Duke’s Course, St Andrews & Fife - Book Golf Breaks & Holidays

Duke's Course

Kohler plans to hold major professional events at the Duke's and the improvements reflect that desire. Played from the tips, this is the longest golf course in Scotland, and it represents the perfect accompaniment to the classic tracks at St Andrews Links.

It is a parkland course, but Kohler has toughened it up, especially the bunkering which is now reminiscent of his other venture, Whistling Straits in Wisconsin, which hosted the 2004 USPGA Championship.

Enjoying magnificent views down over the 'auld grey toon', The Duke's is a remarkable place to play a round at the spiritual home of golf and is a must when on a golf tour of St Andrews.

A stunning location in a parkland style course set above St Andrews and with great views. Good practice facilities and very friendly bar/balcony with good setting for post play relaxation. Would have appreciated the hut being open for refreshment at halfway at lunchtime. Good golfing experience, though course is 'protected' by a dramatic amount of bunkers (I seemed to be in most of them) and these were not of good quality, with different sand quality and many stones (I chipped a club). So a good course overall, but can be improved and not as good as the links courses just 3 miles away.

Unfortunately I spent most of the round on edge in case we were struck by golf balls as visibility was less than 100 yards Kevin

We used electric trolleys but soon realised there is a fair bit of walking to be done between holes, especially going from the 9th to the 10th tee. Keeps you fit!

Although the weather was nasty, we enjoyed our round because we had buggies and had no trouble playing the course.

The Dukes is a quality championship course , not the easiest golf course but a true test of golf . The course was in excellent condition , with the greens not quite at their best due to the time of year ( end of March ) A delight to play .

I have previously played the dukes and it was interesting to see the changes they have made to the course. The course has fantastic views over St Andrews

Lovely course just felt like it could be laid out a bit better. No signs for the next few box and a few tee boxes were near to others, causing confusion. Each hole played very well with the 17th being my favourite

Owned by The Old Course Hotel, The Dukes Course is only about 7 minutes from the Ardgowan Hotel which was our base for our society golf tour in St Andrews. When you enter the gates you’re properly wowed going up the drive to the course. The scenery is beautiful at the Dukes, with the gorse in full bloom and everything about the place being very grand. The course is a great tree lined layout, which can get pretty testing as it’s quite tight at times and there are some long holes with a lot of gorse. All of the guys in our group loved the course even though some found it tough.<div><br></div><div>Service in the super slick clubhouse is phenomenal too. Members of staff go above and beyond and the changing room is one of the coolest I’ve been in! Beers on the balcony overlooking the course after the round are a must!</div>
