Played yesterday 8th and absolutely fantastic course. Ian the professional was very helpful and polite as was all the staff. Course was very wet underfoot but still played well.
Bunkers due to inclement weather where out of action but that’s Scotland for you.
Course itself is good and there’s a mixture of straight forward holes and challenging holes for all types of golfers.
At 56 in just getting back in after a 35 year absence from golf and this course for me was ok
Handicap 17 went round in 91 net 74. This will come down and date day a return to Deer Park will help.

Fantastic day!

We (three ball) had booked through the Bunkered voucher scheme and opted for the morning coffee and roll and sausage before the golf with the two course lunch following the golf. The staff were very welcoming and friendly and very helpful. The course was in great condition. We were playing from the slightly forward tee placements because it was technically still winter but still very long. In the summer this course will be a monster, not for the cardiac-challenged golfer!
The food was outstanding and the portions were generous, however the biggest takeaway from the day was the staff, just brilliant all round, would not hesitate to thoroughly recommend this course to every level of golfer, you won’t regret it.

Fantastic parkland close to Edinburgh

I had not played Deer Park in a few years and my positive memories were certainly reinforced. The first positive was the pro shop shuffling the tee times to accomodate our late arrival into Edinburgh Airport. Once we got underway, the course was a real star. It's a fabulous layout with every hole being different. The front nine is particular is great but the back nine is no slouch either. Every hole sticks in your mind. The conditioning was great and even though the greens were not quick it was just because they had not been cut in a few days. At £40 a rounf on a Saturday afternoon you will be hard pushed to find better value golf in the area, maybe even the whole of Scotland.

Scorchio day at Deer Park

Played this course in a competition from the white tees with temperatures in the mid twenties. The course was in excellent condition. For once a course where the greens on the course are similar to the practice greens. This course is very much open to outings and so can be quite busy and slow which can be a bit of a nuisance but not enough to deter from visiting again.
Supported by great staff in the clubhouse , food is reasonable and beers are plenty.
