Gullane - No.2 Course

About

Holes 18
Type Private
Style Links
Par 71
Length 6396 yards
Slope N/A
Rating N/A

The No. 2 course at Gullane Golf Club was constructed in 1898. Now, the first and 18th holes sit east of A198. The first seven holes parallel Gullane No. 1, and then the action shoots toward the natural reserve adjacent to the Aberlady Bay, then turns back toward the Visitors' Clubhouse.

Gullane No. 2 offers great short holes, especially the 11th, with its fantastic view and strategic club selection. Make no mistake, though: the long holes are long. The sixth hole is a 498-yard par-5, and the 16th is a 527-yard par-5.

The golf course hosted the 1980 final qualifying for the Open Championship and the 2000 Seniors Open Amateur Championship.

Scottish links dream

I’m an American. If I closed my eyes and imagine what it must like to play golf in Scotland, this is it. And at a quarter the price of other places.

Incredible place. Wish I coulda played more rounds.

Great Course

From start to finish, the experience was value for money. Checking in was simple, and there was plenty of parking. The complimentary practice balls and tees are a nice touch. Warm-up facilities are spot on. The guys at the tarters' hut were very helpful and explained the layout. Out of the control of the club, slow play was caused by a 4-ball out of their depth.

Did anyone ever have a bad day out at Gullane?

First time playing Gullane 2 for a few years - it never disappoints.

The course, the views and the staff are always excellent. This time the new starters hut was open and this only adds to the experience (who doesn't like a free tee and a pencil?).

We lucked out with the weather. There was no wind - which is a rare day in the East of Scotland.

The course was in excellent condition given it has been played on all winter by large groups and travelling central belt golfers. It is a test for any golfer.

5* any day of the week.

Fantastic links course, in great condition

We had a fantastic time playing Gullane 2. The course is in great condition, particularly given the time of year, and I would highly recommend. The only disappointment was that hole 9 was closed for maintenance, which we weren’t informed of prior to playing.

Excellent

My first experience with Links golf and I was blown away by all aspects of my visit today. We got perfect, pin bright and no wind weather so it was just an absolute joy.

Course tests all aspects of your game. Greens and fairways were immaculate and the staff were exceptional and friendly. Would 100% recommend

Greens immaculate

Course was in great condition for the time of year. Some temporary tee mats on but to be expected at this time of year. The greens were brilliant and very fast. I was a one ball with 2 4 balls out in front and still made it round in just over 3 hours with minimal waiting about. Will be back to play No.1 next time

Great day

Course was very good. Greens were in great condition as was the rest of the course. Rough was light in most places and most holes allowed you to be a little wayward. Excellent view over the Firth of Forth for 13 of the holes.

Clubhouse was first class. Recently renovated it had a lovely ambience. Staff were all friendly and helpful.

Great touch is 30 free balls to warm up right beside the first tee. We invited to play through a four ball of members.

Definitely be back.

Friendly, welcoming, top notch practise area - great course!

Couldn’t have enjoyed playing no. 2 any more. Course was in great condition, super challenging and technical in parts and was a great place to spend an afternoon with my Dog. As you climb up to the top of the 3rd hole, the view is spectacular - and you keep this for the whole round.

Well worth a round! Don’t miss out

Brilliant from start to finish.

Couldn’t have asked for a better first round at Gullane 2. The weather was gorgeous and the reception my friend and I received was equally good. The practice facilities are brilliant. The starter was really friendly and kind. The course was in impeccable condition and the clubhouse was a delight too. Can’t wait to return!
