Kinghorn Golf Club

God shortish course with excellent fast greens.. Views are tremendous

Firstly let me say - great wee course, tricky holes, greens lightning fast and plenty lumps and bumps as a links course should have.
Staff great in clubhouse. Cant complain, lovely wee place.

Actually a brilliant tester, dont let the yaradage fool you.

**IMPORTANT BIT** - A 6-BALL WERE OUT AT 9.30 OR SO ON A SATURDAY MORNING. THEY HELD UP EVERY GROUP BEHIND THEM, SO MUCH SO THAT OUR 3 BALL TOOK JUST OVER 4 HOURS TO COMPLETE A SHORT COURSE. NO-ONE TO CHECK OR STOP THIS. DISGRACEFUL WASTE OF TIME.

Would I play again? Definitely...... but i'd phone first to ensure no 6 ball would be out in front

Very much an old school links, with nature playing its role in how challenging it’ll be. At less than 6000 yards and a par 65 it’s not a long slog, and with a fair wind and a free run it’s possible to whizz round in sub 3 hours. The layout has a good mix and it’s easy to imagine how the course was set down to fit with the contours of what was available. There’s some really quite challenging holes, particularly the par 3 2nd, but there are loads of scoring opportunities. A lot will depend on conditions and the luck of the bounce (it is proper links golf!). Fairways are a bit scruffy, mostly left to nature. Loads of undulations and rabbit scrapings. Tee boxes could also do with a bit of tlc. However the greens are in excellent nick. Very true and some with quite severe slopes, but not gimmicky as you find in some ‘modern’ links (here’s looking at you Castle course in St Andrew’s!).
Club house looks quite nice and we had a warm, friendly welcome. Worth giving them a call to check for deals.
Last but not least it’s worth mentioning the views - they really are spectacular. Uninterrupted over the Forth to Inchkeith and beyond to Auld Reekie herself. Worth the round for this alone. But I’d still play it for the golf - it was great fun and felt a bit like taking a step back in time.

Lovely day golfing on the links, some bald areas and rabbit holes in Fairways but lots of fun holes, and impeccable greens!
Staff and members were all super friendly as well ⛳️😀

Superb greens definitely worth the money and I will be back ⭐️

Back 9 was a bit slow,greens were mint quiky course.
Definitely play again

We played Kinghorn on a very windy day so it was extra challenging. Some interesting holes & undulating fairways. Finishes with 4 par 3s.
The starter was very friendly & explained the layout of the first 5 holes. Shame I was unable to follow his advice!

Love the quirky holes. The greens were excellent however very dry fairways. We need rain!

This was my playing Kinghorn for the 3rd time, and despite the short length it was a good challenge due to rock hard fairways and a strong wind. Snuck a few holes off the whites which make the course much more fun/challenging, holes vary from very difficult (8 and 13 into wind) 420 yard par 4 to the very easy short par 4's of circa 300 yards. Key in such dry conditions to be on the low side of the hole, otherwise impossible to hold the greens! Would be a different game altogether on spring/autumn when softer. Very worth the £18 and would highly reccomend to test your game from 100 yards in!

Very friendly staff, great course condition and challenging course. Overall a fun day out and a classic Scottish course which I would play again..

Greens were in perfect condition
Very fast and true
If on wrong side of hole it was lighting fast coming back downhill
Excellent value for money
Not a long course but definitely more than what the slope rating states

A tough evening round with some gusting wind added to the fun. Greens which will test everyone but before you get that chance making the right shot selection is vital

Booked a T time for 12:20, drove a hour from Glasgow to find the course closed.
Why accept payment for T times and not have the course open is beyond me
