Not what it used to be, unfortunately. Looks like a council course now. Whoever is in charge needs to take a look at themselves. Shameful...Reviewer Rating

A testing course
A lovely and testing course, very pretty, lots of trees and long rough to avoid. Some up and downs and blind shots make for a thought provoking game. Lovely old clubhouse, very welcoming, nice food. Pity the very wet conditions didn't do the course its full justice.(Round played: Sep 2019 - Score: 100 Handicap: 16.4)

Cold morning, winter rules but the course was in great condition. Some greens frosty and treated, but the course overall was really good and enjoyable to play.
Great facilities in and around the club. Worth a visit.

Hidden gem.
Cracking moorland course just off the A702 south of Edinburgh. I've played it a few times now and it never disappoints. I took 8 others up there as a stop on our way to play around Edinburgh and everyone loved it. They have also closed the course behind me when heavy snow was forecast and it was still in great nick. A good mix of long and shorter holes that you have to think about. And we have always had a very friendly welcome whether that be from staff or members.Reviewer Rating

a lovely day out
West Linton Golf Club is well worth a visit. We played 18 holes in early May and given the weather we have had this winter, the greens were in super condition as was the whole of the course. The setting is beautiful with lots of birdsong and outstanding views of the countryside. After the golf, the clubhouse is of the highest order, and the meal we enjoyed was made all the more excellent by the considerate manner with which we were served by the catering team. I would have no hesitation in recommending this club for any size of party or larger outing.Reviewer Rating

Perfect Condition Golf Course
8 of us traveled from Powfoot in DUMFRIES & Galloway for the TEXAS scramble comp on Saturday 24th of June with a great format on the par 3s .After just an hour travel we arrived at what has to be described as a hidden gem very friendly welcome superb food a proper club house very spacious and like new .
The golf course from the practice facilities apart from hitting your own balls on the range area are everything you need putting green and all greens superb and true and quite fast .
All bunkers raked perfectly with fairways mown perfect no divots and semi rough no problems finding your ball .
Course has got to be 9/10 and a superb challenge with some long holes into the wind and great par 3s .
A must stop if you are passing and we will be back to try again
THANKYOU ????????????

Reviewed Jul 12 2015
Round played 11th July 15 and the course was immaculate. Well kept fairways and the greens were in fantastic condition and lightning fast. Some long part fours to negotiate and a double part three to finish . The 17th played 191 and the 18th 222 yards so a good Tee shot is a must on both. What looks like a newly built clubhouse was very welcoming and a nice place to have a post match meal or drink.This is a must play course and I will definitely return soon.

Played early October 2013 - Excellent condition and as it was windy a good test. Greens very good a true roll. Setting good and great scenery. Didn't use the clubhouse but this looks good so no reason to think it would match the rest of the course. A very hard last four holes, two long par 4's and two long par 3's. One I will definitely be back to.

A beautiful course in a lovely setting. Varied holes which are a fair test of all levels of golfer made this a Roxburghe-beater in my books. Definitely one to include on the Freedom of the Fairways rota, although the food in the clubhouse was nothing to write home about.
