Challenging day on the links yesterday as we welcomed Royal Dornoch juniors to Crail GS for a friendly match. New friendships were made while playing over 13 holes on Balcomie Links. Well done to everyone involved!
Crail GS Junior Academy has enjoyed introducing Crail Primary 3/4 pupils to golf over 3 sessions during March. 16 out of 20 pupils in the class had never tried golf before. Learning how to chip, putt and taking part in fun games during school time. ¤Öī ¤Åī’ĖÅŌĆŹŌÖĆ’ĖŤÅī’ĖÅŌĆŹŌÖé’ĖÅ

After 13 years our Membership Secretary Carolyn had her final day working at Crail GS yesterday. Thanks for all your hard work and dedication to the Society. HereŌĆÖs to a long and happy retirement! ¤Äē ¤Äē
Wonderful course and a great clubhouse and staff!! Cannot wait to play it again!!
Was just up for a walk yesterday but have played both courses many times. I hope to become a member one day as the whole place is amazing.’┐Į’┐Į
This course is up there with best courses and what really makes the day so enjoyable is all the staff in both the Pro shop and the clubhouse ¤æī¤æī¤æī
Played my first 3 rounds this week. Met complete strangers on the fist two rounds and boy did the weather show us all itŌĆÖs character. Great courses and surroundings.
Played Craighead Links yesterday, course in fabulous condition, brilliant greens, fast and true. Excellent meal in clubhouse, all in all a great day at Crail
Old Tom Morris course that just oozes with tradition. Beautiful views and hospitality. My caddy, Gordon, was patient, witty, very thorough & made it a very special day for me. Will I come back? Hell yes!
Just a fantastic club. 2 superb courses, Balcomie my favourite. Outstanding service from Alan and his ever smiling staff in a clubhouse with fantastic views out to sea. Food excellent also. Can't wait to get back to play from 15th September.

If you are looking for the spirit of golf you should play Crail.
First time I teed of on The Boathouse I realized ŌĆ£This is it!ŌĆØ
After the round I went into the clubhouse and applied for membership!
I have played both the Balcomie Links and Craighead Links and both are beautiful courses to play. But I must admit that I did fall in love with the Balcomie course with some of the most breath taking views on any links course.
Great course, definitely worth playing, thatŌĆÖs both the Balcomie and Craighead..’┐Į’┐Į’┐Į’┐Į’┐Į
Fantastic, from walking in to a very friendly professional shop who did everything he could to make us feel welcome, played the Balcomie the course was brilliant and the staff in the clubhouse were first class.
Would go back tomorrow.
Craighead links probably one of the best course av played clubhouse was terrific food was great can't wait to come back
Balhomie is a great links course set in an iconic setting and the Craig head an interesting test. All staff we met were very friendly and provided great service. We will be back to play it again!
An absolute hidden gem! Stands toe to toe with any of its more famous neighbors. Layout and location of Crail is absolutely spectacular. If you're on the East Coast it's a must!
Absolutely fantastic. Superior views and play compared to outrageous fees at neighboring courses.
A days golf at Crail is not just a privilege, it is one of the best days golf in Scotland
Brilliant golf courses, excellent facilities and lovely people
When my favourite places in the world to outstanding golf courses with beautiful scenery overlooking the sea. Great test of golf Truly great memories for me
Played the Balcomie brought 42 players through from Easter Moffat Golf Club and enjoyed the 9 hole's that I played as the wind and rain was just to much to take but everybody enjoyed their day and a would reccommend playing the Balcomie and hope to play here one day again and have another sweep outing and hopefully the weather is on our side this time
Balcomie is my favourite course , doesn't get much better than this , also graham and David in pro shop are fantastic guys , great food in clubhouse also , keep up the great work guys cheers ¤Ź╗
