Lovely 9 holes

We booked on golfnow for a bargain price and had a lovely lunchtime 9 holes at Oatridge. The course is in good condition after the winter and we really enjoyed it - plenty of interest and a good difficulty for us (we play off 15 and 20). There are different tee positions for the second 9 so it would have been great for a full 18 too.
The clubhouse was relatively basic but very clean and functional - and the staff were friendly and helpful.
Would definitely recommend!

Very nice nine-hole course

This is a fairly short and moderately easy course to play but has enough challenges to make it interesting. Some of the greens are well-guarded. A few slopes to negotiate but not hard on the feet by any means. There is a good-size putting green and a short game practice area too. There is no restaurant or cafe but the starter's hut has a range of snacks and hot drinks. Overall, very enjoyable and excellent value for money.

Superb 9 hole course

Great 9 hole layout, easy walking. Course was in really nice condition and greens very fast, true and immaculate. Pleasure to putt on. Course would suit mid to high hc but greens will impress and test any golfer no matter how good.

Lovely well maintained course

Excellent 9 hole course expertly maintained with some challenging holes but not too intimidating for newer or returning players. Relatively short par 4s so it's great for touching up the short game, greens are pristine (and very fast) Highly recommend for all golf levels and excellent value for money :D

Nice little course

First time playing this course. Booked in for 3 of us to play 18 holes. To start with there's a Nice little chipping and putting area with a couple of driving nets for a warm up. Practice green ran very similar to the greens (very fast). The holes themselves are quiet short but this added to our experience and enjoyment. Perfect for course for my 14 year son on as well. All in all a very enjoyable 18 holes, I will definitely be back and would recommend this course.

Enjoyable round

This is a really nice course with a good amount of challenge over its 9 holes. Course condition is better than a lot of pricier courses. We enjoyed playing 18 holes and found the second time round the 9 holes was as enjoyable as the first.
