Cowdenbeath Golf Club

After a late call-off at the club where I'm a member, by one of my usual golfing buddie's and another one who couldn't make the tee time due to being offered hospitality at his football teams home match, I decided to get a round it at one of my other more local courses and headed to Dora, Cowdenbeath! Although we'd had a lot of rain in the past week, the course, overall, was in good condition, although most holes were playing winter greens, although there were about 4-5 that were on full greens. Clear sunny day, although a bit chilly, (well it was the start of March!).

Friendly welcome at the starter's booth, and although there were a few two and 3 balls waiting I headed out bang on time.

Haven't played the course in almost 10 years, but hasn't changed much, but first time on winter greens. Holes overall were in good conditions, but some were sodden. Only criticism would be the 4th hole, which was a bit of a joke as I could have probably putted the hole as was around 60 - 70 yards in length and downhill.

Other than that, (and the 3 jokers who weren't offering to wave anyone through, so 2 x 2 balls that were in front of me and my fellow paired up single playing partner, had to ask several times if they could play through, and were all allowed only on their 2nd or 3rd time of asking) it was an enjoyable round, and not overly-taxing with the plentiful wide fairways on most holes. Greens overall were in decent conditions, although some of the winter greens, could have been positioned better!

Allowed to book course for 17 pounds each and when we got there course was closed. Robbed.

I was stunned how good this course was. The fairways are wide and the length of the holes are mostly plus 300 yards. The course is surrounded by wind turbines that adds to the ambience of nature in harmony with it surroundings.
The course has no shared fairways or Greens, unlike some other courses that cut corners and price themselves by snobbery not quality. The only down side was my ⛳, if your ball goes in the rough or trees it's a goner.

I definitely would play here again.

Lovely course in great condition. Really enjoyed my round and will be back

This is the 3rd time I've played here but this time the greens were in poor condition which was a little surprising as it was their Open Competition the day before.lots of patches with very little grass on them and v bumpy.the course in general is pretty good and it's definitely good value for money when you are only paying £20

Played at Cowdenbeath GC today and had a good round.
Staff really friendly.
Course was in good condition and a very good layout.
Relatively flat course and an easy walk.
Didn’t try the food in the clubhouse as we were in a hurry as had a Birthday party to get to.
Would recommend this course to anyone.
Fantastic value.

Great municipal course. Greens and fairways in great knick

The 4 ball in front would not let us play through ,which normally happens if they are playing
slow .no reflection on club (not clubs fault.)great course first time.,will play again.

Course in great condition as are greens good weather staff friendly overall a good course gives you a chance and tests you as well

Played today for the first time today and would play again. Course in very good condition and greens very firm and true. Mix of short and long par 3’s which was good, only slight negative is that the course layout is quite ‘samey’ in terms of the par 4’s. For a golf day for a lot of people this course would be perfect, as would cater for all types of players. Very good value for money, and a thoroughly enjoyable afternoons golf.

plenty of room all the way round on this long and wide open course so good fun
