About

Balfron Golf Club is an 18-hole golf course that was recreated from its original layout by respected Scottish golf architect Robin Hiseman. The new nine-hole golf course was opened in 1994, and it was extended to 18 holes 7 years later.

The Baltron golf course is located six miles from Loch Lomond and 20 miles north of Glasgow. There are inspiring views of the local countryside, eerily reminiscent of playing golf in the Scottish highlands.

Seek it out!

Played this course a couple of times now & highly recommend it. It’s quite hilly & no buggy’s available so eat your weetabix. Some really testing holes but also a couple of driveable par 4s. Keeping out the rough is key to good scoring. Also make sure you carry a GPS, there’s no distance markers anywhere.

Midweek round

Excellent golf course in great condition, fairways were good.

Tee’s and greens were superb.

Small but functional clubhouse staff extremely friendly.

Only drawback no shower facilities that I could see.

We will definitely be back.

Greens need improvement

Great course, staff excellent. Pin positions challenging but greens weren't receptive or consistent. Some were great others diseased.

My review would've been 4.5 stars. Sadly the greens were a let down. Won't deter us from returning. A beautiful course and lovely staff.

Wee Beauty

Very friendly staff when I booked in given a short layout of course .

Not a long course but very well layout and the greens off all sizes and slopes , tee area and fairways are very well looked after.

Played this course on a fair day ,this course will have more bite in the wind.
