The first shot I ever struck in Scotland came at this course. We had just flown over from the United States, landed in Edinburgh, and drove straight up to Carnoustie. When we arrived at the course, a pipes and drums group was playing outside of the hotel. What a welcome to Scotland!! We walked down to the Burnside Course, checked in, and the starter even let us tee off a bit earlier than our appointed time. It was a glorious day, sunny and breezy. The course was in great shape. They were playing the Open on the Championship Course in about 3 weeks, so I suspect that the general care and feeding of the Championship Course probably carried over to the Burnside Course, seeing that the holes basically run over the same piece of land.
A good time was had by all. If you are ever in the area and want to play a perfectly lovely course at a very reasonable price, do not hesitate to tee it up on the Burnside Course.
