Father and son golf outing

No staff at the course when we arrived , honesty box at the course. A member of staff came out to meet us on the second hole and gave us briefing of the course layout. Very nice course would play again.

Enjoyable

Me and Mrs T played and we both said it was an enjoyable course to play. Some tough climbs and small greens make it a challenge we played it after a few days of exceptional sunny weather so the greens made even more challenging. Some good par 4s and 3s. I can imagine it gets very wet and windy at times. Like most small clubs in Scotland the clubhouse facilities are closed most of the time the staff we did see were most helpful 👍 would we play again yes 👍

Great wee find

This was the first time we played at Lockerbie and it is a great wee course with some outstanding views.

Once you understand the layout and where the Tees are it is a great wee course and most enjoyable to play

Gem of a course

This is a fantastic course. It was the meeting in the middle for a friend and me - halfway between Ayr and Newcastle. Although the clubhouse was scheduled to be closed on Monday's the secretary came to the club to welcome us and set us off on our round. Really friendly and helpful. Green staff on course also very accommodating and helpful and corrected us when we went in the wrong direction at one point. The course is clearly marked - wrong direction was our lack of concentration. Nice mix of holes, balance of uphill and downhill holes. challenging par 3s, and some nastily deep bunkers, lots of trees ! Would have been nice to have couple of par 5s - but not sure where they could be fitted in. We were very luck with the weather - a bit of rain when we arrived but fine and dry all the way round. Course in great condition. Really enjoyed the round and will certainly be back. Very happy to recommend.

Fabulous course!

Fabulous course although the layout was a bit confusing on the back 9 holes.

Very strenuous first hole, but the whole course was in good condition with beautiful scenery.

Throughly recommend this course.

Good value course

Lockerbie is a very undulating/hilly course. It was well presented, the fairways had been sprayed so could’ve done with a cut. Some really interesting holes, Par 3 over water was cool. Overall a good course for £20.

Friendly welcome.

Course was only playing 9 holes due to rain over previous weeks. Met by club secretary who apologised and was friendly and welcoming. Played the 9 open holes twice. Good challenge of holes and did no detract from nice round golf.

Course is a bit hilly, but was on good condition.

Course is a bit hilly, but was on good condition.

There was a competition on later that day so the pins were in very tough locations..

Overall the course was good, a bit soft in areas, but didn't spoil our game..

We never seen anybody until the 17th hole due to the competition, so was nice and relaxing and enjoyable..

Lockerbie lament

The course was almost empty on arrival. Damp underfoot but preferred lies. Enjoyed the first seven holes before the player behind me cut in, missing out two holes, to then play directly behind me. Showing total lack of etiquette. It was also noted a local thought it a good idea to walk across the course with his dogs and a baby in a pram.

Felt too many holes were similar.

Still not properly dried out

Middle of June and I lost two balls landing on the fairways from good tee shots, both plugging and never seen again. I mean, yes we've had some rain but really courses should be very much dried out by now. The greens were pretty fast but had silly pin positions at the edge of greens presumably to keep the players away from the main part of them.

Not the longest of courses but as the fairways hadn't been cut in a while and with the ground still being somewhat spongey there was no run at all so it played a fair bit longer than you'd think. The course itself has some nice holes but be aware it is hilly so if you struggle going up and down get a buggy. Oh and here's the best piece of advice: at EVERY hole check you are on the right one. Always check the marker to make absolutely sure you are where you should be. If you don't - you're going the wrong way.

Lockerbie isn't terrible but it's not great either though that's just one opinion of course but if you do want to go then wait until there's been plenty of dry weather.

Booked anticipating an 18 hole round but half the course was closed, unusual given the time of year! This was not mentioned prior to booking or approaching the course, difficult to work out the course layout and the par/distance of course became unrecognisable

Some fairways were long so hardly any carry on shots, was looking forward to playing the course and live locally but left disappointed and short changed
