Front 9
Caldwell Golf Club stands out for its combination of history, traditional parkland golf and accessibility. The course has a clear Scottish identity, but its location close to Glasgow makes it a convenient option for golfers looking to experience a historic inland course without travelling deep into the countryside.
The layout offers plenty of variety, from shorter par 3s to demanding long par 4s and par 5s. The tree-lined fairways and undulating terrain mean that positioning from the tee can be important, while the longer holes provide opportunities for golfers who can strike the ball well. One of Caldwell's biggest attractions is its history.
Final verdict
Broadlees Golf stands out as a relaxed and accessible option for golfers looking to play 9 holes in South Lanarkshire. Its combination of a genuine golf-course layout, practice facilities and additional activities gives the venue a broader appeal than a traditional golf course.
The par-36 layout provides a good mixture of holes, while the relatively compact format makes Broadlees particularly appealing if you do not have time for a full 18-hole round. One of the biggest advantages is the range of facilities available on site. The driving range provides a place to warm up or work on your game, while the separate Par 3 course offers an opportunity to practise short-game skills.
From the scorecard, the round clearly shows it it suited for mid handicappers.
That's probably the most useful thing about a round like this. You don't need to be playing off single figures to get something from the course.
