Ladies and Gents,

I have ran this past Mike to ensure that I wasn't going to rain on his parade or stand on anyones toes who have commited to the Hillside trip.

With travel, overnight costs and a wife that said no to me going to Hillside I have decided to try and organise a "grand" outing for us stuck at home while the lucky sods take advantage of GM's wonderful Hillside outing.

As such I have made enquiries with the following golf courses and asked them to provide their most competitive deal that they feel that they can.

Crail
Cruden Bay
Gleneagles
Glasgow Gailes
Kingsbarns
Ladybank
Monifieth

I will wait and see who comes back with what deals and keep you all updated. At present Monifieth on paper seems ideal. For £79 they are offering breakfast, coffee and bacon roll, 9 holes, lunch, 18 holes then a meal at night. I would love to think (hope) that Gleneagles would do us a deal however I reall can't see that happening!!!!

If you are interested can you please add your name to the thread, all welcome.

Yup, I'm up for this, but may need to give the 'meal' part a miss, as the wife works Monday evenings and I'd need to be home for baby-sitting duties...........
 
Sounds good Craw. I will be having a weeks holiday in September, just waiting for "She who shall be obeyed" to confirm when. So I'll say I'm interested unless it falls in with my holiday.

Yup. Up for this mate.
Good to see I'm not the only one who doesn't wear the trousers. :o

Is it also worth having a look at Lanark? Similar package to Monifieth for £64.;)
 
I could be up for this, was considering Hillside but this is a much better plan as i can plan my week home in Fife around this.

Better deals plus Steve and I said Euan will be stuck up on a roof.

Lanark if wet will be a soggy slog, links is better. Lets just see what deals are on offer but I am never going to please everyone.

Good stuff mate,i'm in ,was the Monfieth deal not a round on the Medal and a round on the Ashludie course?,some cracking courses there mate.
 
Crawford,

I'm on leave but nothing planned at the moment. So all being well Ian and I will be there. As Steve says some cracking courses on that list.
 
Good Call on Cruden Bay, fantastic course, but if you are thinking of that far north, dont rule out these links. Murcar, Royal aberdeen, (bit snooty but ok) and Newburgh on ythan a hidden gem , you can score really well there as more open, to help the high handicapper :), also if you want a fun course with stunning views stonehaven fits that bill and would be very reasonable (not long at just over 5000 yards but still can be a test), just watch the wind isnt blowing or your liable to go into the north sea and i mean you not your ball, take a look on google maps and you will see what i mean

count me in.
 
UPDATE

At present only Crail have got back to me and they are keen to discuss what they can do.

Incidentally, what's the preference, 18 or 36? Again everyone will not get what they want but an indication would be nice. I would probably prefer 18 and a meal but also more than happy with 36 holes.
