Enjoy Three Separate Courses of Golfing Magic on Gullane Golf Tours

GULLANE

As befits such a prestigious club, with so much top-flight golf on offer within its beautifully maintained grounds, the situation of Gullane Golf Club is sublime. Even on a coast where you can find world-famous golf courses at nearly every twist in the road, many would argue that in terms of location, the Gullane golf courses, quite literally, claim the top spot.

From the crest of Gullane Hill, over which spreads championship-hosting Course No.1, the view encompasses King Arthur’s Seat rising above Edinburgh some twenty miles southwest, sweeps across the Firth of Forth, its iconic bridge and northern shores, before rounding northeast across the nearer shore, and the majestic spread of the neighbouring world-famous links at Muirfield. Little wonder Gullane Golf Course No.1 recently took fifth place behind international icons like Augusta and Pebble Beach in a poll of the World’s Most Picturesque Golf Courses.

There’s quality turf here, firm green, fast-running fairways, and the chance to play fabulous year-round golf. The Gullane Golf Club makes the most of every inch of it. Here you’ll find three fantastic 18-hole courses, each of subtly varying character, but together offering a guaranteed thrill for links enthusiasts of every persuasion.

Course Testimonials

Gullane 1

Golf’s First Power Trio

Named Gullane No.1, No.2 and No.3 (and laid out in 1884, 1889 and 1910, respectively), the courses present a Scottish banquet of links charm, character and challenge. The quality here is almost relentless, and it should be no surprise that golf was played on this ground over 350 years ago.

Courses No.2 and No.3 were designed and laid out by Scottish golfing legend Willie Park Jr. Course No.2’s play is shaped by much of the same rise and fall as No.1, which it follows for the first seven holes before spreading out around the beautiful Aberlady Bay. Course No.3 is the shortest, yet still, a fine test, though many come here to enjoy the marvellous view across the Firth of Forth after 36-holes of steep and bracing challenges on its siblings.

The Mystery of Gullane Hill

However, it is Gullane Golf Course No.1 that’s seen the lion’s share of championship golf over the years, from the Scottish Open and Ladies Scottish Open to Final Qualifying for the Open Championship on five occasions, numerous amateur championships and, as recently as 2018, the European Tour.

All have been drawn by Course No.1 and its singular air of mystery. Golf has been played here since the 17th century, yet the architect of this superb course remains unknown. These links, carved into the ancient turf of Gullane Hill, are unique in providing players with holes running over dramatic elevation changes, a challenge links golfers usually see little of. It’s as if nature herself gave lovers of links golf their very own mountain to conquer.

The inclusion of fine hospitality here, a children’s course, and recently improved practice facilities make a day spent on a Gullane golf tour a day spent lost in a golfing dreamworld. You may want to take two.
