Edinburgh municipal gem.
You get great views of Edinburgh from a lot of the holes. According to the scorecard it's not a long course but if there is any wind it feels a lot longer. Some very entertaining holes that make you think and give you options to play them in different ways.Reviewer Rating

Very scenic, tight course
Really enjoyed this round in the sunshine, a bit breezy, but under four hours on a Saturday morning so not too bad. A pretty course, greens very good but fairways were parched. A little confusing sometimes where you are heading and lots of blind shots. Worth the weekend fee of £26 I thought.(Round played: Jul 2018 - Score: 88 Handicap: 15.1)

Tough test on a quality hilly course.
A real test of golf and stamina with stunning views of Edinburgh city. Significant changes of elevation mean several greens are hidden on approach. Expect to lose golf balls!Reviewer Rating
