Can we play it?

Yes, the club says it warmly welcomes visitors. It doesn't publish fixed visitor times or a handicap rule. Add it to your trip and Scotland Golf Tours requests the tee time for you.

  • Access

    The club doesn't list visitor-only days or times. Groups and golf days are welcome, and the club builds tailored packages for them.

  • The catch

    The price jumps on 15 May. A weekday round is £80 until 14 May, then £125. Weekends cost more all year, and £160 in summer.

  • Our tip

    Make it your base. The Lodge is attached to the clubhouse, and Gullane, Muirfield and Kilspindie are all within about 11 minutes. The club sells 2-night dinner, bed and breakfast packages with 3 rounds (2 at Craigielaw, 1 at Kilspindie).
