Dougalston Golf Club

On arrival at the car park we were greeted by a friendly staff member who explained all we needed to know as first time visitors to the course. Also given the current covid situation we obviously couldn’t use the facilities prior or after our round, so it was straight to tee.

The course itself is neat and narrow so if you’re a high handicapper take a few extra balls with you as there’s plenty areas to lose some, even for strong golfers. Other things of note from our round today was that some of the greens hold a fair amount of standing water if there has been a lot of rain the previous evening or day, so we had issues with putting on a number of them. Other than this it was a thoroughly enjoyable day and we will certainly be back.

Great golf course amazing layout and can’t wait to get back would definitely recommend it for everyone great value for money as well.

I booked this through golf now and played on my own. Due to the Covid restrictions the tee times were spaced out so no issues with pace of play. Overall a fantastic course in a beautiful setting. The course was in good condition even with the rain. Some of the holes were extremely tight and tree lined so accuracy is essential. I certainly lost a few balls but it didn't ruin my experience. I would definitely like to play again.

Had a great time at this course 1st time but will definitely be back and highly recommend

I struggled to make my mind up on this course.

I booked through golf now and despite a tough covid19 lockdown situation the staff were friendly and hopeful with no problems with our booking.

Some holes are fantastic, dramatic views, interesting layouts, clever bunkering - the back 9 is far superior to the front 9.

Other holes are stupid and feel just like a route to another part of the property with no thought to the hole itself.

My opinion needs context, I’m a 27 hcp, it was pouring with rain and I didn’t know the course. I’m sure they’ve all influenced my opinion.

The course needs hole maps, too many blind tee shots where you have no idea where you’re going. Too many tight tree lined tee’s. But some holes are fantastic (12 in particular) and the course was in great condition.

If you like tree lined parkland courses you wont be disappointed, this one is very picturesque.

Very tight in places which sees some good shots land in bad spots, so it is tough and frustrating at times but I'd definitely recommend.

Booked a round via golf now over a week ago, got the confirmation email. drove to the club to be met with a hostile member of staff, he told me I didnt have a booking. He wouldnt even check the confirmation I had in my hand.

No attempt to help or look at getting another tee time booked.

Why bother when other clubs would welcome the business rather that treat visitors like an inconvenience.

AVOID

Excellent and played many times. Personally! Not a nicer and very tough course!! Highly recommend

Fantastic challenge again. Beautiful course and highly recommend.

Had a great day out here today hadn't played it for about 10 yrs and still as good as ever course in good condition last 4 holes being hollow tyned but not a big deal greens true and fast staff friendly and clubhouse good choice of food and will definitely visit again

Great course and good setting, need to be accurate off tees etc as its tight in places with loads of wee burns all over the course. The course is in good condition especially the greens. All in all a good challenging course i will certainly play again

Can't get tougher than this. Course immaculate and every time play here gets better. Thoroughly recommended to even a high handicapper like myself as every hole difficult and beautiful course to walk.

Played recently found the course tough you need to be accurate from the tee on the front 9 witch plays on a hill once you make the turn it opens up a bit green we’re good tho and course was very peaceful.

First time playing and was very impressed woth location layout and challenges of the course
