Course:    Alloa, Schawpark

Location:   Alloa

Brief description:  A James Braid course in the shadow of the Ochils. Lots of parking and a welcoming, well stocked Pro Shop, where you should check in.

What to expect of the course: A cracking 18 hole course winds its way through mature trees and bracken. The course demands use of every club in the bag and is an absolute joy to play. At times you'll feel like the only people on the course such is the tranquility this course can offer.

What to expect of the overall visit: It's one of Scotland's hidden gems and should be on everyone's play list. Not expensive to play and easy to get to in Central Scotland. The clubhouse offers good fayre and welcomes visiting golfers.
