Rating 67.2

Lochgelly Golf Club is a relatively flat parkland course with views over the Meadows, the Lomonds and the Ochills. The views are worth the price of a round alone. It is located in Fife, Scotland, the heart of golfing country. Visitors have described it as a must-play course when in the area.

The golf course kicks off with a par 5 but only 479 yards. It's the only par 5 on the course and the longest hole at Lochgelly. The course is 5,454 yards, and par is 68.

No. 3 is a par 3, but certainly not a gimme at 222 yards. There are five par 3s on the Lochgelly Golf Club course, spread out liberally, with three on the front nine and two in the back. The back nine ends with a 319-yard par 4.

Lochgelly Golf Club has a pro shop, which is well-stocked by the resident PGA Professional.

Lovely scenery, not a great layout

Beautiful course but the entire course seems to be crushed into a space not fit for a full 18holes. There’s some lovely scenery, but there are both shared tee boxes and a shared green, sometimes you’re playing over greens and other fairways. Worth playing however as it is very well maintained and staff are very helpful and friendly. Green keeper does do a good job with the tricky layout.

An interesting and varied layout, Lochgelly posed some thoughtful club selections - driver not recommended at some of the par 4s. A cold but windless day when I played in late April with the greens in good order for early season. With so many courses to choose from in Fife, this should be on a list of those to try.
