Course in good condition, greens are nice with a reasonable pace. A few blind holes but great views and a decent challenge. Definitely worth playing and will be back.
Lovely course with amazing views
We thoroughly enjoyed our round at Dunkeld & Birnam Golf Course. The surrounding countryside is beautiful & the views from the course were amazing. There were some tricky holes but I was very pleased to start & finish with the same ball. Would love to come back to play it again.
Course is beautiful, but experience was tainted with zero staff at clubhouse to assist and not even given a scorecard :(
Course was lovely. Stunning backdrop and a difficult course.
Disappointed that there were no staff at the facilities when we had agreed to play... I don’t understand why the course would advertise and take bookings on golf now (where traditionally most bookings are first timers to the course of one offs) And not have a member of staff there to help and give guidance. We didn’t even get scorecards which was poor.
I would recommend the course though but only in the middle of the day, probably at the weekend when the course bother maybe putting staff on.
Fantastic course
Decided to play a round of golf whilst on holiday at the cardney estate
The price was perfect and the course is in fantastic condition and often quite challenging with some of the green positions etc
The course has a lot of elevated tees as well as a few elevated greens
I would definitely recommend hiring a buggy if you are not the fittest as there some steep hills to carry clubs or push a trolley
Waterlogged and.no amenities
Booked Dunkeld via GolfNow for 10am and arrived in heavy rain. No one around to check if course open or not. Checked website -winter hours 11am until 5pm. So no pre round coffee for us. Played the course in dreadful conditions and looked forward to enjoying a warming lunch. 130pm. Clubhouse and toilets closed. Open from 11am to 1pm only on Sundays. (Not what website says). Extremely disappointed and wont be back. Why is Dunkeld making tee times available and not providing catering? They must have known we were booked in.
Lovely course in magnificent setting
Played the course with two friends on a lovely warm summer's afternoon. The setting is very beautiful.
The course is well designed and is pretty hilly and quite challenging both physically and golf wise. You might need a buggy if your fitness is not at a decent level.
It's well maintained with lush fairways and greens. My only criticism is that the greens, although smooth and true, were definitely on the slow side.
Clubhouse overlooking first green offers magnificent views especially from the outside tables on a warm clear day.
Staff were friendly / helpful as were fellow golfers.
Good value for money
Thoroughly enjoyable experience - will almost certainly return.
Lovely welcoming course
Three of us staying locally at Aberfeldy and found this wee gem on Golfnow - really glad we did as it was a great find, especially at the bargain price of £18 each for an 11am tee time on a Sunday in July !! .
The lady at reception was very welcoming, even coming out to the 1st tee to show us the layout and give us bit of history of the course. etc which we really appreciated. It sounds like she has been there for a good few years and you could tell that she was very proud of the course.
The front nine is the original course layout and is quite tight and tricky, with the (newer) second nine opening out into a more open outlook with longer holes to negotiate. The two nines were very different, but no less challenging and you need to be on your game to post a good score here and it is a very fair test.
The overall condition of the course was good and the greens were in nice condition, even after the very dry recent spell of weather.
Unfortunately we didn't have time to go in for a drink or something to eat as we needed to get back to Aberfeldy, but a quick peek in showed a beautiful lounge area with cracking views over the course.
All in all, the three of us agreed that we would have no hesitation in coming back to play here again or to recommend to anyone else looking for a game in the area.
Lovely little course with views of beautiful Perthshire
A short course but full of surprises - plenty of elevation and in the middle of the most beautiful scenery. Would have given 5 stars if there had been a range. At £19 with a Hot Deal this is a must play if you are in the area. The staff were very friendly. There is even a vacation rental flat above the clubhouse that you can book via AirBnB.
lovely course
course us a bit hilly but good exercise. some great quirky holes. greens good. definitely worth a game.
Superb setting
Highly enjoyable round of golf. Some interesting and deceptive holes on first nine. Second nine is relatively new though the greens seem much quicker.
an interesting challenge
A great small course, amazing scenery. A course full of hills, some quite steep. I thoroughly enjoyed my round. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. I will be back. I only started playing last year and this presented quite a challenge.
Lovely course with some very interesting holes
Wet start but didn't detract from a very scenic and fun round
Beautiful but you may need a buggy
Wonderful setting the views are breathtaking. Interesting and challenging course set in highland Perthshire. Well worth playing the course is in two parts with a more recent back nine added in 2000. Not many downsides but the greens had suffered from the dry spring and many have not recovered from tining and dressing.
The car parking is limited and access to the clubhouse is via a steep path/drive. The 16th 17th and 18th are very steep climbs and if like me you are on the wrong side of sixty you may want to have a buggy. Recommended
The most stunning course I've played in Scotland
I played this course for free with a voucher code sent to me via an email from American golf, the views of the scenery from almost every hole is breath taking, the course it self is well maintained to a very high standard as is the clubhouse where I met the staff who gave me a warm welcome. I travelled the hour long journey back along the A9 the following day to play it again fell in love with the place and have now taken out a country membership,every golfer should try this course it will blow you away!
Great visit
We had a very pleasant visit to a golf course with stunning scenery.
Good condition considering it was closed the previous day due to flooding.
