About
Pumpherston Golf Club, designed by Graeme Webster, offers a superior golfing challenge, including water features over the length of the 6,000-yard, par-70 golf course and R&A-standard greens.
A round at Pumpherston Golf Club begins on Paraffin Young, a 398-yard par 4 that requires a straight drive and attention on hazards surrounding the green: bunkers right, deep rough behind. Hitters unpack long games on Pentlands, the 516-yard par-5 10th, which features a narrow fairway, requiring a straight tee shot; 150 yards from the green, the fairway drops, making a tricky approach. Close the round on Iranapol, another long hole, at 505 yards and par 5, and where water guards the green, meaning that length alone won't help you.
Book a seat in the Pumpherston Golf Club's clubhouse early - and let the clubhouse caterer know about any dietary restrictions, which the staff can work with - and head up for lunch and a drink with views of the golf course.

Cracking course
Played this for the first time after getting a good deal on golf now and was well worth the drive really nice layout and conditions. Will hopefully play again and would happily recommend to others, got my second eagle in my life on the signature hole with water which was nice bonus
Great course.
Great course with lots of character. A few water hazards to catch you out if you haven’t played it before.
First ever 18 holes in golf
Played my first ever 18 holes of golf here on Thursday and it didn’t disappoint! As a new golfer I’ve only played on my local 9 hole course so this experience was rather daunting but the course was great, the layout is exciting some really good holes with the fairways and tee boxes in excellent condition especially during peak golfing time and great weather. The greens were in fantastic condition and very fast in play but overall it was very enjoyable and the staff were great I’ll most definitely play here again.
Good Course
Good course and some stunning challenges. Definitely be back.
135 years old beautiful golf course
It’s a beautiful old golf course in Pumpherston, Scotland. The field is well maintained and still keep the same field set up. It is very worth to play.
Nice Challenge
First impression, nice bright club house, with friendly and helpful staff in the Pro shop.
The practice putting area, range and course are well maintained and all greens, as advised by the Pro, run true.
The course is quite open, but with a number of tee to green dog leg holes, lots of strategically placed bunkers and water to challenge all levels of golfer.
Our three ball, of mixed abilities, enjoyed the course and now that we have played it once we look forward to the challenge a second time.
Verdict - Worth a visit.
Interesting course
Good challenge for any handicap. Look out for the 2nd which is a challenging dog leg right and the 16th for the very brave/foolhardy who might go for the green on this short par 4. Friendly staff and nice clubhouse! Well worth a visit!!
Amazing course
An amazing course in West Lothian, lay out was fantastic as well as the condition, greens were really fast and bunkers were even great would highly recommend to anyone who’s looking to book as I will be back
Fantastic value for money using the app.
Very impressed with Pumpherston GC. Bought as a gift for my fathers birthday as my dad played here some 18 years ago. Starter was very friendly and helpful, just a young lad which is good to see. Course is in great condition and the greens are lightning quick. Good range of difficulty through every hole which is challenging but enjoyable. Only thing I will say is course knowledge will help your round greatly. We will definitely be back to play this course again.
Fantastic course
Beautifully maintained with fast, true greens. Strong winds made for a fun challenge today. Great value for money — highly recommend!
Good course
Good course well worth a visit and some challenging holes and a great price for a round.
Excellent course, well taken care of

Absolutely Superb Course Greens and Fairways excellent Condition..Highly Recommend and Definitely be back soon..!!
