Monifieth Golf Links - The Medal Course

About
For being an old, classic inland links/parkland layout, Monifieth's par-71 Medal Course is lengthy even by modern standards, at 6,655 yards from the championship tees, and 6354 from the middles. And the wind, as pointed out by Mr. Miller, can make it play much, much longer. Even more importantly, the wind accentuates the spin on poor shots, bringing into play some of the most treacherous hazards, OB, and gorse to be found on any Scottish golf course. Holes 1-6, 13, 16, and 18 all feature OB on the right side from tee to green. And Monifieth's remaining holes hold little promise of relief, as the gorse and fescue appear to be thicker and wilder than most Scottish links.

Fantastic Day
Our experience was superb. Wonderful traditional Links layout and for late March the course was in excellent condition. At £16.00 a head for 18 holes I doubt you would find a better bargin for weekend golf. Complements to the greenkeeping staff for course conditions. Never used any of the clubhouse facilities so could not comment. Will definitely be heading back in the future.
Lovely place to play
We got a windy day but the course was in excellent condition for the time of year. And the course was set up at a decent length which does not often happen on courses in winter. Played at our own pace; nobody either in front or behind us. Great!
Beautiful holes and greens in first class nick. What could be better in early March?
