Simply beautiful

The course is really nice, and a perfect alternate to the Links courses. If you love big trees, this is your place. Restaurant was just OK. Don't ask for a shower: ladies don't have one, men's requires urgent renovation. Staff is simply wonderful.

Well worth a visit.

Although a resident of East Lothian, I'd never played Haddington before. Golf Now offered a chance to remedy this at a very reasonable price.
Staff were very friendly and helpful. Really enjoyed playing this lovely parkland course, with a good variation of holes and challenges.
Will definitely be back, and might even consider possibly taking out a membership in the future is subsequent visits are as good as this first visit.
Certainly worth a visit.

Good condition

Course was in very good condition considering the dry weather we’ve had lately, with the greens running true. It was a very windy day (it’s been a windy summer) making it an additional challenge, and would like to return on a calmer day.
Very friendly staff in the club house.

Wet weather
Walked

Well kept course at an excellent price

Really enjoyed our wet walk around Haddington. The course is for the most part long, open and straight with bunkers forming the bulk of the hazards you might encounter (with a water-protected green on the 18th being a nasty surprise for those who favour the left). A few memorable holes peppered through what is still a very pleasant environment, particularly by the river.

Greens ran much faster than you might expect from their mossy, parkland appearance and were in good condition.

Water logged but fine

The wettest I’ve seen the course so slushy and muddy in parts but all the greens were in good condition. Enjoyed it.

Great Value

Haddington GC greens during winter have one of the best putting surfaces out of the sub £30 green fee courses. Always quiet, always friendly.

Reasonable price

Just played Haddington golf club today
Windy day so quite challenging played around my handicap of 12 so not too bad for a first visit
The guy in the pro shop very helpful
Quite a well layed out course well signposted so as not to get lost
Unfortunately though I was a little disappointed with the condition of the fairways and greens
Won’t be returning when I’m back in Scotland
