Played here for years... Even more so during "Covid Times". The course is in pretty poor condition at present but getting better. Not ammused by the Tees... The Tee markers are alway squint and on slopes/hilly lies... Whoever places these obviously doesn't play golf. The prices are expensive for membership now. £56 for a 7 day membership. Could probably join a private club for that. The course is not good enough for the prices paid... Well below the standard of a decent private course. It's local for me and the only reason I play it regularly.Reviewer Rating

Generous municipal cours
Edinburgh council course to West of town. Decent condition although a bit water logged the day we played (it had rained heavily). generous fairways and rough, a few trees and little in the way of water hazards. We were round in 3 hours so great for a gentle game.(Round played: Sep 2017 - Score: 87 Handicap: 26.3)

course was quite busy today two old fellas with a buggy held me up on 1st 3 holes.Thankfully they turned off back down the 18th. Things picked up a bit for the next two holes then when i arrived on the tee beside two other young men ,instead of letting me through as they should,they blamed the three in front of them for slow play and waited another 3 holes before letting me through .This is my only complaint,and it happens all the time at this course adding time to a round needlessley.

Carrick Knowe Golf course is very pleasant to play on. Few difficult holes with bunkers and trees in the way, which always make the game more than interesting. Players around are often pleasant too and always walk past few dog walkers as we play.
