For context, I first played the Ailsa around ten years ago and it remained the best course I'd played for some time. A couple challenged it, but it was the one I always e...
Disclaimer...this course is not for everyone, and I can fully understand people not enjoying it, or getting it (without sounding patronizing). I loved it. Everything abou...
Arguably the most famous course on the continent, I'd wanted to get onto Valderrama for some time. I'd played Real Sotogrande and the nearby San Roque, and last year even...
This just about sneaks 5 starts, but its a 4.5 I think. I cant really put my finger on it, but I left slightly underwhelmed. It's always fun play the famous courses and t...
This is a great golf course and has a different feel to others in the region. It is also great value as it is an hours drive our of Dubai so gets less traffic. Interestin...
This is a seriously great golf course. Not the prettiest, but 18 brilliant golf holes. I simply cant believe that there are people out there who think its dull. Didn't pl...
Great course over some brilliant natural golfing terrain and a terrific opening hole that sets you up well for what is to come. Some lovely holes, framed by the hillside...
What a brilliant, brilliant golf course. If you make your way to the Highlands for a golf trip, be sure to tag this gem onto your itinerary. It is stunning, and one of th...
Played Nairn in April on day 3 of a tour encompassing Dornoch and Castle Stuart. In truth, I didn't have huge expectations given the quality of the others courses, and we...
I simply cannot understand how Castle Stuart gets anything other than exceptional reviews. From the second you arrive the service levels and hospitality are exceptional....
I had been excited about playing Dornoch for about 12 years, since my father played it and nearly left the family to stay up there and become a member. Finally managed to...
I am very fortunate to be a member at Worplesdon and despite having now played it many, many times, I still enjoy the challenge. Its a scenic, old fashioned, classic Surr...
Beautiful, pretty, cute, quaint, astonishingly enjoyable, challenging but emminently playable. The second best inland course in England. The best? Its baby sister, the Ne...
I have been fortunate enough to play a number of the best courses in the UK and beyond including Portrush, Lytham, Sunningdale(s), Birkdale, Turnberry, Pebble Beach, Vald...
Played Pebble on a glorious hot day in July. The starter said it was the hottest day he had experienced in his time at the club, and it set up what was to be a fantastic...
The best 36 holes anywhere in the UK (if not the world?), but the new just wins the race in my view. The old is achingly beautiful, but the new feels a more grown up golf...
I have been lucky enough to play the Dunluce at Portrush twice, this time as part of a tour encompassing Portstewart (Strand) and Castlerock, and I have to say that it wa...
What an experience this was. Had the pleasure of playing Leisure Lodge whilst on a three week tour of Kenya and it was a joy. I cant say I am used to playing golf in 40 d...
