A fun bunch of ladies from Saline Golf Club came along to Falkland Golf Club to sample the great hospitality we have to offer at our wee club.
A warm welcome is always guaranteed, however we cannot promise that you will have 3 Captains of the club serving your food and drinks as we did today for these ladies!
