The Ashludie is really the poor relation to the Medal course which it sits alongside. The holes are quite short so you don't have many chances to play much more than a driver, mid iron, pitch and putter. The course is well-trodden and fairly worn in some places which can make some shots a bit difficult. The one saving grace is the putting greens which are generally in very good condition. If you are looking for pleasant, fairly easy course to play then Ashludie is a cheap and cheerful option.

The course is characterised by quite tight tree-lined fairways. Watch out for some water hazards that cross a couple of fairways and require careful negotiation. The greens are generally in good condition but can be difficult to read in some cases. All in all, a challenging but enjoyable course.
