St. Michaels Golf Club

The weather was perfect. Not to many people on the course. The course as everywhere araouned was dry. But we enjoyed to play.

Upon arrival we went to check in and the staff member was very blunt and unwelcoming. This was our first time and we’re looking forward to it after reading reviews.

Our review is fairly honest. We wouldn’t return in a hurry. The front 9 holes were all elevated and hadn’t been watered (understandable) they were very quick and tricky to read or stop the ball within 80-100 yards. Members we’re rude and don’t have etiquette of stopping and allowing you to take your shot. Tee boxes are well used and no sign of repair on any par 3 tee box and some par 4s.

Back nine was slightly better and the par 3 15th is a great hole. The new bunker is unreal and really gives this hole character. After reading the sign at the 17th tee, saying if a ball leaves the course boundaries we are reliable. What happens if you accidentally draw or hook a driver out of bounds and hits a train or car on the main road which is no more than 15 yards from the tee box on the left. Then green is 5 yards right to the railway and very easily reached with a good driver. (270 yards). I think this is nonsense as an amateur golfer has no control over a bad shot. The club should have insurance to protect the player and not the player having to fork out. As member of a high profile course we have insurance to cover us hitting a caravan or member of the public if a bad shot occurs and damages.

Overall quite disappointed that the members have no etiquette and the golf club puts you under pressure on the last 3 holes to keep right of the railway and main road. Won’t be back in a hurry and generally wouldn’t recommend to anyone. If in the area I would be playing Drumoig for £10 more than this course.

My first visit to this area and I had played the St Andrew's Jubilee course on Monday 29 May, which was an amazing experience. I played St. Michael's with my son and son in law on the following Thursday and we had a great time. The course was in great condition and it is beautifully laid out. By all means spend your life savings on the expensive links courses if you wish, but don't leave the area without enjoying this bargain gem of a parkland course. All credit to the Leuchars St. Michael's golf club. Thank you for a great experience and a wonderful memory.

Greens in great condition as are fairways. Great views over the Eden estuary towards St Andrews. Well worth a visit. Great value for money

Great little course with some quirky holes 15th is a wee gem!!

Good value for money course' and always a friendly welcome.

I played this course last year and forgot how good it is, well layed and every hole is so different.

It's not a course that you are going to lose a lot of balls at the same time it's still tricky with beautiful views and friendly clubhouse.

It has to be the best value course I have played.

Nice course, easy to navigate good fairways however, the rough is unforgiving a good course

Good value for money. Only downfall is lack of driving range to warm up. Very nice staff. Good variety in design of holes.

Returned to play this course now for a second time during the Scottish Winter months. Enjoyed my round, no fairway mats, full greens. Course in good condition for this time of year. Good challenging pars 3.

What I also enjoyed about off the course is the warm welcome in the wee Clubhouse where they have a log burner. Chap behind the bar very welcoming. Home made soup excellent. Perfect combination for post round game. Highly recommended.

Played in awful wind and rain but a really enjoyable course nonetheless. Set up on winter course layout so 6 par 3s, winter mats and some maintenance going on but doesn't detract from the round knowing this. Enough challenging shots combined with opportunity to just play your game around varied and intersting holes. Greens are pretty quick despite the weather. Held up really well to the conditions. Will certainly return for a round in sunshine/calmer weather!

Play this course a few times each year,comps and winter golf,great wee course( better during golf season,a lot of par 3,s on winter layout) but greens good all year round,staff in club always friendly,defo worth a visit.

Very friendly and the course was in top condition.

Played the course on a bright Autumnal Saturday and the course was in great condition with very good and fast greens.As always you receive a great welcome and at great value for 18 holes.

We managed the front nine in one hour 20 but sadly caught up with the end of a pub outing so slowed up on the back nine,just made it in before dark.....

Great wee course only 10 minutes from St.Andrews

The day we played weather could not be worse but what a fantastic little course! The staff were very friendly in the clubhouse and we were able to take our little dog on the lead as well.

Will definitely be back to play when up this way next.
