The Haddington Golf Club is a parkland golf course in what was once a country estate. The course sits in a peaceful walled environment, bounded by the River Tyne to the north. The course, which lies within 130 acres, has numerous natural features and a lot of indigenous wildlife - and it challenge all levels of golfer.

The golf course also offers two long par-5s: the 513-yard 11th hole and the 520-yard 13th hole. Haddington Golf Club additionally offers a large practice area.

See the town after your game. Haddington sits off Highway A1, approximately 18 miles to Edinburgh's east, and can be easily reached from Central Scotland and Northern England. The historic burgh offers many historical and architecturally unique restaurants.

First Time Playing

The day was totally ruined by being stuck behind a party of thirty odd players in four balls playing a match of some sort we gave up after 4 hours after 14 holes.

The course is fairly average and I don’t think it was value for money and I certainly wouldn’t pay £50 For the privilege

Haddington golf course - autumn round of golf

Really enjoyed a game at a scenic Haddington Golf course in early Autumn. Staff could not have been more helpful. I play a lot of links golf and fancied a game on an inland course, this one is under-rated in my view. Very good driving course and some tricky approach shots. Greens good.

Great condition

Course condition very good, nice to play par 3s where you can play an Iron instead of a wood. We had a buggy and were fortunate to be waved through by the four ball in front. Greens were in good condition considering the dry weather we have had, but very difficult to read. This is not the longest course but still a challenge. Well worth a try.

Fantastic course, super pro shop & excellent catering

This is an excellent parkland course with many exciting holes. The very friendly staff and members enhanced our experience by making the course very welcoming. I especially love the water features and the new burn along the front of the 3rd green. The pro shop is very well stocked and there's also a new indoor golf studio. We finished off our day with a superbly presented and very tasty meal. I would very much recommend this course to anyone thinking of golfing in East Lothian.
