CLUB COMMENT: Tiger tees have been positioned throughout the course increasing the yardage to 6,615 with significant changes to the 3rd and 7th holes. After a change of greens management, we are now seeing the results of renovations.

Blind shots galore and a quirky charm which is seldom bettered in Britain. Old Tom Morris and Archie Simpson designed the course as a railway company sought to match Gleneagles with a ‘Palace in the Sandhills’.
