Comments: Laid out over the Garnkirk estate, this is a well-established parkland layout... Fairways are fairly flat but also pretty tight... There are 63 bunkers on the course, so it might be a good idea to brush up on your sand play before you pay this course a visit. . . Hardest hole on the course is definitely the par-4 13th: it's a 453-yard two­shotter with the approach played to an elevated green. If that's not enough you also have to avoid a large oak tree that is positioned in the middle of the fairway. . . Par­35th is the strongest of the three short holes - plays downhill to a slightly elevated green.
