We
are truly spoiled for choice around Carnoustie, and
we are in no way restricted to links play.
The
following courses provide our unbiased opinions on the
courses you should play when you come and stay with
us. We have added a summary to each course, basically
describing the main feature of the course we like. A
link is provided for each which takes you to a more
detailed description.

A
Links course with an awesome reputation. We think its
a must due to its tight fairways, and
lightning quick greens. Favourite hole is the tenth,
for its well guarded approach to the green! Water lies
at the front, bunkers to the left and trees on the right!
With all the obstructions its difficult to make four.

Ben
Hogan's favourite golf course in Scotland. I found it
an interesting links course
that required good thought when playing. Huge undulating
fairways make it difficult,
but fun. The sixth hole is the most interesting, a tough
dog leg to a raised plateau green! Hogan described it
as the best hole he had ever played. Who are we to argue? |

| The
fifth oldest links course in the World. We like it as
its True links golf on display. As with the above two,
this course is very exposed to the elements! The short
third is very deceptive, it has an elevated green which
can be difficult to keep the ball on. Especially when
the wind is blowing. |

| A
very pretty parkland course, known as the 'Augusta' of
the North. The par 3 eigth is the stand out hole for the
course, you drive over a loch to a compact green surrounded
by a wall of rhodedendrons. |

| An
exciting parkland course, that is regularly rated as one
of the best inland courses in the country. Very higly
regarded by us, the course is always in an immaculate
condition and never disappoints. The 11th hole is one
of the greatest par 5s in the country and is the clubs
signature hole. |

A
most enjoyable parkland course. Set in a beautiful location
where the Grampian
mountains surround. The 446 yard, par 4 second hole is
a good test. Out of bounds on the right and behind the
green, the second shot is played blind over a ridge to
a bunkered green. |
