Fairmont St. Andrews - The Kittocks Course

The course is beautiful . However on the day we played it was simply overwhelmed with visitors. We were constantly waiting to take our shot and by the time we reached the 12th there were 3 games on the hole and 2 waiting to tee off. It had taken us 3hrs to reach the 11th green and with that in front we walked in. The ranger had been out and couldn’t see anything particular slowing it down. Have to conclude that too many tees were booked.

The course was very beautiful stretching along the coast of St. Andrews. Sort of wasted as we were practically the only people out there. I guess locals may find it a pit pricey (we did not) and tourists want to play the 7 St. Andrews links courses. For us it was a great change of pace.

The course and facilities are good. I think it’s slightly over priced thou. There were flags missing and the whole place just didn’t look top notch. Greens were patchy but run very true.The scenery was fantastic. Wouldn’t say it’s worth more than £90 to play though. It was £125 the day I played.

Great course. Beautiful location and views Every hole is different and memorable. Rewards a good drive. Condition of fairways was not up to usual standard. Rough needs a cut!

Great course not sure why it not higher in best courses as I have played many courses higher and not a patch on the Kittocks

I booked caddy’s and carts but none was available- limited the enjoyment of the day

Course and greens in fabulous condition. A real challenge, especially when wind blowing which it was. Had the course to ourselves it appeared. Well with the drive up from Glasgow.

Played there last Saturday for the first time and have to say I was really impressed with course and layout, course was wet under foot but given the snow and rain we had it was understandable , will definitely be back again

Always a pleasure to play here but the weather was horrendous with fog and heavy rain. The staff did offer us a voucher to come back another time which was really kind but we had looked forward to playing here again and after a drive of 90 minutes we just wanted to play. The course itself was very wet but the greens were still really quick. It is a really good challenge of golf for all levels. Will look forward to come back and play again it is a stunning venue, hopefully in dry weather next time so we can take in the brilliant scenery.

Always a favourite, course in great condition considering the time of year and amount of rain. Well worth a visit
