Number 68. Played Autumn 2011. Traditional links by James Braid.


F&R was played as part of our highland tour and it did well to compete favourably with Tain & Brora. Certainly the opening 7 holes are very strong with some excellent holes with challenging lies, copious gorse & tricky greens. From the 8th onwards the holes felt a touch alike until we hit 16, 17 & 18 where the magic reappeared. A nice course to play if you are in the area but it is up against some excellent alternatives. If it wasn’t for the similarity of holes midway through the round this would be a top course.
