This is defintely a course worth playing. Its fun to tee off and finish almost surronded by the village! Friendly staff and not so crowded course. 4:th hole is a short par 3 that you will never forget and on the fifth hole: take the opportunity to check out the oceanwiew and the sandbanks! Great mixture between long and short holes. All together a well kept course!
Definitely worth a visit!

Having played on the likes of Carnoustie, Crail and other links courses, I was aware of the demands of playing links golf and I was not sure what Montrose Medal would hold. However, it was an absolutely excellent course with rolling fairways and lovely greens. Holes 2, 3 and 4 are superb together with testing par 3 16th hole, usually against the wind. As a qualifying course for 1999 Open, it's up 'there' with the best.
I would recommend Montrose to anyone, particularly if you like links courses. The local people are very helpful and friendly. Make the effort and get up there!

My Mother was born and raised in Montrose, Scotland- later moving to the United States with my Father. We used to visit this town every couple of years for an extended stay. I grew up on the Montrose golf courses- first time I ever played, I played the Broomfield. Then finally graduated to the Medal Course. I love playing golf in Scotland, and still enjoy playing Montrose over 30 years later. Thanks for the review- too many times Montrose is in the shadows of more famous British Open courses, when it should be looked upon as one of the best links courses in Scotland.

I trust that Kevin Craig is pulling our leg regarding his prowess as a new golfer. The Broomfield course, while much shorter and flatter than the Medal is by no means 'a piece of cake' due mainly to its small greens. It is ideal for what it was designed - beginners, less able golfers and our more elderly golfing friends who find the flatter course easier on their limbs.

The course is far too small in distance and because I have a massive drive which always goes straight I have only been playing golf six months and have already finished under par on this course. Also I found the greens are too flat.
