We didn't plan to play this course but our original course, a little further south, was closed due to flooding. They managed to squeeze us on, but in truth we hardly saw another golfer due to the way the course is laid out, with rolling hills and avenues of trees. The course was in good condition, though a couple of the greens (especially the 18th) were patchy. Each hole makes you think. Sometimes you need to go long, other times lay up short before one of the streams or lakes. The par 3 8th, 140 yards over water, is a beautiful hole (to watch, though a little intimidating to actually play). The par 4 10th is also memorable, partly due to the water hazard protecting the green and partly due to hundreds of frogs protecting the water hazard !! Excellent course, good facilities and good food. Worth a visit.

What a course! We stayed at the 'Grange so the golf only cost us £17.00 a round. We Played it twice in a week and still didn't get enough. I'll never forget the par 3 eighth, 140 yards or so of water between you and the green! Following that little appetiser is the long par 5. This is almost a double dog-leg, right and left. The next hole, the 10th also has water and a good drive can be punished by the large tree in the middle of the fairway. The 18th is only 370 yards but it is all uphill! Get on in 2 and your smoking!! All in all a great course and I can't wait to play it again when next I visit.

I first played at Letham Grange last year (97) when I was staying with some relations of mine in one of the old farm houses on the estate, which is owned by my cousins grand parents.
During our stay we attempted the old course about three times only managing to finish it once, due to the fact that we were just picking up the game and had played earlier that year, but still hitting the ball all over the place.
There are some magnificent holes like the par 3, 4th (?) where you play down to a lake, with the summer green over the lake and the winter just to the front and left. Very challenging in summer. Some of the holes are amazingly long swooping over the landscape, which in places, looks as mature as some late 19 century courses. Not to be missed.
If you're not feeling like a long round, try getting a buggy for a reasonable price, there are plenty, but I'm not sure of availability on weekends, or there is the new course.
