I am an 10-handicap member of Les Mielles in Jersey, where I am lucky enough to be able to regularly play some great golf both on the island and in France. I'm a traditional links golf addict and have an unofficial challenge with a good friend to play all classic links courses in Britain in a few weeks per year, of course using the Top 100 Golf Courses and its informed users as our Bible!
If I could only play at one golf course for the rest of my life it would have to be Royal Dornoch (gorse controversy not withstanding) – maybe one day I would birdie Foxy?
West Herts gives a fun, sporting game of traditional golf making the most of the nice terrain in pretty Cassiobury park. A marked contrast to The Grove, its nearest neigh...
King Island Golf & Bowling Club was a great bonus en route from Cape Wickham to the airport for the short hop back to Launceston.
It's maintained by volunteer members wh...
Ocean Dunes is a real challenge in top condition, with some excellent holes, superb location (would be hard not to be on King Island ! ) and the friendly helpful team of...
I loved the whole King Island experience, and Cape Wickham is clearly the pick of the golf - one of the best new courses I've played, and staying there is golf heaven.
T...
Lost Farm is a quality, fun seaside course but one that suffers by comparison to its older sibling. If visiting Barnbougle I would recommend playing Lost Farm first follo...
Barnbougle Dunes is an ideal modern golf resort. Ground game links golf in a beautiful location, walking only, very friendly team, reasonable green fees and superbly func...
A decent quality and value pay and play course, good for societies and corporate groups (hence can be busy) in very pretty countryside.Some nice mature trees, the garden...
Fairmont St Andrew's Bay is an excellent option when in town for something a bit different or when other courses are busy, and Kittocks is probably the pick of the 2 cour...
Gil Hanse has done a very good job with the land that he was given, and while it's impossible not to be aware of the flat location Craighead is a very good golf course. P...
It's been a few years since I played here, but it is as fresh as if it were yesterday and I'm sure it hasn't changed ! They certainly couldn't build them like this any m...
I'm surprised at some of the low rankings for Balcomie. It's definitely not a championship length course, but if I think of fun rounds of golf I've had on a traditional l...
St Nicholas is a quality, very enjoyable Links course and fits in nicely with a trip to the nearby star attractions. It's nice to have fun on a shorter, traditional link...
Torrance feels slight in the shade of Kittocks - slightly less memorable, although perfectly enjoyable clifftop links golf in good condition with some nice views. St Andr...
An excellent complement to its neighbouring Lundin Links, to which it feels like the artisan club. Leven is unpretentious and a little rougher round the edges, but offers...
I've played the Castle Course a couple of times, post-reshaping, both individually and as part of a Society, and it was great and popular both times despite one day being...
Like its siblings, perfectly acceptable for a society golf trip - the shuttle buses etc all work well from a few hotels - but not a destination for a two or four ball. Sl...
In an ideal World for your first visit to Gleneagles you wouldn't have to choose between Brawn and Beauty, and you'd play both Kings and Queens. Complementary in nature,...
Southerness is a perfect embodiment of lovely Dumfries & Galloway; overlooked, somewhat plain to look at but genuine, friendly, good value and not afflicted by the same v...
