Lochgelly Golf Club is a relatively flat parkland course with views over the Meadows, the Lomonds and the Ochills. The views are worth the price of a round alone. It is located in Fife, Scotland, the heart of golfing country. Visitors have described it as a must-play course when in the area.

The golf course kicks off with a par 5 but only 479 yards. It's the only par 5 on the course and the longest hole at Lochgelly. The course is 2,729 yards, and par is 68.

No. 3 is a par 3, but certainly not a gimme at 222 yards. There are five par 3s on the Lochgelly Golf Club course, spread out liberally, with three on the front nine and two in the back. The back nine ends with a 319-yard par 4.

Lochgelly Golf Club has a pro shop, which is well-stocked by the resident PGA Professional.

Great Value

Played the course for the first time on 10 April so still very early in the season. Relatively speaking the course was in good condition, some real challenging holes, greens weren’t the best and a bit bumpy but for we paid and on a Sunday then no real complaints. Would definitely go back.

A surprising find

Course was in nice condition for late September. Fairways were very dewy at the start but dried out later on. Some greens had been hollow tined so we're a bit bobbley but others were smooth. Second nine very tight but tree lined fairways were attractive to play on. Clubhouse catering not available so can't comment. Very friendly starter and players out on the course. Well worth a visit

Gem of a find!

Picked this out of the ‘Hot Deals’ - was looking for a reasonably priced round within 45 minutes of home and this popped up. Given the price we had low expectations but it surprised us- from arrival at the Pro Shop where we received a lovely welcome, to the course itself was great. Fairways in good conditions and the greens were some of the best we’ve seen at a local club this year. If I had to be picky, aesthetically there’s a lot of drainage ditches but thankfully I was never in them. Overall, a great round of golf.

Great wee course

We were greeted by a very friendly & informative starter who gave us good intel for the course. Beautiful setting and some marvellous holes, some of them a lot trickier than they seem. Overall in great condition, only thing I would say is some of the tees were a bit dubious, but other than that a super course. Afterwards we went in for lunch and again greeted by very friendly staff, food was fabulous as was the hospitality.

Great value and short but challenging course

Lochgelly was very welcoming and great value for money. The fairways and greens are in really good condition and the layout poses a mid handicap golfers with a good challenge. Some great views of the Ochil Hills in the distance and keeping the ball on the fairway is key. Staff and members friendly, welcoming and professional. Will definitely return for another round.

Excellent condition

Played lochgelly with three friends through golfnow for a bargain £14.
The course looks wide open but it's deceptive as there are a number of strategically placed hazards.
Some narrow driving through trees was a regular feature also a couple of water hazards as well.
Course was in great nick especially the greens which were first class.
We have payed more money for a round and was not as enjoyable as Lochgelly.
Would definitely recommend a round.
