Played the PGA Centenary course (next Ryder cup venue) and it was magnificent, the whole resort is absolutely stunning. If you ever get a chance to visit, i'd strongly recommend you do!

I'm playing it at the end of May with one of the resident pro's. any further info would be great!
 
I played this in February, managed the play the 1st 5 holes on the Centenary Course, then played the rest of the Kings Course as they were doing work on the Centenary course. Some great views though and very well kept. A bit disappointing that the 18th on the Kings course was a temp green- bit of an anti climax!
 
The geography is fantastic.
Kings has 6 great holes, 6 decent holes and 6 poor/blind/quirky holes. 17th is on of my best 18 hole list.
Queens is slightly better designed than the Kings except shorter.
PGA is not a great course, I think the designer should have done better given what he was working with.
Quite a log jam on holes 3 to 8. Generally a bit of a slog

All in all it is a great experience and I an sure you will have a great time.
Bet you enjoy The Queens the most.

I am only booked to play the PGA but hope the sneak another round. The plan is for 3days, a lesson on the middle day and a round in the afternoon with the teaching pro. Might try and take in Edinburgh on the last afternoon
 
Queens is probably my most enjoyable to play course out the 3, great layout and some tricky holes even if a few are short-ish.

I was up a few weeks ago, V disappointed to find the Academy (range) closed till end of may.
