The Kames Country Club has an attractive location in this part of Central Scotland and gives convenient access to the Scottish cities of Glasgow (28 miles) and Edinburgh (30 miles). The M74 is also about 12 miles distant giving direct access to Northern England, Glasgow and the West of Scotland.

The Golf Courses
The Mouse Valley Championship Course, which opened in 1993, is an18 Hole Parkland Course over 6,650 yards off the medal tees. It is one of the longest courses in Lanarkshire. Each hole is unique and one will not find two holes the same. It encompasses an area of approximately 137 acres with undulating rolling parkland topography. The higher elevations lie towards the South falling away towards the lower ground in the North and in particular adjacent to the River Mouse which dissects the course from East to West. To the North is the A70 trunk road and to the South and East is open countryside with the village of Carstairs lying fairly close to the South East.
The Kames Course is a shorter18 Hole Parkland Course over 3,500 yards and was added in1999. It is an interesting yet demanding course with small contoured greens. It encompasses an area of approximately 63 acres and is in an area of generally open countryside with attractive views from many parts of the course.
Both courses have enviable access within, by means of internal tracks or Buggy tracks all around the courses. It is possible to drive to most corners and to cross the principal bridges over the River Mouse
They leave a memorable impression of being located in a large well planted fairway and peripheral area of mixed deciduous and coniferous trees. area of attractive rolling countryside very well suited to the purposes of playing golf.
