Friendly well presented course

Played the course for the first time in May. The pro was really helpful in the shop giving us a good description of the course lay out. The greens were in really good condition, and the layout of the course was great with some interesting memorable holes. Look forward to coming back and playing it again.

Easy but value for money

A great wee course located in the suburbs of Edinburgh. Very tight and compact so quite forgiving if you don't hit the fairway. Some easy par 4's which are driveable. Nice course, not the toughest but very good value for money.

Liberton GC

Played Liberton GC 14/5/23 and it was in good condition for the time of year. Very friendly and helpful Pro who was very welcoming as always. The game was played in good spirit on a well laid out course which I can highly recommend. Catering is also available until 8.00pm and we enjoyed a hearty meal at the end of our game. The bar and catering staff were very friendly and professional and I can also highly recommend their catering and bar services. Looking forward to returning again soon... Robert Cooper MBE

Great course though members can be rude

Played a 4 ball with a couple of guys who hadn't played in a while so we were slower going round. We let a 2 ball play through us on the 3rd as they had already caught up. The next group, a 4 ball, caught up quite soon after but we continued on. On the 8th they rudely told us to hurry up and that we were backing up the course. The gentleman who told us was overly aggressive which was completely unnecessary. Apart from this inconvenience, the course itself was top notch and can't fault it.

Very wet

In my opinion the course should have been closed. The paths tee surrounds were a mud bath. This coupled with mats of the fairways & some very short par 3s due to the winter greens and our equipment absolutely caked in mud, made this a pretty poor experience. On a positive note, although the main greens were not on, they looked amazing albeit very wet.

Enjoyable challenge

7 greens were temporary and we drove off mats. Weather was perfect with no wind so an enjoyable round. A bit muddy in places but no surprise in January. Course was generally in good condition. Friendly starter & folks on course

Good game

The course was good given the weather at this time of year but enjoyed it nonetheless. The gentleman at the desk was very pleasant and friendly. I will definitely be back as I have done so many times before 5 stars on all levels with course and staff. A great course and a must try.

Great value, good course

Greens were just aerated, which may explain the lack of traffic on the course. Or maybe it was my 3pm weekday tee time. Anyway, course was in fine shape and I still found the greens quite manageable. Pace was excellent, played in just under 3 hours but wasn’t rushed. Hope I get the opportunity to play the course again soon.

Great course

Played here a few times now and it never disappoints. Friendly staff and the course especially the greens are always in fantastic condition. Only disappointing thing is no par 5’s but still a great course to play and it is an easy walking course. Will be back a few more times and will definitely tell friends about it.

Liberton GC

It was our second round of the day on a beautiful, dry, sunny afternoon. The course was very busy but the patrons and the staff were extremely courteous and friendly. The greens were of a good standard and well prepared despite a prolonged and dry spell of weather in the East coast of Scotland. Overall a lovely but tight parkland course - with some interesting holes in a relatively compact piece of land.

Great Round

Really enjoyed this challenging course- greens well irrigated and in great condition but navigating to next tees not always easy - just needs a few signs please! Also a few markers for greens when you are playing blind approaches would be helpful.

Staff really helpful and friendly - definitely play this again but maybe when fairways are a bit softer as like playing off concrete at the moment.

Super Friendly

Came for a round after work, the course was hard but it’s really not rained in weeks. They had watered the greens so they were rolling great and a lot greener that the rest of the course. One of the friendliest welcomes I have had as a visitor. Well worth a. Visit.
