The old 8th is now out of commission & the replacement in play. Time will tell how well this hole fits in. The new angle this necessitates and elevation it provides on the 9th tee makes this a more interesting hole, and the required shot into this green that Tom Doak detailed in his book “Anatomy of a Golf Course” is actually more relevant for me as long par 4 as a higher handicapper than it was...

Without doubt one of the best courses in Ireland I have golfed all over the world over many years and have played Tralee a number of times and loved it every time. It is set on perfect land with the back nine in some of the most spectacular dune land and Close to Water vistas you could hope for. Don’t miss it A friend of mine had a hole in one on his birthday on the pat three called shipwreck. Ce...

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!

A must play if in Dorset Played in their Senior Open in early August 2021 and we were blessed with light winds and 23° temp. Very undulating track with some stunning golf holes. The 5th will live long in the memory with spectacular views across The Solent with The Needles clearly in view. Fairways were patchy as sadly they have had leatherjackets visiting. Club have recently appointed the forme...

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.

Great course & a good challenge, so many unique features, blind shots, sloping fairways really make you think about every shot! Condition of the course was very good & the greens were the best I’ve played this year, really true & fairly pacey. The only thing that let this place down was the greenkeeping staff on the mowers. I’m fully aware we should always give way to these hard working folk who...

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...
