How many great courses, in your opinion, aren't great/exceptionally attractive to look at? Ie name a few examples?

I have long held that often times the biggest difference between great and good is a sense of grandeur (however that may exist). The actual difference in the quality of the holes can be quite scant. Hence the reason there are so many wonderful 2nd and 3rd tier in GB&I.
You have created a false dichotomy. Now you are talking about great courses with views. Why not talk about mediocre courses with great views? Oh, yes, Nefyn
Great courses without anything close to exceptional views (interior and/or exterior)
Merion
TOC - posterchild for not having to pay for the view
Prestwick
Formby
Muirfield
Woking
Sacred 9
Deal
St Georges Hill
Ganton
Royal Aberdeen
I would pay full whack for at least half of these. I must be mad if the views aren't exceptional
In truth, there are very few courses which the views really stand out for me and I think for the most part, it is those courses with cool interior views (quite rare).
Sunny Old
Renaissance Club
Walton Heath
Old Town
Notts
There are likely a few others.
