Good value for money

A nice interesting course and good value for money, played for just under £20. Par 4’s are relatively short but you have to think carefully about position off tee. Greens in good condition,very large so you can be left with quite a few long putts. Staff friendly and helpful

Lovely course

We thoroughly enjoyed our round of golf although we had greens that had been recently worked on and not at their truest! Understand need to do maintenance, we were just unfortunate,

Lovely course and scenery

The 3 of us enjoyed the round of golf, unfortunately for us the greens had had some work done on them, so they were difficult to gauge, totally expected, as course work needs to be done,hopefully next time they will be at their best.but overall a nice way to enjoy 4 hours in the fresh air

Me Watson

Great course to play very clean and tidy with a great club house and staff, course was in good condition but the greens had just been aerated so was hard to get a solid read on them other than that was lovely, pace of play was extremely slow though had a group of 3 ahead then a group of two and another group of three so was a slow Sunday. Altogether was a great experience would recommend to anyone to try the course and will be playing again.

Pay and play value for money

I have played Crane since it opened 32? Odd years ago and it is still my favourite pay and play course.

It has plenty of room for big hitters or those who like to be friendly and spread the shots around adjoining fairways and get back in line relatively easily.

Golfers of all styles and abilities will enjoy it as we did last week particularly the last three holes and culminating in happy golfers getting par on the last green.

Green keepers have done a Stirling job after required maintenance the greens and fairways are excellent and challenging with the recent rain adding to the equation. Staff helpful and friendly and buggies available and fun to use! 19th hole allows us to intimidate those finishing as they are overlooked from the patio but the beer and cider is cold and the staff and food are warm and friendly. Thanks for a great experience

Nice experience

Lovely quiet location. Pro was very welcoming and informative. Fairly straightforward layout with

quite wide fairways. A few water hazards and greens in superb, quick condition. Nice clubhouse and catering was available until quite late.

Impressive

Fantastic facilities lovely course.. greens are currently like lightening which didn’t help my game.. but if you are after a challenge then this is definitely the one for you.

Lovely bar and the staff were super friendly. Lad in the pro shop gave me a detailed description of the course as it was my first time there and the bar staff actually took the time to ask me if I enjoyed my round which I thought was a lovely touch. And the balcony is stunning!

Will definitely be back once my games improved

The grain on the greens a little difficult to read but course fairly dry overall. Possible to score well for those hitting the fairways regularly

Very wet

The greens were fine, but the fairways were barely playable! I have played there before and it's always been good. Just unlucky with the weather.
