About
Above Scotland's Royal Burgh town of Linlithgow sits the Linlithgow Golf Club, featuring 18 holes amid farmland and hills, and views of the Ochil Hills, Union Canal and Forth Valley. It's about midway between Edinburgh and Glasgow. The golf course measures 5,863 yards - short enough to not do too much damage to the legs, long enough to require well-planned golf shots.
A round of golf at the Linlithgow Golf Club kicks off on Drambuie, a par-4 333-yard hole that plays short and straight, with a fairway that slopes down with minimal hazards. Things get increasingly tougher: By Deli's Dio, the ninth hole, you're looking at a long par 4, measuring 420 yards. The 18th, Union Canal, is another long par 4, measuring 413 yards, where you'll need to shoot a short carry over a ravine to reach an undulating tree-lined fairway - there's that canal, too, to keep things interesting.
The Linlithgow Golf Club clubhouse offers a lounge and restaurant for dinner, drinks, lunch and snacks.

Another enjoyable visit
Returned for my 3rd time . Was every much enjoy as the previous times . Absolutely loved it . Again conditions were great even with the recent change in weather . Work had been carried out on the greens but still very much playable . Great coarse
Great Local course at a fantastic orice
Friendly staff met us on arrival. Course pace of play was great and members even offered out hints and tips on some of the trickier, blind holes. Back to bar par 3’s and par 5’s made for an interesting few holes, something a little different too!
Not the longest course either so perfect for a quick round.
5* will be back.
poor green conditions
I booked a hot deal friday 8th september for tuesday 13th september for 3 guests paid £15.99 eqch I checked the next day to see if the other spot had been taken and found the price was reduced to £13.99 oer person the course was in good condition we were informed that maintenance work was being done the greens were in terible condition they had just been spiked so putting was not great i have played this course a few times but the conditions were not as bad i would recomend this course during the summer months
Great course
Absolutely loved my round . The coarse was in really good condition . Great mixture of holes from challenging to holes you can score well in . Layout was great and enjoyed the pace of the greens . My second time playing the coarse and would definitely play it again . Staff really nice from pro shop to clubhouse . Very welcoming Thankyou …
Another fantastic coarse
Really enjoyed our round on Sunday . Coarse was in great condition. Layout of coarse was great . Some holes challenging and some there for scoring well . Pace of the greens were good overall coarse was in great shape . Loved it will definitely be back to play coarse again
Good course but some poor fairways.
The course was generally interesting a good challenge and pleasurable to play but spoiled by some very rough or almost non-existent fairways and subsequent weird bounces and lost balls despite decent shots. A shame as spoiled an otherwise good course.
Very nice course
After going to the wrong area with the postcode from this website.
Course conditions great and greens immaculate.
Bar area great and football on TV, all and all a fantastic day.
Linlithgow visit
Course was in great condition especially the greens, well watered given the recent hot weather.
Some quirky holes but very enjoyable.
Great staff in pro shop and bar afterwards, made to feel very welcome as a visitor, not always true of all courses but this club was extremely welcoming and will definitely return and recommend.
Friendly club
First time playing great value for money short but hard course , very friendly and helpful at pro shop couldn’t do enough for us will be back
Excellent course and great food.
Played the course on Bank Holiday Monday and had lunch in the bar beforehand. Bar / restaurant staff were very friendly and the food was excellent and plentiful - would definitely recommend a visit before or after a round. The course itself is one to be enjoyed. Good mix of interesting holes with the par 3 17th just a fun hole to play. Condition of the course was very good. Will definitely play again soon.
Brilliant Golf Club!
Played myself on a Wednesday afternoon weather was warm and sunny, as soon as I arrived I was welcomed by a member of staff who took time to have a chat with me before taking me out and talking me through the course. The course upon first inspection seems like an opportunity for a lower score, but don’t be fooled it’s a tricky 18.
Precision off the tee is required to keep the score credible. When I reached the 14th, a member (Mike I believe?) asked if he could play in with me. He told me some history about the club and how a large group of members volunteered on Tuesday and Thursday’s too help keep the green in top condition.
Well kept course and greens were very good for the time of year. Views were excellent as well!
Finishing the round I was offered into the clubhouse for late lunch and to mix with the members who a few stopped to ask if I was new etc.
Overall a lovely experience which I thoroughly enjoyed. The members and the staff in the pro shop are a credit to the club which makes me highly recommend this club to any one looking to play a round in the area!
