You have to play
Reviewed September 28, 2024
Played at the end of August with a lot of wind but no rain. Great mix. The first nine is a bit more modern, the second nine is old fashioned, a great links course. Very well maintained despite the bad weather. Some great blind holes on the second nine. The course is worth coming back to.

Not a classic, but a great place
Reviewed September 8, 2024
The first nine are the new holes, supposedly built in 1996, the back nine are the true links classics, wild and original. Links feeling in its purest form. Blind tees, hilly fairways, old bunkers, simply great.
The par 72 would not be too difficult even from the back, white tees; better knowledge of the course would be required, but there was only a light breeze.
Course maintenance okay, bunkers easy to play, greens impeccable, not too fast but okay.
Secretariat and catering nice, would gladly come again.

A little gem
Reviewed June 18, 2015
After rounds of golf on some "top" -Plätzen offered by each golf tour operators in Scotland and were a little disappointing, we then still quite unexpectedly found to end our trip a little gem with real Scottish feel: embedded in the magnificent dune landscape offers of course some of the highlights: "blind" haircuts, undulating, top-manicured greens, partly natural fairways with unusual obstacles (stone walls), and all at an extremely reasonable compared to places everywhere offered green fee! We were greeted very friendly and have us felt very comfortable there. And at the end of the round you can sit in the clubhouse of a large window facade with a wonderful view of dunes, seals and the sea! This place can only recommend!

Great links with two different faces
Reviewed June 15, 2014
This golf course proves again that links golf can be very different. Upon arrival, a gentle falls the nachempfunde a bird club house (2001 built) in the eye.
The already over 125 year old place has to offer two completely contradictory 9 hole rounds. The front nine is played on a hill going up and down every now and then. Two extremely long par 3 (from the back tees) and a brilliant downhill dogleg hole 9 are the outstanding holes. In the first half, one should in any case can also lay diagonally games.
The back nine are then completely flat when not having straight down the fairway at once a few feet high wells. Here are also some blind tee to deal with, which you should stop here as possible to the direction marker.
Surrounding the place of a nature reserve is where you can see a myriad of water birds and a seal colony.
I would particularly like to emphasize once the extremely friendly reception in the pro shop!
