Scotland Yards Golf Club
About
Scotland Yards Golf Club, as its name implies, has a traditional links-style layout that is reminiscent of the traditional links courses of England and Scotland. It offers the experience of classic Scottish golf with the convenient of being only 20 miles north of Tampa. The golf course tumbles across the gently rolling hills of west central Florida. The course plays long and it features wildly undulating greens that require tremendous accuracy. True to its links nature, there is little water but there are plenty of pot bunkers treacherously lurking throughout. The signature hole is the par-5 second. At 554 yards, it is the longest hole on the course and it is only rarely reached in two. The demanding third shot is uphill to a green that is fiercely guarded in front by two massive mounds and pot bunkers.

Worth it for cheap
It's much improved over when I played here about 4 years ago, when it was an absolute dump of a course. I swore I would never come back, but another golfer convinced me. Greens are solid ( no bare spots) but VERY slow. Tees and fairways seem ok for the season. Fairly straight forward layout, nothing exciting. I only paid $22 on a hot deal, so I can't complain. It has value for $35 or less. Staff is friendly and the restaurant/bar has always been very good.
Workers are friendly and pleasant. Greens were all in pretty good shape just a little slow. And the fairways are very green and we’ll defined. Rough is very playable and there are a fix of wide open holes and holes that require a more accurate shot of the tee. Fun course
Play and enjoy
Fairways and greens were groomed and maintenaned very well
Much improved from a. Year ago.
Greens small and slow
Small, slow greens were actually a good combination because a lot of chipping and putting from off the green. Need to have head on swivel because course layout puts cart paths in front of tee boxes. Only minus was lady at front desk did not seem to know what she was doing. Hot deal was definitely great.
Great improvements !
Big difference from a year ago. All aspects are better. From tee to green. Great value.
