1 Night, 1 Round
The Cally Palace Hotel is located just outside Gatehouse of Fleet in Dumfries & Galloway. The hotel’s wonderful location, within its own grounds, in the beautiful and unspoilt south-west of Scotland is a world away from daily life.
The Cally Palace has its own 18 hole parkland golf course, and it is one of the finest Dumfries & Galloway Golf Clubs in the area.

1 Night, 2 Rounds
2 Nights, 2 Rounds
3 Nights, 3 Rounds
Designed by the well known golf architect Tom Macaulay, the Cally Course opened in 1994. Sculpted into the parkland surrounding the hotel, its maturity belies its age, achieved by using the natural contours of the land and the magnificent trees, the hidden burns and the Cally Lake.
The course is open to hotel guests as part of a golfing break allowing you to enjoy the hotel and play a round in one relaxing golfing holiday. As you play the course, there are wonderful views of Cardoness Castle, Rutherford's Monument and the Fleet Estuary. Whatever the standard of your game, you are sure to enjoy the course, and to work up a healthy appetite for the evening's culinary delights.
Cally Palace was originally an 18th century country mansion just outside Gatehouse of Fleet and is now a wonderful golf hotel in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. Step back to a time of period style and elegance while enjoying all the modern comforts of a four-star golf hotel. The hotel’s 56 bedrooms combine spacious accommodation with views of the estate grounds and the Dumfries & Galloway countryside beyond. Two huge marble pillars frame the entrance hall, which leads into the Bow Lounge with its magnificent gilt cupola ceiling. The warmth of the Scottish welcome will impress as much as the opulence of the surroundings.
Using only the freshest and finest ingredients, the AA Rosette restaurant uses only the freshest and finest ingredients to create dishes full of flavour to make sure you receive a real taste of Scotland. The sunny conservatory is a wonderful place to relax, whether after an energetic round of golf, or just to escape modern day pressures. Enjoy a drink from the adjoining cocktail bar, where snacks and refreshments are available throughout the day.

From the moment you enter the drive you know you are somewhere special. The hotel is full of old world charm and so so relaxing. The staff are amazing and nothing is too much trouble . Why have I not been here before!

Excellent food, friendly and efficient staff. Large comfortable room. Perfect as a base for golfers. Hotel a little tired, typical old country house.

Staff were very friendly and attentive. Food imaginative. Room in the Forrest wing was large with a super view, although we were in one which hadn't been upgraded. Unfortunately our room wasn't serviced on our second day so we had to ask for tea tray to be replenished. No problem but it should have been mentioned at check-in

Hotel was nice but quite a long journey to get there. Food was ok but there could have been more choice and it was served as if it was on a production line due to Pandemic procedures. Rooms were fine and leisure looked nice but we never used it

The course was in ok condition, tee boxes were uncut as well as greens, you can tell it has no members due to the course conditions Hotel was ok although the conservatory was cold when served coffee and bacon sarnie on arrival Breakfast was chaotic and not well communicated as we had chosen in advance but staff had no clue what was being served to who They then gave bills under the door at 6am which were some £80 incorrect and blamed a computer error…hmmm? All in all not bad but some attention to detail is required

As expected but reception areas in need of upgrading

The food was excellent, no negative feedback at all. The hotel itself is dated and lacks atmosphere. The rooms were uncomfortable due to the heat, the towel rails in the bathroom were on 24/7 when it was very hot outside making the room too hot to sleep. However the accommodation suited my purpose as a centre to go out and golf.

This is a well run hotel. Facilities such as indoor pool and sauna work cleanly to almost perfect temperatures. The dinner and breakfast are cooked and served to the highest standard. It's not overdecorated etc in country house style, but furnished straightforwardly to our satisfaction!

