and a few were in reach with the big stick but your driving had to be on point for that. Great views over Edinburgh and beyond and also enjoyed watching the different types of planes landing at the Airport. Would definitely return as at £31 for a game and a buggy defo VFM. A plus side as well was the bucket of balls to be hit at the range as a warm up prior to your round

Thoroughly enjoyable course and would recommend it. Not overly long,with some quirky holes on it but dont let the length put you off still a test for all levels. The one defence were the greens, very true but we all found them extremely fast and the ball kept on rolling once past the hole.My personal favourite holes were the 9th and 10th. All in all everyone in our 4ball was very happy with the course and would return, especially at £13 pp on the hot deal.

Thoroughly enjoyed my first ever round on this course and coupled with a hot deal it was definitely VFM. The course was in great nick and enjoyed the quirky dog leg holes and it was nice to leave the big dog in the bag and pull out hybrids or long irons to play for position. Overall will come back and play it again as we all enjoyed it. Shot a scratch 76 off (12) for a nett 64 (-4) whereas my son (6)shot a +2 70 also for a nett 64.

After playing the county in the am we arrived for part 2 of our Dumfries trip in the afternoon and like the course in the morning we were not disappointed. Although longer the 4 of us all enjoyed the test, with the course in immaculate condition with slick true rolling greens. Thankfully we were in a cart as the course was undulating with a lot of 390+ yard par 4's but it did offer some cracking views of the course..Personally we found it not as inviting or as warm as our am round (possibly down to being a golf chain rather than a pro shop but on saying that the bar staff were very friendly and hospitable.

Great course in great condition, with fabulous staff and members. Couldn't fault our visit and for £25 pp what an absolute steal and we will return.
