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.

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.
