James Braid designed Blairmore and Strone Golf Club in 1896. The course is set on the hillside above Strone and in consequence is hilly and undulating with large areas of deep rough bordering most fairways.

The third hole in particular can catch out the unwary; the approach is steep with an equally steep left to right slope. The fifth hole, whilst shorter, has a similar right to left slope - be warned.

From the tees of the 6th, 7th, and 8th holes wonderful views of Clyde Estuary can be enjoyed by players.
