Warren

Warren – a 5hcp at Long Reef Golf Club in Sydney – a rather lame version of links but nevertheless a very good course.

Archerfield (Dirleton) 24/05/2017

9^th 51^st

Played this as the opener on my 36 hole day at Archerfield. This course is billed as the more linksy of the two courses but I think Fidra matches it for links golf and i...

Dunbar 23/05/2017

6^th 39^th

As previously mentioned the first 3 holes and the 18th are played on the slightly interior land. I say interior but to me not inferior. I thought the massive dune running...

Eyemouth 18/05/2017

6^th

Eyemouth starts and finishes in a parkland setting but in between has some wonderful seaside holes. I am reluctant to call it links but arguably there is a stretch of it....

Gullane (No.1) 04/05/2017

3^rd 20^th 60^th

Excellent course. Wasn’t what I was expecting. Thought it was going to be a slog up and down the hill but this was not the case. Obvious elevation changes but routed beau...

Goswick 03/05/2017

1^st 87^th

I love everything about this course. I knew it was going to be good but I was elated when I rolled up and saw the landscape. The course weaves in and around the dunes in...

Dunstanburgh Castle 03/05/2017

5^th

Now Dunstanburgh Castle was a surprise packet. Yet to be reviewed on this website but as it made The 240 Real Links courses of Britain & Ireland list I felt compelled t...

North Berwick (West) 01/05/2017

2^nd 6^th 13^th 41^st

Played it for my first time in what is apparently not the prevailing wind. Today it was a howling easterly that really shortened up the outward 9. The first hole is a sig...

Luffness New 28/04/2017

8^th 46^th

I was somewhat disappointed with Luffness. The opening hole was nice, hitting up and over some wonderful bunkering but that was close to the highlight of the round. The f...

Craigielaw 26/04/2017

17^th 85^th

Unsure what the fuss in the reviews below is about regarding the greens at Craigielaw. Sure they are built on higher ground but that just means it questions your ability...

Kilspindie 25/04/2017

10^th 59^th

Reminded me of Crail’s Balcomie course. The opening holes after the benign par 3 opener were excellent. Running along the coast and forever threatening the right hand sli...

Hillside 02/09/2016

4^th 23^rd 52^nd

Great course, a quarter of a ball behind Birkdale therefore rounds up to 6 balls. Friendly pro shop gave Hillside an immediate advantage. The course is a well conditioned...

St Annes Old Links 13/07/2016

9^th

St Annes is a decent, honest links course set over some fairly flat land. It has some special holes, namely 9 & 10 that play in an around some heavy dunes and the long fi...

Hesketh 08/07/2016

14^th

Hesketh starts so promisingly. The view down the fairway through the dunes on the 1st tee is fantastic but is definitely the high point of the course. The holes on the cl...

Formby 08/07/2016

3^rd 19^th 46^th

Having played Birkdale, RLSA and Hillside in the past few days I can confidently say that the conditioning at Formby was the best. The fairways and greens were in great t...

Royal Birkdale 07/07/2016

1^st 3^rd 12^th 40^th

Magnificent golf course with great bunkering, dunes, greens and overall design. Most holes played in isolation and goes very close to the top of my list. I wouldn’t mind...

Littlehampton 07/07/2016

12^th

Littlehampton is a neat little links course in an area not rich with links courses, Hayling at about an hour west and Rye at about an hour east the nearest neighbours. Th...

Rye (Old) 28/06/2016

2^nd 24^th 55^th

Played 36 holes, first round on the tough Jubilee Course and then the Old course. My learnings from the day include:-1. Take up the offer of hitting a few warm up balls....

Felixstowe Ferry (Martello) 16/06/2016

6^th

Referring to the reviewer below me, I think for everyone who plays at Felixstowe the favourite holes would be the stretch from 13 to home as it is here you find some pro...

Moray (Old) 03/05/2016

5^th 28^th 88^th

Like the reviewer immediately before me I too played Moray the day after Cruden Bay in July 2015. I played 36 holes, firstly on the New followed by the Old. Whilst it was...

Royal Cinque Ports 15/04/2016

2^nd 12^th 31^st 95^th

It was few years ago I played RCP and I was very impressed. My initial impression, viewing it from the car park, and without the knowledge of this website, was of a fairl...
