Prestonfield Golf Club
6 Priestfield Road North, Edinburgh, Lothian, EH16 5HS United Kingdom
Prestonfield Golf Club is set in beautiful parkland and is centrally located in Edinburgh. James Braid, one of the most famous names in golf, created the present layout. The course is a testing par 70 of 6207 yards whose two par 5s are very long but its par 3's quite short by today's standards. The character lies in the amount of long testing par 4's that can vary greatly depending on wind direction and strength.Book a Tee Time

very scenic course with the dramatic backdrop of Arthur's Seat, the course had suffered from the poor weather and as a result had some standing water on the fairways, however that aside this is a really good course, the greens a really well bunkered and if you are shooting well you can score well and be very satisfied with your game, if you are not playing well you can be penalized but you can recover. we will be back to play this course again.

The greens were really good, the course was in superb condition for a parkland course and the clubhouse was exceptional. Not a lot else more to say about it to be honest.

Interesting and scenic course that is largely flat and forgiving for mid-high handicappers. Misses the challenges of water hazards and perhaps more extreme and unique feature holes, but enjoyable course. Can suffer during wet conditions as ground can get heavy.

A really nice course. Became congested at 2nd tee (two groups waiting) but after that a steady pleasant round with wonderful views of Arthurs Seat.

Played this course in a group of 16 on a tournament. Excellent course in superb condition. Lots of nice par 3s, and some real good long par 4s and 5s. Gale force winds made it interesting!! Great views, great club house, and very helpful pro shop.

Lovely course, short par 3s are great, long par 4s very challenging.

A nice course, half undulating surface on fairway makes ticky. Largely flat parkland.

Good parkland course in a great location in the heart of Edinburgh. Stunning views of Arthurs Seat and excellent clubhouse make this course well worth visiting.
