Niddry Castle Golf Club

5* Pace of Play: wasn’t very busy and we weren’t being hurried from behind by a scratch solo nor were we be slowed down from in front by a slow 4ball. Couldn’t be better.

4* Course Conditions: generally good, a few spots on the green which were being tended to is the only reason this isn’t a perfect score but still excellent.

5* Staff Friendliness: Greeted by Club Captain Mike who showed us around and gave us some tips to begin with. In the middle of the round approached by another member of staff who ensure we knew how to get out safely once finished. Another perfect catagory.

5* Value for money: both the membership and visitor tee fees being so affordable for this course is a steal.

5* Course Layout: If I could give 6* for course layout I would. One of the best courses I have had the pleasure of playing it is such a hidden gem. Especially holes 2,3,4,7,17 and 18.

4* Off Course Anemities: Despite having practice nets and a putting area, its artificial grass on the putting area and no driving range to fully practice on. Clubhouse seems nice. Definitely has all you need and definitely great value but just a little shy from what it needs regards to be perfect.

Can’t wait to play again.

A quirky layout with plenty of gettable par 4s. Greens were so long that I gave up putting half way through. I've played on many fairways with shorter grass than the greens here. Also not kept well.

The clubhouse was not open on arrival so nowhere to get a scorecard from, nor a drink. The directions to the first tee could be better.

Would not return.

Loved the variety of the 18 holes. There are a few blind shots but that added to the challenge. The course for this time of year was in good condition. (In my opinion) Lovely setting with Niddrie Castle the central feature of the course. Not the longest of courses, but that suited me with accuracy a key part to lower scores as danger is all around. Overall, I enjoyed my round and will certainly come back again.

All in all a good fun course. Greens were a bit of a lottery and fairways were a bit on the long-cut side but it was April and, probably most importantly, it was 30-quid - which felt is good value for an 18 with plenty variety and a nice feature in having the castle as a centre piece. Will play again for sure.

Played Sunday 6th April…clubhouse staff were lovely and did a break down of what felt like every hole 😂 very helpful though with it being first time playing the course. Very quirky front 9, back 9 a bit more standard layout! Greens were in brutal state after being cored week previous! £30 for the round wasn’t great value but would play again if better deals. Enjoyable though and friendly members round the course

Amazing welcome, if you want friendly people to speak to and an enjoyable course this ticks all the boxes.

Nice wee course, quite wet for this time of year understandably. Could have been in a little better nick - no warm up facilities and putting green was a mess at the clubhouse. Not too long, but back and forth for some of the holes trying to find the next tee.

Lovely course...

Tucked away in Winchburgh this is a course which looks straightforward but has

a few challenges..played on a quiet Sat afternoon in Feb...and although it had been

wet..NO winter greens in use..doesnt look too long but testing all the same..

2 x 14 handicaps playing and great value overall..

Original 9 holes still as good as ever, and the newer 9 now complementing..

Staff were lovely, and bacon rolls and cups of coffee tremendous..

Thankyou!

Course is worth a visit were made to feel very welcome and the lady in the club house looked after us very well. The course has some really good holes and the views are great if you like that thing . We enjoyed the course and would go back.

Enjoyed playing the course, the greens were very slow, but overall it was a in good condition for this time of year ...
