Golf Holidays in East Lothian & Edinburgh

East Lothian, located on the East coast of Scotland just a short drive away from Edinburgh, is a cracking golf destination that is filled with championship courses on every turn.

Otherwise known as Scotlands golf coast, East Lothian is home to 22 golf courses spread across a 30 mile stretch along the natural and rugged coastline. Featuring such world famous layouts as North Berwick Golf Club, the three courses at Gullane, the incredible Muirfield or perhaps the popular designs of Craigielaw and Kilspindie, this is truly a golfers paradise.

The accommodation options found here provide a traditional warm Scottish welcome and fits golfers to a tee. What better way to relax than enjoy a dram or two at your hotel and celebrate your latest victory with your golf group.

The hub and capital city of Edinburgh is host to endless accommodations options, a vibrant city which is well worth a visit when staying in the area. Why not spend the evening down its famous Royal Mile and indulge in the historic pubs and bars that are ready to make your acquaintance. The two stay and play resorts just outside the city centre, The Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club and Macdonald Cardrona are perfect for a short stay and play break and come highly recommended by the team here at Golf Escapes.

East Lothian combines the very best of Scotland, and its legendary status, rich golfing history and superb links layouts is a must visit on your next Scotland golf holiday.
