Dunblane New Golf Club

About
Cecil Hutchison and James Braid designed Dunblane New Golf Club. It features excellently manicured greens and splendid vistas in every direction. Measuring nearly 6,000 yards from the back tees, Dunblane is a par 69 golf course. The fifth hole, Panorama, is a delight, with wonderful views of the mountains to the northwest.
The facility also includes a modern, friendly clubhouse.

Slowest round in the world
First the good bits, the young lad in the pro shop was great and was very informative, also the pro shop was quite well stocked. I had a cup of tea before teeing off and the facilities were really clean and well presented. The serving staff were really nice and were happy to chat , which was very welcoming. The course has some nice holes and is well presented in most areas if a little hilly in parts. The fairways are some of the best I have played on, and the ground staff were very courteous when required to stop or move. The tee boxes for the most part were of a reasonable standard, however I thought the greens were pretty poor, although fast, they were very bobbly, which made holing putts near impossible. It might be I’ve came at the wrong time of the year though and that they are better in the height of summer. To be honest I would have overlooked all the poor points of the course, but you can’t get away from the slow play. This is the slowest I have ever played, I was on my own which made it seem worse. I understand this is not the club’s fault but no one even offered to let me through. Tee off at 11:20 and finished at 15:30 absolutely ridiculous. It truly spoiled what could have been a great day as the weather was brilliant. Unfortunately , its a shame, but I wouldn’t recommend Dunblane on the basis of the time it takes to get round, this course is under 6000 yards.
Dunblane is a good choice
Good course and club, signage on course for visitors can be improved, thanks for letting me play from white tee
Stunning course
Really enjoyed my last visit to this course, couldn't wait to return.
Dunblane
Had the pleasure of playing Dunblane, from my arrival I was very impressed. The staff in the pro shop, bar & the members on the course were very friendly, polite & helpful.
The course condition was fantastic & I compliments to the greenkeepers.
Overall my experience of Dunblane was, it is right up there of my favourite courses I have played & will hopefully be back there very soon.
Perfect
First time me and a friend played this course and couldn't believe how great it was. Booked up on the Sunday thinking it would be busy but we had one group behind us and that was it perfect for me being a beginner so could take my time. Course was perfect all over and the greens are great compared to my local. Will definitely be back.
The driest course I've played in months!
After all the rain we've had recently, I was very pleasantly surprised that the fairways were only on preferred lies, rather than mats. They were very playable too, though the greens were a bit bumpy, particularly later in the round. On the whole though, a very enjoyable round in sunshine for a rare change.
All the staff we dealt with were friendly and helpful, and the catering was good, with generous portions too.
Thoroughly enjoyed the day - many thanks.
Bit of a disappointment
My friends and I played the course yesterday. We paid £30 each for the experience which at a different time of year would have been good value but we felt ripped off given the winter conditions. Only 16 holes were in play and of those 16 only 5 were on summer greens. All of this is fair enough but what isn’t good is the fact we weren’t told this beforehand. If we had been we would have played elsewhere. Compared to some of the value for money elsewhere this was disappointing. For half the price we could have had our choice of 18 hole courses on summer greens. For this reason we all left disappointed.
Course conditions don't reflect green fee
The course is in poor condition even for this time of year. Maybe would recommend at half the green fee but the standard rate is too high. Better condition courses at half the price within 20 minute drive

Hidden gem
Fantastic course with amazing vistas. The course is in amazing condition, the staff in the pro shop were supper helpful and friendly.
The course itself offers a variety of different challenges for golfers of all levels.
All in all a great day, would highly recommend.
Great Course
Had a very enjoyable round of golf. Well worth it and great value for money.
Play it
I booked Dunblane after looking for something near Stirling. Course was in good shape for May, green and lush. Greens are pretty decent, enough slope to make it interesting and some tiered greens too. Some risk reward short par 3’s with serious drop offs around the greens making pinseeking a risk. No real serious blind holes so a first timer finding your way around is easy.
Worth playing more than once for club selection on a couple of dog legs and layup holes. Good layout with some great views.
Beautiful
It’s a beautiful course with beautiful views.
It’s got everything you need in a course to challenge your game…holes with raised greens, plenty of bunkers to make you think about your approach shots, tough par threes and long par five to finish the course. Course is in excellent condition.
