Westerwood

Easy access, plenty parking, not a very well stocked shop but has a few golf related items, everything cut as well as can be expected, distance markers aren't always noticeable, greens are a 7/10 which is good for this time of year. A very wet course and paths between each hole are a shambles.

Good layout but wet

Course is a decent track but was very wet and greens and fairways soft. Course and clubhouse area of hotel have slipped since playing years ago. Will give it another go in the summer though. £15 as opposed to £20 would have been more reasonable

Saturday last minute booking

Having never played the course I found the layout excellent - The setting is beautiful and the course is a much more of a test than I though it would be, there are some decent par 4’s and tricky ones at the same time, the 3rd and 5th are true dog legged holes. Being super critical some areas were a little heavy underfoot but it is winter - once dried out this will not be an issue

Great all round course and and a great test for all handicaps

Hidden Gem

Don’t really understand people’s reviews not being as good as I thought this course was brilliant and pretty difficult with a bunch of varied challenging holes that really require good skill set to get round. Whole place is designed brilliantly and for £20 is magnificent value for money.

Some really great holes

Westerwood Golf Course had some notable challenges during my recent visit. The drainage on the course appeared to be very poor, leaving the fairways and rough quite damp throughout the round. This made for some difficult and unstable footing, particularly in the landing areas off the tee.

The tee boxes also seemed to be in need of some maintenance work. Many of them had uneven and patchy grass coverage, which can impact the consistency of tee shots.

Overall, while the course conditions presented some challenges, the layout and green complexes at Westerwood can still make for an enjoyable round of golf. With some improvements to the drainage and tee box maintenance, this could be a solid option for golfers in the area looking for a reasonable test. I'd recommend calling ahead to check on the current course conditions before booking your tee time.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Mixed feedback

Played sat 7th sep for the first time at this course I'm about it 5 years.

Reception staff were good and checked me in fine. Tee was quite busy and the old starter box is no longer in use so you just need to ask about for who's first.

Course very very wet in most places. Greens very slow

Bunkers were not generally in good condition with poor standard of sand

Lay out is good and a good mix of holes between par 3,4 and 5s

Transition areas between holes generally quite poor and since they have redesigned the course the route between 12 and 14 is quite complex.

Pace of play was quite slow on the day but probably not helped with fog and a few specific slow players. Was a 4 hour round for a 2 ball

Clubhouse restaurant was really good with really friendly staff and I thought good value. Would go back to the restaurant in its own right.

It was good getting a Saturday morning tee time but it's a wet long slog and I'm not sure I'd rush back to the golf course for a while

Wet but great.

Great course. Greens were superb. Course was a little bit wet. But thats typical for playing in Scotland. The course was playing long and struggled to reach par 4 holes in 2. But that was probably due to us. Would definitely be back soon. The lady in the pro shop was really friendly and nice to have a chat with.

Buggy paths are awful

The buggy paths are worst I've ever seen. They are loaded with enormous holes. It was almost easier to drive on the rough.

Very good course. At a great price

Course is very good. The sat we played it was saturated due to heavy rain but was playable. It's a good layout with some tricky holes but enjoyable.

Staff were very friendly and the facilities in the hotel are very good. All in all this is a great value for money round. Well with a visit.

Ok

The course was in good condition but there were some distance from some greens to the next tee box. The day we played was really slow and the rough was long so take plenty of balls.

Good value for the aspiring golfer

Teed off at 0830 on a Sunday morning and hardly saw anyone else on the course… my kind of golf. Managed to get a nice practice round in and a great catch up with a friend. I thought the greens were quite inconsistent but I may be a bit harsh given the price of the round!

Decent enough for £22

Of course it could be in better condition but I wasn't expecting Gleneagles quality for £22. We enjoyed our round and will probably play again in the future.
