Characteristics

Located just minutes from Edinburgh's city centre, Ravelston Golf Club offers a surprising sanctuary of calm amidst the capital's bustle. Founded in 1912, this 9-hole parkland course bears the signature of the legendary James Braid, who refined the layout into a strategic test of golf. While not the longest course, it demands precision over power, particularly on the deceptive, undulating greens that challenge even seasoned putters. The course creates a unique visual experience, offering panoramic views that stretch from the rugged hills of Fife and the Firth of Forth to the iconic silhouette of Edinburgh Castle. Known as a "village club in the city," Ravelston prides itself on a welcoming community atmosphere, making it a delightful hidden gem for visitors seeking a historic round.

Family place

Due to the rain, the originally booked space was closed. We were greeted warmly and were the attraction in the small club.
The place is well maintained.
