Kingsbarns is one of my favorite courses in Fife. Not only was the course challenging and fun to play, someone in my foursome got a hole-in-one on hole number two (it wasn't me.)
Above: The 18th - The fairway comes into the green from the left in the photo (photo taken from the clubhouse.) This is a challenging two-shotter, especially into the wind. I watched quite a few shots miss short in the burn or roll over into the bunker beyond.
The par 3 - 15th hole. Aim at the right edge of the back bunker and the ball will trickle to the right to a flagstick on the point (that's the safe route.) Go for the flagstick and you may end up on the rocks...it's windy beyond the treeline.
Transitions between holes were a work of art.
Parsinen and Phillips used challenge, charm, mystery and discovery to create some very memorable holes.
Another artistically thoughtful transition between holes - this one is between the 14th green and the 15th tee.
