A hosting venue for many important competitions and an Open Championship qualifying course, North Berwick’s famous West Links is one of those tracks that has just about everything. There are walls in front of some greens, plenty of wind to deal with, fast greens, undulating fairways and it runs alongside the seafront. If you’re good at playing imaginative golf as you make your way around, you and North Berwick could just be a perfect fit.
Every single hole will make you think about what to do next, but don’t forget to take in the fabulous views of the Firth of Forth, Bass Rock and Craigleith Island. The 15th is one of the most copied holes in world golf, it’s a long par-three that requires a long carry. It’s a little uphill and a little blind, and features a green that slopes away from you. Take your favourite club and hit your very best shot!
North Berwick itself is one of Scotland’s finest seaside towns, so when you have a day off it’s a good idea to explore the town. Take a long walk along the iconic beach, explore the town’s historic associations with witchcraft, gaze in awe at Bass Rock and spend some time at the excellent Scottish Seabird Centre. And if you enjoy the bright lights of the city, Edinburgh is just 25 miles away.
Thanks to its location close to some of the best courses in Scotland, North Berwick is a popular choice for tour parties. Gullane, Muirfield and Dunbar are all within easy reach of here. If you like the idea of the trip but don’t relish the organising, why not leave everything to our experienced and knowledgeable specialists.
