About
Burntisland Golf House Club in Fife, Scotland, is an 18-hole golf course designed by architect Willie Park Jun. It's best described as having a parkland nature, although some holes have a links-type turf to hit off. The course is just under 6,000 yards and has a diversity of terrain.
The fun starts with three par 3s in the first six holes, but birdie opportunities abound. There's only one par 4 over 400 yards, for instance, so good length off the tee and control of mid-irons can lead to that elusive below-par score. The two par 5s are also tamable: No. 2 has a tricky two-tier green that's narrow from front to back, but 12 is much less challenging for the low-handicap golfer.
Throughout the golf course, however, control is key. Out of bounds lies to the left of the first four holes and the 18th, and to the right of nine and 10. You face a pond to the right on five, and you have to maneuver past a quarry on 12. Beyond that, the course throws up its share of trees, gorse and rough all over.
When you finish the course, check out the clubhouse, which offers a bar/lounge/dining area. The bar's open from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. in the summer.

nice wee track
We decided to get to the east coast as the weather was terrible post "storm Doris" - we were lucky to get a dry 17 holes, rained going down 18th. Given the heavy rain all week it was a bit wet and muddy underfoot and we played from matts - all to be expected for the time of year. I was surprised to get 17/18 full greens of which all were fantastic (again for time of year). lots of quirky little holes and although its a decent walk up and down hills it was not long or too difficult. I am keen to get back during the season to see it in its full glory and would recommend for a society day looking for an interesting course which is a fair test to golfers of all abilities.
Great views
Greens had been spiked leaving them very bumpy...also was quite wet underfoot and could do with better signage for next hole etc.
Great views and quite hilly...also a shared Green ⛳
Can't comment on clubhouse as this wasn't open,round was played at 11.30
Stuck between senior open and the youth open
Pace was really poor however the condition of the course was amazing! I will definitely go back.
Great day
Would be a definite advantage to have played the course more than once. Sloping greens and strategically placed pot bunkers are always a danger for the less than accurate golfer. Score cards show all of the hazards clearly. Friendly welcome and good value food and drink in the clubhouse were a real bonus.
Scenic course with views over the Forth
Excellent course with interesting and varied holes. Great off the average golfer. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
