This is a long course (best to play off the yellow tees for older players)

Try and keep on the fairways as the rough can be very tough. You have some spectacular views looking towards St Andrews

Good course.

Just a little wet in some places. In the summer months it would be fine.

Always good tho a bit wet underfoot

An enjoyable round and always a thrill to play despite me preferring the Torrance which overall is a better golf course IMO. It was surprisingly wet underfoot and very muddy in parts. Maybe I’d been spoiled on the links recently but having played the Torrance the week before I was a bit surprised. The greens are superb, fast and true this early in season but the course also needs a bit of TLC. It’s a big property but does look a bit tired in places especially the bottom half. I believe it’s to be upgraded and the Torrance will go. I’d much prefer it the other way around. All that said, the courses staff and overall experience is excellent. Always a pleasure to play.

Amazing Course And Extremely Cheap

Amazing course with unbelievable views and course layout. Summer greens and tees in use even on a cold winter morning and course in excellent condition for this time of year. Staff very friendly and sorted us out for coffees and breakfast rolls even at 7:30 in the morning.

Kitocks in wintry conditions

A very interesting and testing course. Beautiful views, helpful staff great practice amenities. Following recent heavy rain the course was still very playable and the green were true and surprisingly fast. Towards the end of our round the wind was very strong and it was extremely cold so we didn’t play the last two holes. The first 16 were great though.

Kittocks Course

First time playing this course on 28th December. Greens were like carpets, unbelievable pace for this time of year. Fairways were very wet as expected with very juicy rough so make sure to hit the fairway. Great experience for the price paid.

Fairmount kittocks

Lovely course. Practice before round chipping and putting free as well. Toilets I think about half way I did notice the building had solar panels on the roof. I am 13 handicap and found it a good course with a few challenging holes

Good course but the fairways weren’t the best, greens were very fast took a little to get used to them. We had 2 holes we weren’t sure where to go. I felt some of the signs for next tee were in wrong places.
