Promising Course
Clubs rarely have the full package, yet Kings Acre looks to be heading in the right direction. A top driving range and putting green are just the start and the clubhouse has a warm feel inside. The course gives a range of challenges but principally due to thick forest from which the layout has been built straight shots are essential.....these are thick woods and a stray shot will likely mean a lost ball. That said there are fun elements with the 15th Tee launching high through the top reaches of Redwoods and a 17th bending right around a small hill. Worth a visit.Reviewer Rating

Lovely drive up to the clubhouse, greeted by friendly staff and a warm atmosphere.
Course plays fantastic even with a good bit of rain we have had the last few weeks.
Easy to manage you're way around hole by hole with direction signs where needed.
Will definitely be coming back to this one.

An undemanding course on the outskirts of Edinburgh, easily reached from the bypass, Kings Acre isn't as tough as it might be with wide fairways allowing you to keep the ball in play and shoot for the greens. It's of a length where you'd expect to reach most greens in regulation The par 5s are definite birdie opportunities. The layout of two nines is varied enough to keep you interested although the "down and round holes" 14 to 17 are a bit quirky. 18 is the best driving challenge, with a 200 yard carry to pass the pond on the left and bunkering down the right for the hydrophobics. Decent clubhouse and food and a nice spot to take lunch on a sunny day.

Really enjoys a course in superb condition, tees, fairways and greens. Not a long course but gives you plenty to thin about, very warm welcome in the pro shop, only downside is ?39 for a weekend round, maybe worth 25-30 at best.

Recently had a day out here with 28 roudy glaswegians and was a blast. Very easy to organise as every time a phoned no matter who I spoke too was always very helpful. And not a bad price either. We arrived 1hr30 before first tee and were received very well. Course was in absolutely pristine condition and found it extremely entertaining to play as found it was a wee thinker. It did help having the buggy a must say the boys who never were knackerd by the time they got round. What let this club down was the state of the shower facility's and our 2 course meal after the round. The showers are a absolute joke having to time whn to jump in a out. You are ither getting scalded or freezing ur golf balls off. As for the meal well for me it was a shambles. Paid extra to upgrade to a 2 course and after wish a had stuck with soap n sandwich. Had a choice of fish,mac n cheese and pie,chips n beans and every 1 was terrible not sure wht went wrong if they cooked it whn we were on the course n jus heated when we got back but it was disgusting. Total shame aswell because everything else up to tht point had been fantastic. Will definitely be goin bk jus maybe not with as many people????????

This is a lovely setting just south of Edinburgh. It is a modern course with fairly wide fairways - but there is only a short short rough and then wilderness where your chances of finding your ball are as remote as a hole in one. Minor criticism is the state of the greens where the surface is often a little substandard. The greens are also challenging because of multiple slopes on many. Lovely views in places.
Modern stylish clubhouse and situated just off the bypass.

(Round played: Jun 2016 - Score: 93 Handicap: 16.6) A very enjoyable course until you get to the 14th and onward. The par 3 followed by a very difficult par 5 require a level of accuracy that a high handicapper will find very hard. My round was doing OK until then and for the last three holes I was deflated. Course would be improved with some deep raking of the bunkers most of which were baked hard.
