Mar Hall Golf & Spa Resort - Earl of Mar Golf Course
About
Located west of Glasgow, Earl of Mar Golf Club overlooks the River Clyde with views that stretch beyond the Kilpatrick Hills. A scenic forest filled with more than 250 chestnut and beech trees shaped the design of the course, carving the doglegs and framing the greens. It has a traditional parkland layout that offers a fair amount of challenges balanced by generous fairways that are beginner-friendly. Many holes present interesting risk-reward opportunities where good strategy and some skill will get you far, but they are not too punishing if you are slightly errant. Weaving through the trees requires accuracy and numerous strategically placed bunkers emphasize its importance even further. There are only a few holes that play right alongside the river though golfers will enjoy scenic views on almost every hole.

Charged £2 for diet coke which had £1.09 price on it.
A few things ruined a brilliant day yesterday, first up being charged £2 despite the bottle clearly saying £1.09 on it. When I point this out, the person said they just charged what the till said.
2nd issue, we booked 12.00 tee off. As we make our way to the tee a member asks if we're 11.50. We explain no, we're 12.00. The member suggests they are 12.00 and shows me the running order and true enough my booking is 12.16. I show them my email with 12.00 on it.
Anyway we let them go and wait till 12.16. Bit of a mess really.
3rd issue there is an issue with the Scottish golf app, we played off the yellows but the course rating for the whites seems to have been applied. I can see we did pick yellows, it says on the score card.
Course was brilliant though.
Some golfnow info is wrong.
Thoroughly enjoyed our round of golf, many bunkers to negotiate and some very long holes. This site states trolleys are not permitted but in fact they are and there are trolleys for hire. The morning tee off times only allow booking for a minimum of 3 golfers, this is also incorrect, the pro shop staff who were cheerful and helpful could not understand why the 2 points above were listed on golfnow.
Value
23 pound round this track is decent value .
Greens were very slow , not a lot of run on the course but weather has been dreadful , would like to see how she looks come august .
For the money , can't complain
Booked the morning of the game. Got to the course and it was closed. Had phoned the coursed prior to booking to check if open and no answer. Needs to be some communication between golf now and the course. Absolute waste of time.
Excellent at Mar Hall today
Mar Hall was in excellent condition today. Very few winter tees , no winter greens and the fairways were nice and firm and in top condition for late November. Very enjoyable round on a great links like course close to Glasgow.
Mar Hall Golf Course
A challenging course which suits long hitters but perfectly playable for the average golfers. Holes are varied making for an interesting round of golf. Very attractive course to play with interesting views of the River Clyde. Greens true but a bit patchy in places probably due to the long dry period we have just had. Off course facilities excellent. Will return to play again.
Marr Hall
Had a great day at Marr Hall ,golf course was in great shape for this time of year the greens still had some sand on them but the ball ran fine on them. The staff were very friendly and had no problem checking in. Hope to go back for a game soon.
Mar Hall
An excellent test of golf. Course is hard but fair. Great mixture of holes in an stunning setting.
Course was in very good condition. Staff and members/players all very friendly.
Mar Hall review
Superb course and in great condition, I'll be back in a few weeks!
Nice course
Played here on Sunday night. Course in lovely condition. Pace of play good. Great welcome from the pro Andrew. Would definitely recommend playing.
Skowest round u've ever played
Played saturday past and the pace of play was terrible. At each tee you were waiting around 15 minutes before you could then enter onto the play due to the que in front.
Front nine was decent. Can see the greens are still to grt to there true way. Back nine looked great but ended up coming off at the 10th as it 3 hours 30 mins to ger to that point.
Was looking forward to playing as the resort itself is fantastic. Wouldn't pay the money for the golf again unfortunatly.
Dangerous and unplayable
I have played the course several times and love it. However I played on Sunday 5th of February and the course was unplayable. The tee's we're poor quality mats. If it was a grass tee you struggled to stay on your feet as it was a bog. Very disappointed as I took 3 others that have never played the course. At £104 for a 4 ball you think your getting a bargain. Unfortunately this is not the case. I play at paisley golf club. My own course blows this out the water condition wise.
Winter round
Course is in good condition for the time of year. Very friendly staff & a mix of length of holes on a nice layout. Well worth a visit.
Will try again
Unfortunately the weather took the shine off my day but will definitely be trying here again in the summer, liked the layout with different types of holes & lengths & a very easy golf course to walk
