One golfer took to Tripadvisor to share their experience:"We have visited Ayrshire to play Golf previously, but this time Western Gailes was included on our itinerary. It was by far the best decision we had ever made. This is a magnificent course, in pristine condition. The welcome we received from the moment we entered the clubhouse to the second we left was second to none. The staff in the bar couldn’t have done any more. The man at registration gave us everything we needed to know and do.The course however was an even greater star and reason to visit."
