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.

Forgiving course

Played this course previously and I would recommend it to anyone within the locality or willing to travel, course is starting to pay short now, probably because of the weather changes, some water lying about, but otherwise in good condition . Shame that the clubhouse catering was closed, missed out on our bacon roll and coffee, sense the amenity score

Great little 18 holer!!

I think this is a great little course, which also suits golfers with mid to high handicaps well! Some really good holes out there! I’m sure I will play this course a few more times before the year end and if it was closer to my home town it would be getting serious consideration for full membership!! The bar staff were very friendly and very welcoming.

Good test for anyone

Course was a bit wet after two days of torrential rain but very little lying water. Plenty tricky holes to keep you interested. It's generally flat except a longish walk from 11th to 12th and 17th to 18th

Good course would certainly recommend and will return again

Great course

First time we have played this course and will definitely be back, played as 2 ball with 12.07 tee time, smashing course with some great water features and lovely holes, particularly enjoyed the back 9 as more parkland than the front 9, members very friendly, didn’t get a chance to use facilities due to COVID restrictions.

Good course the get WI’ll test everybody level

Great value for money and the course despite a heavyweight downfall of water over the past few days seemed to hold up well, play was a little slow due to a four ball in front of us, this was interrupted by a single player who wanted to play through everyone, but it did not put us off our game and pace.

Staff were welcoming and friendly, exercising he covid regulations in the clubhouse, and a good selection of food on the menu. We’ll worth a visit .

Always worth a round

Played the course 3 or 4 times and it is always in good condition. Plenty of character throughout the course and has some lovely par 3s. The 16th with water on 3 sides is always lovely to play. Excellent value for money and would definitely recommend
