Braid Hills Golf Club

Edinburgh's Braid Hills Golf Course offers a city heathland golf course worth a visit, as, though the hills punish legs, the course provides a refreshing experience rather than a draining one. For most of the round, golfers will find themselves not noticing the steep terrain.

The Braid Hills Golf Course features such beautiful scenery that many golfers say a round passes too quickly, with walks between shots feeling shortened by players immersed in the views.

As the Braid Hills Golf Course is municipal, the settings are more spartan than many of the resort courses in the neighborhood: The best 19th hole option is the nearby Braid Hills Hotel.
