Deer Park Golf and Country Club, considered among Central Scotland's top golf courses, offers a 6,727-yard course that has hosted British Open Qualifiers as well as the Scottish PGA Championship.

Deer Park Golf and Country Club spans natural parkland. It's a relatively new golf course despite its honors. Peter Allis, Dave Thomas and Peter Clark designed it in 1978. It quickly ascended the Scottish ranks, especially when compared to the century-plus-old courses that fill Scotland.

Not bad for winter conditions

Course was nice but I'm sure would be best played in the summer months off regular tees and to the actual greens. Really enjoyed it and will be back.

Wonderful course

Played today as a single player and was met by a friendly team within the clubhouse bar where I found a good value coffee and bacon roll ( 4 slices of bacon! ) . Albeit I have played the course I was impressed with the conditions given the time of year. Iain the PGA pro was polite, helpful and welcoming. All greens in play apart from two temp winter greens. Excellent playing surfaces and flat well defined fairways. Being dog friendly is a big bonus and made the round very enjoyable. Highly recommend this course and clubhouse and if the conditions in mid November are anything to go by the course will be fantastic in summer.

Great day out

Thoroughly enjoyed my first outing at Deer Park the layout was challenging at times and the overall condition of the fairways was great. The only downside was the greens had been hollow timed and we were not informed. Made for a very frustrating time when it came to putting. Would not have booked if I known about the hollow timed greens.

Will however be back when the greens are up to standard.

A TALE OF TWO HALVES

Very welcoming golf course/club and obviously popular.

Front 9 is an uneventful up and down layout but the back 9 is a more challenging and interesting set of holes. Easy walking on the front, but a fair climb explained why we saw so many buggies on the latter part of the course.

Course in very good condition especially given that it appears well used.

Refreshments afterwards (we had coffee and sandwiches) were good and in a comfortable lounge.

Nice looking pool on site but not available for golfers unless members which, given that it seemed very quiet when we passed it, was a shame.

Deer Park

We were served a good lunch by friendly staff then had a good day on the 18 hole corse. The weather was kind The Course is long. It was in good condition. Very scenic. Especially the 10th. The first 9 holes are easier than the return 9 holes. A good day out.

Lovely course.

Lovely course first time playing it. I found it a long course but I am newish to golf so it may just be my skill level. The holes themselves where good apart from the greens were pretty rough but again could just be the time of year I played I dare say during summer time greens are lovely. I would 100% play this course again.

Greens

Would have been nice if golfnow or the staff at Deer Park could have told us the sheer amount of winter greens in operation. Roughly half the holes lost 50 + yards and then putting on fairways isn't for me or my pals. Fine if that's what you want to do but at least give people the knowledge to make their own choice

Peter

The staff are very friendly and helpful. The course is well layed out, there are no really tricky holes and for me the back 9 is the most challenging part of the course as it is hilly and I suffer from C.O.P.D. I enjoy playing at Deer Park.
