Roxburgh revisited 2

Fabulous weather day and course in excellent condition for time of Yr- 4th time playing this great course and I'm never disappointed
Couldn't fault anything and as a sole player, I was invited to play through 3 seperate 4 balls which was a nice touch and everyone on the course seemed happy to be playing in the sunny weather
Can't wait to return

Great day out

Course in very good condition considering recent heavy rainfall over last few days. Varied layout and only one temporary green on. Assistant pro and bar staff couldn't have been more helpful and friendly.
Overall, really enjoyed the day and will be back again in the summer

2nd time here in a mth

Beautiful virtually breathless day and relatively warm, certainly for the middle of winter.
A little standing water on the course especially around the 18th which had burst it banks but rest of course playing remarkably well considering how much rain last few days.
Thoroughly pleasant experience, 2nd time played here and enjoyed both rounds equally.
Guy in clubhouse very helpful and pleasant and we appreciated letting us tee off earlier
Fantastic start to the new yr and well done to the club for preparing the course to make it as playable as it was👍

Perfect day

Paired with strangers Malcolm & Anne which turned out to be great, we had a really good laugh on the course and in the bar afterwards.
Course was in really good condition, greens very impressive and wide fairways encouraged good ball striking.
Bar staff and pro were extremely affable
All round great experience and would love to return again soon

Thought for the money would be pretty poor and was pleasantly surprised at variation in course layout and thoroughly worth it-greens in very good condition.

Golfing nirvana

Played on a beautiful warm relatively windless day-on arrival starter was helpful and informative.
Course itself was excellent, decent fairways and unbelievable undulating greens, absolutely loved them.
After round, sandwiches capped off a tremendous day and back to the Isle of Arran, our accommodation.
Truly one of the best golfing experiences of my life and can't wait to come back having wanted to play this course for yrs.

Lucky weather break

Forecast for rain for the full round but luckily played in T shirts all the way round.
Course in really good condition for time of yr and impressed with greens as to be expected on a links course. Couldn't fault it for the £26 Golfnow fee and played one of my best ever rounds so made the say even better.
Very friendly staff in golf shop-wished I lived nearer and would be delighted to call it my home course
Genuinely can't wait to return

First timer

Cold wintry overcast day-interesting course, fair amount of undulations and generally wet course but it is January to be fair. Greens bumpy as to be expected at this time of Yr.
Unfortunately, played behind a seniors comp and delays inevitable, cold standing around on the tees.
Overall, I would come back in spring/summer as I liked the layout and I'm sure I'd love it. Special mention for the assistant pro-very pleasant and helpful when I checked in for the tee time

Roxburghe revisited

Last played here 20 yrs ago with fond memories-chose a perfect weather day and course in great condition with exception of slowish greens and layout even better than I remembered with epic landscaping and spectactular undulations in the holes with not a poor hole on the course.
The best 35 pounds Ive spent anywhere on a round of golf in the UK , period .
If only I lived closer it would be my home course !

Brancepeth revisited

Firstly ,I used to be amember here 20 yrs ago and my first round since.
Quite amazing how the trees/foliage have grown in the intervening period.
What I did notice was how they had cleared lot of scrub ,especially from the par 3s making it no longer a definite lost ball if you didnt find the greens.
Overall, course in very good condition , greens were generally good but had occasional bare patches , humps( not as bad s it sounds !) was the only minor detractor from an otherwise great course in good condition for the time of yr.
Long holes and tee shot essential to being able to scoree.
Pro shop very pleasant and will deffo be back

much improved

Played this course many times and twice since latest lockdown.Real effort made to improve the drainage which he course historically has been a real problem( plugging on fairways last July ).
Latest fortnight dry weather has helped a lot but it just looks a lot better kept and more playable .Greens are still poor in comparison to nearby courses but still early in yr and its been very frosty so will review them better in 2 mths time .Lots of good improvements to pathways which again was much needed.
Overall much improved experience from last yr when it looked like the course was on a downward spiral but shows what a bit of money can do.

Back at Cally !

Always love playing this course, feel like you can always score fairly well but the par 5s are very challenging .
Par 4s all reachable in 2 and par 3s also not overly long.
Course very playable if slightly wet in a couple of places and greens still very decent for time of yr.
Love it !

Good experience

Good bits-layout, condition,decent greens, shop friendliness
Negatives-pace of play, behind 3 blokes who had no intention of letting our 2ball through and they were clearly members who should have known better
