Never 10 minute intervals between Tee Offs!!

I was extremely disappointed when I realized the course was using winter greens on SOME ( Most) of the holes, this was not mentioned when booking, I would not have played otherwise

The actual greens we did get to use were dry and very bumpy/uneven, the course was not very well kept at all,

There were supposed to be 10 minute intervals between Tee offs, The steward overseeing the first Tee told us to Tee off as soon as the two in front had played their second shots on the first hole, we were also caught by the 2 ball behind us by the 3rd Hole and the 2 ball behind them by the 5th and had to let the 2 separate couples play through

Great layout

Hi. Been really happy both times I have at Dougalston. I booked to play at Carluke on the 6th December but the course was closed with no notification from the course or golf now. Last I checked I hadn’t been refunded. Can someone please look into this for me.

Perfect for the Price

Played the course in mid December when the conditions leading up to it had been extremely wet. The full course was in play and was in excellent condition considering the weather. Would definitely recommend

Dougie

Such a challenging golf course is Dougalston, easy on the eye, as it such a lovely looking course, but difficult none the less. Course was very wet in places, greens were on, but not in great condition, but it is December where most courses will be much the same.

Round with my son

We booked this course as its quite close to where we live thought it was a decent price .there was t anybody on the course so very pracefull but having read previous reviews wasnt expecting much.thought the course wasnt too bad considering the time of year and no winter greens which was good and they were in good condition. Fairways a bit wet but has to be expected this time of year. Would like to play the course in the summer and would return.

AVOID IN WINTER

Firstly the course is a tough little course but I wouldn’t go anywhere near it if it’s rained and the winter tee’s are awful

First time playing and was walking around not knowing where to go.

In a whole it’ll be a good course in the summer but don’t go if it’s rained in anytime the week before your tee off

Cored and Sanded Greens

Course was very damp in parts due to recent weather however more so that expected. Majority of greens were also cored and sanded without any advertisement. Sanding of greens was also very poor with large areas basically unplayable. Won't be playing again

Course in poor condition

A high number of the tee boxes were out of use. About half the greens were covered in sand and all of them were bobbly with holes in them. Fairways were fine but tee boxes and greens were terrible. Hard to take the scorecard seriously because of the greens, some of them were literally covered in sand
