Dumbarnie Links

[size=78%]I have just heard about a project called Dumbarnie Links in Fife.[/size]


Whilst I must say I am a sporadic visitor to Golfclubatlas nowadays, I haven't seen anything about this golf course on the discussion board nor did anything show up via the search function.


Would be great to be directed to the thread if it already exists.  If not, would be great to learn a little more about this!!

There was a thread about the Dumbarnie course here a couple of weeks ago:

Just drove past what I presume will be the new access road yesterday on way back from Lundin...


Tell me (if anyone knows), how many holes will be on pure linksland and how many will be on farmland? And does the farmland have a decent sandy sub-soil underneath (ala Kingsbarns)?

Ally -- not sure. The planning docs are at https://planning.fife.gov.uk/online/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=documents&keyVal=P0UUASHF09N00. I dare say you could figure it out from those if you wanted to  :)