Coffee in the drawing room it conservatory. Everything was freshly cooked and piping hot. Can honestly say we were over joyed with the food and service

Very Quirky course greens were fine considering the weather we've had monster par 5 13th which was very and racked up a few big scores only downside no pro shop.
David
✓5 Jun 2024
Course has some very challenging holes with great views, overall condition of course was poor. Fairways not cut, rough left unattended greens not to bad, tee boxes not cut, bu kers not raked. Still had a good time, need more attention to course as could be 1st class.
Ann

Set in a most beautiful estate with a good mix of hole difficulty. The greens were somewhat woolly but overall it was an enjoyable day .
Christine

Despite there having been heavy rain for the previous week and also heavy showers on the 2 days we were playing we all enjoyed the course and its water hazards! Super views.
Stewart

Good holiday golf course. Course well kept but greens were very, very slow!! Course had some challenging holes with lovely views.
Christina

This was a golf course attached to a hotel. It was very picturesque and had some tricky holes. There obviously isn't the manpower to edge and rake bunkers and treat greens but we had the course to ourselves which was amazing. There is no pro shop or starter or clubhouse, all done through reception. There is definitely the potential to develop golf.
David
✓10 May 2022
Very disappointed again this year with the state of the greens. We appreciate the restrictions with covid etc but the fairways needed cut,a number of bunkers had weeds growing and hadn't t been maintained.
Kerry

Couldn’t have picked a worse week to go as it had rained all wee,so some of the greens and fairways were flooded,but nothing could have been done about that due to weather. We still managed 7holes on the Sunday and 11 on the Monday,so not beaten despite the weather!! Beautiful course all round and would highly recommend. Will go May next time.
Colin

Lovely wee course with some very good holes. Course was very wet but still in good condition. Just as well it was quiet as they only had four trolleys for hire possibly due to being late in season. No shop facilities for snacks or juice
Paul

Condition isn’t the best but enjoyable
Kevin

Very tight , need to play a couple of times to know where to go , makes a change not to have to hit long all the time
Adam
✓22 Sep 2021
Really challenging course. Lovely greens with really interesting holes. Not just a case of bashing the driver. You have to think your way round this golf course!
Jean

Good test of golf with tricky holes. Layout testing. No slope rating but suspect it would be tough.
Sheena Spence

Beautiful. Played once before and had forgotten how lovely it was.
Colin

Narrow fairways with unkept rough so penalised should you run off a fairway.
Bryan
✓29 Aug 2021
Have played here several times and there are two holes to me unplayable in par The greens were true but very slow. Buggies were very clean and efficient
Barbara
✓29 Aug 2021
The greens were very slow and patchy in places, the 10th even had a couple of rabbit holes! The rough was quite punishing, get in there and you lost your ball! However, overall we enjoyed ourselves, especially not losing a ball on the stroke 1 hole (well the last round anyway).
Emma
✓15 Aug 2021
Bog standard hotel course, moss growing on greens, which were very slow. Lots of other courses on offer in Scotland don’t waste your time on this one.
David
✓12 Aug 2021
Really good course with some excellent golf holes. Some easy but beware! The 3 par 5’s are extremely testing. Fun to play but requires length and accuracy
John
✓5 Oct 2020
Nice layout and trouble free rounds. However, the weather had been very wet therefore resulting in a wet course
Lynn
✓1 Oct 2020
Very pretty course. Weather was good first day then wet the second day. Course was dry for the time of year and we enjoyed our golf.
Alan
✓17 Mar 2020
Sadly, we visited after 2 weeks of torrential rain, so rating not as good as it could be The rain is nobody's fault. The holes and setting are fantastic. Cant wait to return if ever the rain disappears. Well worth the visit. We will be back.
Antony

This is a beautiful and challenging parkland course. In dry conditions it would be superb. We had to play after a lot of rain, so it was really wet underfoot pretty well throughout the course. Distances were long! To enjoy, simply check the weather..
David

Due to extreme rain it is difficult to give an opinion, 2 holes closed as so flooded, greens were soaked, therefore not a true review.
Peter

A lot of nice holes,I’ll be back next year
Vanda

We had a great two rounds. Day one was tricky as we did not know the course or lay out. But day two was a dream. The weather was beautiful and we played the course with more pleasure. The whole course was in wonderful condition
Peter
✓11 Jun 2019
Very good course for a hotel course. Greens were all very true and well cared for. Need a buggy long way between green and tee. 2 holes 13 and 15th very difficult you need to play them a few times to get the correct lines.
David
✓28 May 2019
Not overly busy, played at relaxed pace, some tricky holes ,fast greens and lush fairways. Will probably return. Could do with more pull trolleys being available.we had to take a buggy at additional expense when trollies not available.

Course was very good for the time of year, mid October.
