The following is a few of the testimonials that have been received from visitors to Cochrane Castle Golf Club over the last couple of years:

• We played the course today as a 3 ball and really enjoyed the course in good condition for this time of year. We had a good welcome from the pro and the weather was fantastic for this time of year. We will look to try to return in the summer, playing schedules permitting....Alex Hunter (March 2025)

• ....what a beautiful, challenging and well kept course; we would consider returning....Andy M (September 2024)

• The Ladies Section of Cathcart Castle Golf Club chose Cochrane Castle Golf Club for their annual outing this year, and we were so glad we did. Right from the first call I had with the Club Secretary Joseph I knew we were in good hands.  He offered us excellent rates, and suggested where we could have on course prizes (nearest pin, longest drive etc).  The food choices on offer were very tempting and not just usual golf club fare.  The Club then prepared a programme detailing the order of the day, using our Club logo and a message of welcome. 

  So when 46 ladies descended on Cochrane Castle on the hottest day of the year, we were given the warmest welcome by Joseph and Allyson.  After our coffee and hot rolls, the Pro had organised excellent deals on goodie bags before heading out.

  The course itself was in fantastic condition and proved challenging in the heat.  Our only suggestion would be that more signage is put on the course as it is not always obvious where to find the next tee. The layout of the course also lends itself to a shortened 12 holes, which suited some of our older members. 

  Back in the Clubhouse everyone agreed that the food was absolutely fantastic.  Many thanks to Joseph and his team, I would highly recommend to anyone considering CCGC for an outing .. give it a go, you won’t regret it. Catriona Mcharg (Lady Captain 2024 - Cathcart Castle Golf Club, August 2024)

• On behalf of RLCGA and all playing counties today please accept our thanks for the courtesy of the course today and for the practice rounds, the assistance offered by the club which assisted greatly in the smooth running of the event. The course was praised by both players and spectators to be in great condition and very much enjoyed. Clair Barclay (RLCGA Junior Secretary, June 2024)

• Many grateful thanks to you; Cochrane Castle Golf Club and your Membership for hosting RLCGA's recent Competition. We had a most wonderful day and I must emphasise how magnificent your Course both looked and played.  You'll recall April was a most dire month for the amount of rainfall, however, this truly was not apparent at Cochrane Castle and your staff should be commended. Carol McNally (Hon Secretary RLCGA, May 2024)

• Just a message to say thanks for all your help planning our outing, a fantastic day was had by all. Joe Blyth (Greenock Winhill GC, May 2024).

• The ladies thoroughly enjoyed the course and remarked how good the course was considering the weather we have had (as a past member I was always telling people it was a wee gem). Thanks again for the hospitality and continued support. Liz Stewart (Captain RLCGA, March 2024)

• I had a lot of positive feedback on the day, a lot of the ladies had not played the course before and thoroughly enjoyed it, saying it was in great condition with many wanting to play again next year.  Donna Jackson (Ladies Tri-am, August 2023)

• A note of thanks to all for allowing the RGU to play this West of Scotland boys fixture on the 25th. Despite the rain, the boys really enjoyed the course (4 each result) with both sets of players and the Dumbartonshire officials stating " this is the best course we have played this year".  Ian S (June 2023)

• The guys were all thoroughly delighted with the course even although there were winter greens.  Please pass on thanks to catering as it was faultless, and we were well looked after.  All the guys have said they would love to play the course with all big greens on so I may be in touch to book another visit soon. David McDowall (October 2022)

• I played the course on Friday with a member and absolutely loved it. I am looking for a new club after leaving my last one this month. Oliver Perkins (April 2022)

• It’s a gem of a course tucked away at the back of a scheme. You wouldn’t know it was there but it’s well worth searching out. The condition of the course even in the winter months when I played it was excellent. The greens were fantastic and true. A real credit to the green staff. Well worth a visit. Steven B (January 2022)
