Good course great value

Course was quiet, probably due to it being Hogmanay.

Winter greens were in good condition, course layout was good.

Other members and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

First timer 29/12

Unfortunately bad timing, no pro shop open and access to bar area was by keypad and no one around, course was wet and soggy in places but after the amount of rain it was actually not that bad, due to conditions having to play of mats on fairways but all green.s in play and in remarkably good condition for the time of year, overall worth playing but not around the holiday season.

Thick Fog

On arrival course covered in thick mist unable to see the ball from the tees but managed not to lose a ball despite that. After 9 holes mist lifted and could finally see the course seemed very nice. Play was held up by two threesomes ahead playing quite slow ended up joining the twosome in front of me because we were waiting all the time. Turned out well the two members were really nice guys and enjoyed playing with them. They had been members for 20 odd years. All in all first 9 holes difficult couldn’t see a thing second nine nice course would play again. Only downside is the road leading into the course its very narrow with few passing places.

Balmore

Excellent course with food available in the Clubhouse and a well stocked Pro Shop. The Course itself is well laid out and whilst not the longest still provides a challenging test to most Golfers. It was in excellent condition when we played and the Greens ran true and quick. The members are very friendly and the pace of play was good. Went around in just over 3 hours and thoroughly enjoyed the Round. Good value for money and will definitely be back.

Great Day of Golf

Arranged the round to celebrate a family birthday.

Met by Dougie, the pro, who was very friendly and helpful. The course was set up for a competition to be held later which was called The Greenkeeper's Revenge, where all the pins had been set in the most difficult position on each green. This certainly made putting a bit of a challenge. The course was in great condition and the greens well maintained and very fast.

All four of us in our group have played Balmore quite a few times in the past, and we all look forward to playing there again sometime.

Cool day out

Enjoyed the course which was easy to walk not overly tired at the end. Comment below noted poor greens but that wasn't the case from what I played. All good in terms of greens and general course conditions. There were groups in front of me but even playing as a single behind these the play moved along nicely. Can't really think of anything negative to say about the course so happy days.

Day out away from our course

We choose balmore as we heard it was a nice course from folk who played it before a few years back but I feel it was poor quality for a day out away from our own course (Caldwell) the difference was night & day tbh the greens are all too long & bumpy very hairy the worst I’ve played on in a long time I’ve played on better council ran courses & to make things worse the 4 ball in front of us held us up all day & never let us play through we spent as much time on the tee boxes as we did playing the holes I can understand that happens sometimes in golf but we honestly considered walking off at the 12th hole only reason we never as we didn’t want to just walk the course putting others off their game it was a waste of money & I will ne et go back or recommend it to anyone.
