Established in 1895, Duddingston Golf Club is one of the best parkland courses in the Lothians. The design of the course makes it challenging as it is set in the Shadow of Arthurs Seat with the meandering Brain Burn, one of the main hazards.
Located just 10 minutes from Edinburgh it is a great option when basing your golf break in the city, offering lively nights combined with the tranquil setting of the golf course.
