Less than 15 miles / 30 minutes east of Edinburgh International Airport sits one of Scotland’s most economic regions to play golf. In fact, there are over 20 courses to choose from; some hidden gems that you might not be familiar with to the Open Championship venue of Muirfield.
Scotland’s Golf Coast as it is now known, is very scenic with its quaint villages and towns dotted between the stunning coastline and the rolling green countryside. The town of North Berwick is home to the West Course and is also the epicenter of the region. It provides the golfer with plenty of choices for post golf indulgence with its strong pub and restaurant scene that are in abundance throughout the town.
If you are looking for a bit of country living, then there are some great accommodation options such as Greywalls or Archerfield. If you are looking for a great meal and all around dining experience, then you must head to Duck’s Inn in the village of Aberlady. You can even stay there but whatever you do, make sure you challenge the proprietor Malcolm Duck to his Bar Stool Challenge, definitely one of a kind and has to be one of golf’s best 19th hole games!
All in all, Scotland’s Golf Coast is for the golf purist seeking to play some great links golf; courses that just don’t get their deserved due because of the bigger names courses in Scotland. One thing is for sure – you will love the golf, you will love the value – and we feel confident that you’ll agree with us – that it’s the people that make this region one of our favorites in Scotland!

Before You Travel
- A quality rain suit, pants and jacket is a MUST! Zero Restriction and FootJoy are quality brands. If you do not own such apparel, it is expensive and note, you get what you pay for. So purchase wisely as you’ll be thankful you have it if you get a good lashing!
- Rain gloves – a must when playing in the rain. They come in pairs and for good reason. A wet hand on a wet grip will only result in tears as your ball, and maybe your club too, will undoubtedly end up in the fescue.
- A good ski hat – yes, not what you typically think of for golf but because most courses are on the ocean, the water temps are still only in the upper 50’s to 60 degrees. Combine these factors with some wind blowing onshore and then throw in some rain and it is a recipe for being miserable. A nice warm hat that can cover your ears could be your best friend.
- A proper golf umbrella – a must as normal summer weather means intermittent showers that come and go throughout a 4 hour round. You can generally see what is coming so instead of changing in and out of rain gear, you can use a good sturdy wind-resistant umbrella to shelter you until the shower passes.
Now, what about sunshine? Yes, they do have it in Ireland and when it comes out especially in the late spring and summer months, it can be quite warm to hot. Therefore, a few pair of golf shorts are in order. Golfers have been known to wear shorts under their rain pants simply because the extremes from shower to sunshine can be very dramatic – so this is sometimes the best approach.
All in all, these are the best tips to best prepare you for what we hope is a memorable experience golfing in Scotland.
