My second visit after the first some years ago I was keen to return, and again had a thoroughly adventurous and enjoyable game. The course is not too penal but makes demands on your game especially around the greens. This region has some really great courses and the people are extremely friendly even to Australians. Brora is a must play in your lifetime of golf.

First impressions were of a rough and ready local course They are working at improvements on a number of holes and I can imagine in a year or so this course will step up to a level where those who love links golf will be rushing to play Our caddies were local members who made our day only the better and I can safely say if you are in the area don’t miss playing this course

A huge surprise! Staying at Dornoch we decided to play all the local courses as well as the top shelf rated ones and they just kept delighting our group At Golspie you had to be on your game especially on at least half the holes to avoid bad scoring The outlook from the clubhouse was sublime and a great day was had in mostly sun with plenty of wind.

Played the course in the past few weeks and although it is a tough walk, it's has some great holes. Make sure you are driving thr ball well or you'll struggle. Practice facilities before you tee off are top class and no excuse not to be warmed up before you tee off!

Course is not the greatest I have ever played but the scenery and the ambience of the people made up for any shortcomings on the course. Played in senior open a couple of years ago and found the semi-rough between fairways covered in daisies and buttercups which made in nearly impossible to find a stray tee shot but will definitely be back.

Just like links golf but on top of the moors! Far reaching views to die for, fairways and greens as good as anywhere and I've played West Lancs, Penrith, Hexham and Cleveland this year to name a few and they're as good as any of those!! One or two delightfully quirky holes but all in all a proper test of golf. If you haven't tried it, you should!!

It's just a great moorland course, not a tree in sight. Risk & Reward holes, driveable pars 4s (depending on the wind...) it has the lot. The par 3 2nd is iconic. BUT not for the fainthearted, hilly, my partner said 15 holes uphill and 3 down, not really but it feels like it, at least the par 5 18th is all downhill. I've played opens at this course every year for the past 8, mostly for £10,...

I have played several times at RND in the last 2 years. Most recently I played in their Seniors Pairs Open in mid June 2019 and 2 events in their golf week in Mid August 2019. The organisation of all the events was good . The course was in good condition but unfortunately suffering from abundant sheep's droppings . If the wind blows it can be a tough challenge. The staff were friendly and the of...
