As I'm not a golfer I can't comment on the course or related facilities themselves but it was getting a lot of use on Easter Saturday so that probably speaks for itself.

As a boy, I used to loiter around here stealing golfballs. As a manboy, I go for private functions…read moreas a respectable citizen. Unfortunately, the majority of the times I have been here have been for funerals but it must be said, it is a lovely place for private functions like weddings with a fair few footballers going here on a number of occasions. It is primarily a golf club, with a great 18 hole course along with bowling green. A lovely place, tucked well away from the houses nearby. Not too fancy, but still quite elitist as far as sports clubs go with a long waiting list.

Colville Park has become the popular wedding venue for Motherwellians getting betrothed. The…read morepretty, leafy surroundings make for a perfect picture, and the sizeable halls can hold all of your excited wedding guests easily, with ample dancing space! The club does meals for non-patrons during the week too, with a lunchtime menu for anyone who fancies a bit of a swish lunch, at a very affordable price. Very nice with lovely grounds, have a look at the website if you are planning a wedding or special occasion, and i think you will b pleasantly surprised!

This is one of the best links golf courses in Scotland if not the world. Difficult to get to from…read moreEdinburgh - it is a long but stunning drive. You can also fly from Glasgow Airport. The first hole is one of the best opening holes in golf hitting over the Machrihanish beach. Even if you do take on too much beach you usually still have a shot from the firm sand. Retire to the clubhouse to sample the superb local Springbank malt. You will definitely want to come back to play it again.

This must be one of the best if least known links courses in Scotland. Its a long haul to get…read morethere. The numerous bunkers, small but well tended green, punishing rough and an ever present wind from a breeze to a full blown gale make it a superb test of golf. When you think you have mastered it the weather and wind will change and its a different course. The first hole really is one of the most testing in the world. After a great days golf you will find the warmest of welcomes in the Clubhouse which offers good food and an extensive range of whisky

I expected more from a course of this repute. Use a trolly and skip caddies at Turnberry ... or perhaps skip Turnberry? There are many other options nearer Troon and Prestwick!

The quality of the course can vary but it is fairly satisfactory at this present day. One of the only downsides is the locker room because things have moved on since the 1970's so the golf club would look so much better if it was improved like the bar. The vast majority of members here are all really cheery (hopefully that will continue) and the boys in the pro shop are extremely well natured giving top quality lessons. A perfect club for beginner golfers or professional golfers with a fantastic course home to breathtaking views of the Clyde, Loch Lomond and Glen Fruin.
