The Debate Rages On at Kinross! Which Golf Course Will You Enjoy the Most?

Kinross offers two courses:

The Bruce and The Montgomery
     If you come across a group or society that has spent the day Golfers on The Montgomeryplaying both courses, ask the golfers which course they enjoyed the most. Some will say “The Bruce” while others will say “The Montgomery.” The best way to answer the question for yourself is to play them both; come for the day or take advantage of one our value-laden stay-and-play packages.

     Both courses are mature and well-maintained and provide excellent examples of Scottish parkland golf with the added bonus of magnificent views over Loch Leven to the West Lomond Hills. The owners renovated and improved both courses three years ago and the work has significantly added to the playability and enjoyment.

     Kinross is located south of Perth just off the M90 on the banks of Loch Leven. Getting to Kinross is easy, especially from the Central Belt: drive time to Glasgow is 60 minutes and 30 minutes to Edinburgh. Many repeat visitors come from all over the United Kingdom and Europe.

Eleven Reasons Golfers Enjoy their Golf at Kinross

1.    Wide fairways mean more enjoyable golf. At Kinross, we understand that you're here on holiday or that you're part of a group; some in the group may not be regular golfers. Thus we have wide fairways with manageable semi rough so that your game should be more enjoyable. However, with most fairways bordered by beech, pines, birch, larch, and mature oak trees, a really wild shot may prompt an immediate 'reload'.

2.    Wonderful views and a relaxing environment. At Kinross, you get magnificent views of the West Lomond Hills from practically every hole. You're not quite in The Highlands proper but it feels like you are.

3.    At Kinross, we have two 18 hole golf courses that provide golfers with variety and flexibility. When a very large group of 70+ golfers comes to Kinross, they can have exclusive use of one of the courses for the day, leaving smaller groups and individuals with the other course. And with two courses, we offer an exciting variety so that you don't get bored of playing the same course over and over.

4.    Well-kept greens and fairways. At Kinross, you get a good lie in the fairway and a well-struck putt is rewarded with a good result. You'll find that our conditioning rivals that of courses that cost significantly more.

5.    Our famous stay-and-play packages provide some of the best value in this golf-rich area. By far the best value at Kinross is a stay-and-play package.

6.    Sensible greens. At some courses, especially more modern courses, it seems that an evil relative of Dr. Frankenstein designed the greens. Not so at Kinross where the greens are challenging with a range of interesting contours.

7.    Easy to walk yet not totally flat. Located on the banks of Loch Leven, Kinross is relatively flat and easy to walk. Yet there's enough undulation to provide ample architectural interest.

8.    Excellent dining with plenty of options. Within our setup in Kinross, there are no less than five places to eat and drink. Choices range from simple club house food award-winning dining and everything in between. Have a holiday splurge or stick to a budget. The choice is yours.

9.    Easy to get to means less time in the car and more time playing golf. Kinross offers great Scottish golf without the sometimes difficult and tedious driving. We're less than a mile from Junction 6 on the M90 and we're about 60 minutes from Glasgow and 30 minutes from Edinburgh. And if you plan to make Kinross your “base of operations” as you raid the wonderful golf that's in the area, Kinross is central to everything. Again, less driving and more golf.

10.    Everything on-site (and en-suite) so there's no driving once you arrive. The walk from the first tees to our two on-site hotels takes less than five minutes and that's if you're dawdling. The Green Hotel is four star and has a traditional feel. The Windlestrae is three star and more contemporary. All rooms are en-suite and well-equipped. But the big bonus for the golfer is the proximity to the golf: roll out of bed, enjoy a full Scottish breakfast, organise your game, and you're on the first tee almost instantly.

11.    A family atmosphere means you can relax and enjoy the golf and the hotels. Kinross is NOT a golf club that tolerates visitors only on certain days and then relegates them to a 1930s converted milking shed at the back of the car park. Kinross enthusiastically welcomes visitors as friends 7 days a week and you'll meet affable golfers in the club house and in the hotels. There's nothing “stuffy” about the golf at Kinross.

11a.     A good golf course for occasional golfers. We understand that many of our group golfers will be new or infrequent golfers. They too can enjoy golf at Kinross. Our golf professionals can organise group-friendly competitions like a Texas Scramble so that everyone feels like they are part of the team.

11b.     A good golf course for the serious golfer! While both The Bruce and The Montgomery are excellent courses for the average golfer, both courses, when played from the white tees, are more difficult and challenging than they appear, even for the county player. If you're a low-handicapper, both courses will keep you on your toes.
