Come to think about it, I played Strathtay last year. It was a wooden hut with a charity slot, £5 or £10 a go, I can't remember which. Went round once and only reason I didn't go round again was I ran out of time. The holes vary from quite open to fairly tight with some interesting holes, especially the par 3's which were really quite good. The par 4 at the top where you play up a steep hill and then the green is located at the bottom of a gully just over the other side with OB behind, was just mental. Not far off the A9 for those doing the Dornoch trip.
There's another one a bit further along the Strathtay road, can't recall the name but it looked a good bit flatter but still worth a play.
Another nine holer I dropped off to play was Invertilt GC at Blair Atholl, a bit further up the A9. Some interesting greens with some nice golf. Not at all mickey mouse with some good par 4's that require a decent hit for your second. Worth a play if you're bursting for a game on the way up. £20 for 18 holes if I remember rightly.
