Linlithgow Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Above Scotland's Royal Burgh town of Linlithgow sits the Linlithgow Golf Club, featuring 18 holes amid farmland and hills, and views of the Ochil Hills, Union Canal and Forth Valley. It's about midway between Edinburgh and Glasgow. The golf course measures 5,851 yards - short enough to not do too much damage to the legs, long enough to require well-planned golf shots.
A round of golf at the Linlithgow Golf Club kicks off on Drambuie, a par-4 333-yard hole that plays short and straight, with a fairway that slopes down with minimal hazards. Things get increasingly tougher: By Deli's Dio, the ninth hole, you're looking at a long par 4, measuring 420 yards. The 18th, Union Canal, is another long par 4, measuring 413 yards, where you'll need to shoot a short carry over a ravine to reach an undulating tree-lined fairway - there's that canal, too, to keep things interesting.
The Linlithgow Golf Club clubhouse offers a lounge and restaurant for dinner, drinks, lunch and snacks.

Linlithgow Golf Course - Fabulous
My son and I played the course for the first time and thoroughly enjoyed the experience and hope to do so again before I return to South Africa. Can honestly not fault our experience ... a hilly course for sure and for those who are maybe not as fit as we are (although I am not a youngster) they may want to hire a battery operated buggy.
Great day had by all course in excellent condition
Decent Course
Played in a two ball yesterday, staff very friendly at the pro shop to start with. Course was in decent condition with nice fairways and good bunkers although most of the greens were very bobbly which made judging pace difficult. Course layout was my main issue, number of fairways where it felt like you simply could not find a landing spot as the slopes were pretty severe. Made it a good test but for me but my playing partner who is a beginner found it tough! I would play again.
