Monifieth Golf Links - The Medal Course

Excellent course and great hospitality from starter and guys in clubhouse, defo be back

Excellent Course. Friendly welcome at the Starters Hut and enjoyed a tough but very playable round of golf. First few holes into the wind were tricky but back nine made amends!

Thoroughly enjoyed playing this course only for the 2nd time, certainly will be back!! Course in great condition.

The Medal course is a good golfing challenge. Condition was how I would expect for a links course at this time of year. I'd be happy to be a member of this course. Will definitely add it to my list of courses to play again if I'm in the area.

Played on a windy day which made it challenging. Down wind - ball would roll far but was difficult to hold greens with high approach shots. And challenging coming back Into the wind. So played like a typical Links course. Greens very really fast but bit bare in patches due to general late growth across Scotland.

We managed to get a Golf Now time at £25 each which was great value for money. Otherwise prices would have been a bit steep. That said it is the course Tom Watson played as a practise before winning the Open at Carnoustie.

If you every get chance also play Montrose which is just up east course. A great course - and also the 2nd oldest 18 hole course in the world after the Old course (and the 5th oldest altogether (when you take into account 9 holes courses)

Was playing off white tees so a bit long for me. Course in good condition and a great challenge. Will be back.

Great traditional links course but like other courses in Scotland suffering from the cold dry spring weather.

Simply one of the best courses I have ever played, no wonder Tom Watson chose to play here. Given the terrible weather we have had the course was in immaculate condition. Unbelievable condition the course was in, first class. Layout, playability is outstanding, stunning views and stunning holes not a bad one on the 18. Very challenging. A credit to the greenstaff and members for hospitality and condition of the course.

Given the fact that Greenkeepers will have had less time and resources to prepare golf course, the course was in excellent condition, there were a few greens hollow tined but they were still fine to putt on. It is a good challenge of golf with some interesting holes. The scenery is lovely and the course is easy walking.

Terrific course, don't play links that often but would play this every day. Starter was very helpful, course was in terrific condition

Weather was even sunny and warm, couldn't have asked for any more

Played monifieth on way up to top of Scotland as a bit of a half way house. Great course in fantastic condition. Thoroughly enjoyable

Very good course for the money! Greens were fantastic!! As the gentleman who I got paired up with said “It’s like putting on a snooker table”. Staff was wonderful. Will definitely be back!

Just had to play first course Tom Watson played in Scotland on a links.

Cold eastern wind didn’t spoil cold occasion.

A lot of trees cut down which doesn’t put the intimidation factor into the top category of courses but very close.

A splendid enjoyable game.

Would love to return.

Love the different experiences while playing golf in Scotland and this fits the bill.

There were three different clubs and one pro shop lined up down the 18th hole of the medal course. Those three clubs have privileges at this course and the adjacent Ashludie course.

There were so many people playing on this day that it was almost dangerous. Balls flying all over the place. But it made the experience more authentic and it was a good day.

The course was brown because of the dry Scottish summer but that didn't matter. The layout was neat, and most of the course was played along the railroad. We played with a crosswind the whole round that made it challenging, but again, that's what makes experiences like this so great.

The staff in the starters hut was very friendly and informative about the course and local rules etc. Upon our visit to the pro shop the Pro was very friendly and welcoming for our group and gave good advice and seemed a genuine top guy. The course was in excellent condition and the greens very true would definitely recommend to friends great day and a good links course.

Arrived at Starters office to find there were actually 3 golf clubs here. Starter was efficient & set us on our way. The course was quite tough especially in the wind & with a meandering burn to contend with.The greens were very fast & tricky to read. At end of our round we went into the chosen clubhouse of the day the Broughty Golf Club, where we had a drink & an excellent meal which were exceptionally well priced. Staff were very polite but not very chatty. All in all we enjoyed this course but did not consider it would have been worth the full price per round. Would certainly recommend it to others.

If you wish to play a traditional links course in NE Scotland, Monifieth is an excellent course at a much more reasonable price than courses such as Carnoustie or St. Andrews. We were very warmly welcomed by all staff and greatly enjoyed learning the intricacies of playing a traditional links course. The course was not difficult at all to walk. If we are ever fortunate enough to visit Scotland again, we will definitely return to Monifieth.
