Course History
Ballumbie Castle Golf Club was opened in June 2000. The course has matured well in the years since.
There have been a couple of changes to the original layout, a few of the greens having been moved, new bunkers added and the trees that were planted in the early days have now matured nicely to give a better definition to the course.
Although only a par 69 and 6012 yards long don't be fooled into thinking this course is easy. 12 of the holes have out of bounds, large bunkers can be a problem for wayward shots, and most of the holes on the course are dog legs so position from the tee instead of distance should be a priority.
The greens on the course can be quick and have a lot of subtle breaks.
It's a tough starting 5 holes here. If you get through these 5 then you could be heading for a good round. The next tough stretch is 10-13 (Ballumbie's Amen Corner). Get through this section with a good score then you have every chance of playing to your handicap or better.
If you want to loosen your swing before your round then there is the driving range that you can use. Tokens can be purchased in the proshop adjacent.
