Whitekirk


Situated in the heart of East Lothian, Whitekirk Golf & Country Club is a great place for all to relax and enjoy a game of golf on their challenging 18 hole course. The club combines tradition, refined décor, a warm welcome and quality service all in an exceptionally beautiful setting.

Approximately two miles from the sea, Whitekirk has a links feel, but your golf is played on rich, fertile, grassy fairways. The course was cleverly designed by Cameron Sinclair who used the natural water hazards and undulating terrain to produce an enjoyable challenge for all levels of golfer. Many of the tees are elevated to make the most of the idyllic views. Despite only opening in 1995, the course has already earned championship status, hosting annually from 1998 to 2001 the PGA Mastercard Tour and from 2002 onwards the Sky televised PGA Europro Tour.

Set on Whitekirk hill the course enjoys commanding views of East Lothian, Fife and the many famous landmarks, including the Bass Rock and Tantallon Castle. Though the course is relatively young it shows no sign of its age, with gorse covered banks and lush fairways. Many of the tees are elevated to make the most of the these sites, so even if your golf is not so good, the surroundings will more than make up for it. The course has returning nines which makes playing 27 holes possible, for those whom 36 holes are too much.
