    This is my second time here. First was years ago for a New Year's party that was held here and back…read morethen it was fun. Fast forward to now, we stopped in again for some music and mingling on New Year's Day. It was also great and nice to have family that's members which makes the visit memorable. Just being introduced to the staff and other members whom were all very lovely made us feel very welcomed. Takes the ease off of something new even though I've been. The place was already lively when we walked in. The band was going and keeping everyone entertained. The crowd was all there for the same reason, enjoying the music and start of new years. Kids running around, beers and drinks kept rolling, music keeping everyone entertained and even on the dance floor. Everyone knows each other which makes it more pleasant. A fun afternoon just enjoying great company and good music. The clubhouse isn't overly big but welcoming. There's a bar inside which also serves food. The course is quite beautiful. Smaller compared to others in Scotland but it does have its charm. And of course, it's very green and well maintained....lol.... Better be green with all the rain.... We'll see when the next time I'm here for the holidays if they'll have something going on.

    I played Glencruitten May 2, 2011. I was planning playing golf by myself when a gentilman named…read moreMartin asked if we could pair up? I said sure. A better decsion I don't think I could have made. Not only was he local but a very good player and he also was like a caddie to me. No WAY can you play this course for the first time by yourself. This is a HARD course to read for the first time. 5-6 holes are blind up hill shots where you do not know where or how large the greens are. There were times I thought to hit left and Martin said no hit right. There were times I thought I had to aim for the green (flag) and he said no hit short or to the left/right of the green and let your ball role. All can say it is a greal little course, very challenging. a LOT of up hill and down hill walking. Great people that run the course. No real dress code (You can wear shorts) Just a great golf expereince!

    I'm not a golfer, so I can only comment on the aesthetic qualities of this public golf course!…read more It's the first one of its kind I've come across and knowing how expensive golf memberships can be, I think it's a fantastic idea. Having relocated to Bruntsfield for the last month or so, I've had to walk through the Links to the adjoining Meadows park at least fifty times! It's been pleasant and relaxing though, and like all the public parks in Edinburgh it's wonderfully maintained; old gnarley trees not out of place in Edins and plenty of plush, green grass! Size-wise, there are no extensive holes, and I'd say it's a place better designed to practice putting. It's well utilized by the location population, usually irrespective of the weather, and for the non-golfing folk such as myself, it's a great place to relax with a book or have a little picnic. Granted you MIGHT get hit in the head by a golf ball, but there are areas where this risk is significantly reduced.

    The Links are a hillier alternative to Meadows. It's also way emptier most of the time. Beware of…read moregolfers, though. They're merciless, or at least I generally assume they are. I'd say it's a safe assumption to make of all people who wield metal rods. And hit things with it. On purpose. Rumour goes that the Links are hilly because there are thousands of plague victims buried there. The same goes for Greyfriar's Graveyard. But that makes more sense than a public park. The Links has a spectacular view of Arthur's Seat (on the days there isn't fog and generally miserable weather), and as you walk up towards the end of the park and look up towards Bruntsfield you'll get a great glimpse of the waterfront too. In the Summertime, it's a perfect place to go if you're feeling particularly sentimental at around 4 in the morning after a party or two, to watch the sunrise. Yes, the sun rises around 4-5 am here now. You may as well go crazy and watch the sunset around 10-11 from there too!

    Fort William town is in Scotland and is situated near to an expanse of water, a truly beautiful…read moreplace to visit. There are some car parking areas around the town. The town of Fort William is full of character and the atmosphere is pleasant, it is on one main stretch and there are little roads and paths leading off it too. The town is attractive, clean, well maintained, friendly and just a nice size to browse. There are some places to sit. There are a good few shops to look around including groceries, clothing shops (lots of mountain wear, hiking, walking, rainproof jackets etc) gift shops, bars and a great selection of places to eat. We stayed for a week in Fort William and the restaraunts where all wonderful, the food was of a high standard and the welcome from the staff was superb. Really friendly people. If you go down to the water front you can have a very pleasant stroll and the views are awesome. Peaceful and relaxing.....bliss. If you are very lucky you may spot the odd seal. Fort William is in a great location to access the surrounding area which includes the awesome Ben Nevis range...you can go up via cable car to part of the range.....views are out of this worldincredible. Also there is the famous Loch Ness not too far away. A car is an advantage to get around this beautiful area. This has to be one of my favourite places to be and I Highly Recommend it.

There is of course Ben Nevis, which has many climbing trails and a gondola cable-car. There are many local shops which sell tourist good and cute keep-sakes, as well as this there is a shopping centre which features some high-street stores.

    The last place I would have expected to find a golf course was inside a public park, but that's…read moreexactly what I found on a walk through Alexandra Park! I'm not a huge fan of golf (since I suck!) but my boyfriend & his brother have been teaching me the basics on this course, plus I really like how they have shaped the course around the park as it fits in perfectly with all the walk ways and other scenery. The course starts just behind the bowling green's towards the back of the park and inside the bowling green area is the building where the admission for the course is "paid" (although from what I've seen very few people actually pay to play here). The course has 9 holes, most of which are a par 3, with three par 4's. I'd say the course is well suited to beginners and moderate players, you're certainly not going to see a Tiger Woods level player teeing off here! I would say that the course is also kept in pretty good condition as The fairways & greens are very good but the tee off areas could be doing with some maintenance. I think this is a pretty good course in general with some good challenges for those just starting out like myself. A few negatives to point out would be that, because the course is in a public park, there is very little security so it can be a common occurrence finding yourself trying to avoid beer bottles or cans with your feet as you're taking certain shots. Also, don't be surprised if some holes are missing the flag as some goofballs seem to think it's cool to take these which can cause some confusion aiming shots blindly at the green! The final thing I would say that is super frustrating is that because the course is very spread out, you can often find people randomly jumping onto the course & beginning their round from random holes.....very annoying when they decide to jump on at the hole in front of the one you are currently on holding up your round!! All in all I think the course is pretty good in spite of those negatives. It's very ideally located, well maintained and a good course for people of average skill level, which I'd imagine most of the people who play here are at!
