The beauty of Scotland’s Golf Coast is the variety of golf courses. With a mix of links and parkland there is a golf trip for all levels of golfer and all budgets.

All 21 courses are within 30 minutes of each other and thanks to the array of accommodation, East Lothian is the perfect golf destination for a short-break or a longer stay.

Resting on the Firth of Forth, Scotland’s Golf Coast has 30 miles of coast and some of the finest links land in the world. Inland, the Lammermuir Hills offer the perfect backdrop to classic parkland courses steeped in history.

The golfing towns of Dunbar, North Berwick, Gullane and Aberlady also offer a friendly and unique atmosphere. Once golf is done for the day, there is always a warm welcome.

Year-round golf

As a result of the region’s easterly location, well-draining links land and quality parkland turf, the courses can be played 365 days a year. East Lothian is renowned for having a dry climate and the courses take full advantage to showcase excellent conditions throughout the year.

Whether it’s shorts in summer, or a bobble hat in winter, a pint on the terrace after your round, or a dram in front of the fire, Scotland’s Golf Coast is full of memorable experiences.
