Prestonfield Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
The Prestonfield Golf Club sits in the Scottish capital of Edinburgh, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Europe's top golfing destinations. James Braid, one of golf's best known-designers, laid out the golf course, which challenges players to hit the par of 70 while traversing its 6,207 yards. The course includes two oversize par-5s, compensated for by a batch of par-3 that come up short by modern measurements.
Then there's all the stuff in the middle: The heart of the course is its par-4s, which provide both distance and challenge, depending both on players' strength and which way the wind blows. A round of golf at the Prestonfield Golf Club kicks off on Cragend, a 291-yard par 4 that makes for an excellent way to open a game, with its slight dogleg right. Watch out for the parking lot on the right.
After the round, head to the Prestonfield Golf Club's clubhouse for coffee, cocktails and a daily lunch menu.

Beautiful course in sunshine
Enjoyed a wonderful round on an immaculately prepared course in stunning sunshine. Couldn't ask for any more. Nice welcome on arrival at Pro shop, everyone I encountered was friendly and helpful. Lovely club and I will be back on my next visit to Edinburgh.
Arthur’s Seat…..what a view
Outward six was a very pleasant start and the last six are a changing challenge. The course was in great condition after the drenching of the last few weeks. Staff and fellow golfers were exceptional friendly.
Excellent course
The most beautiful and in best conditions course I've ever played. Such a nice golf course. All 18 holes are nice to play, long fairways, excellent greens and a wonderful layout of this course.
Go and play, that's all what I can say!
I'll definitely come back to play!
