Can we play it?

Yes. Hillside publishes midweek and weekend visitor rates for 2027. The course is closed for maintenance from 19 October 2026 to mid-March 2027. Add it to your trip and Scotland Golf Tours requests the tee time for you.

  • Access

    Midweek and Saturday/Sunday visitor rates published for March–October 2027. Closed to visitors for winter maintenance 19 October 2026 to mid-March 2027.

  • The catch

    A 50% non-refundable deposit secures the booking (it can move to another date), with the balance due one month before play.

  • Our tip

    Pair it with Royal Birkdale next door. Request caddies ahead of time, and don't tee off when a train is approaching.
