Lovely course
The course is good not to hard not to easy good for guys and girls in the 14-21 handicap range, side note the guy in the pro shop was very nice and very helpful
Lovely Golf Course in the Heart of Edinburgh
Have played this course a few times. Convenient to the City of Edinburgh, well laid out, challenging holes as well as a few fun ones. Course in excellent shape. Pace of play was very good: 3.5 hours. Recommend it!
Beautiful parkland course.
Thoroughly enjoyed my round at Liberton. First time playing there and I'll definitely be back. Greens were in great condition and a good variety of holes, nothing too long but some challenging layouts. Highly recommend.
Mature 18 hole course that's not too long
The course was in pretty good condition for the time of year. Preferred lies. It's a short, 18 hole course with a good variety of holes. Rolls & coffee in the clubhouse (nice old building). Professional & clubhouse staff friendly.

A tight wee course with small greens, not long but difficult if you stray offline
Great for shorter hitters
Many of the holes are less than 400 yards so you may not always need a driver off the tee. Some narrow fairways and dogleg layouts, requiring thought and accuracy rather than max distance. Overall course condition was very good on an autumnal day. Staff and members were friendly, so well worth a visit.
Such a Gem of a Course!!
Played here a handful of times now. Really decent course with friendly staff. I play with a high handicap and found it pretty easy to keep hold of my balls on this course as an added bonus! Cheers!
Liberton
Well presented course, holes not too long, suitable for mid- high handicaps. Good for a visiting party as two rounds in a day not beyond most. Add an extra half hour to Google maps as traffic to the location very slow.
Polwarth Open Round
Played here for the Polwarth Open. Thoroughly enjoyed the course and the group I played with. Front nine is slightly trickier than the back with many pins being hidden and protected well by bunkers and mounds making for a challenging approach. Generally the course is short with tight, sloped fairways requiring a precise tee shot on all par 4s. Highlight was the longer par 3 17th, Polwarth Tavern hole.
A good test in town
Narrow fairways with lots of trees to keep your drives honest, some blind shots and tricky elevation changes to challenge your course management, and a few testing greens make this a really good course in the centre of town. Highly recommend
