A charming & playable coastal links hidden gem in the middle of Scotland’s illustrious golf coast. A short but challenging links course with tricky greens, well placed pot bunkers, strategic walls and magnificent views over the Firth of Forth, Gullane Hill and out towards Edinburgh and Fife.
Craigielaw clubhouse lodge gives you the best of both worlds with the modern championship links of Craigielaw and mere minutes from the charming, historic Kilspindie clubhouse. Add in serious practice facilities, par 3 course, a welcoming clubhouse restaurant, postcard coastal views, and you’ve got the perfect base for a relaxed-but-serious golf escape, without ever straying far from Edinburgh.

Craigielaw Golf Course
Modern links in East Lothian with firm fairways, cavernous bunkers and Moray Firth views.
| Tee | Par | Yardage | Rating | Slope | |
| White | 71 | 6601 | 129 | 72.5 | |
| Blue | 71 | 6043 | 124 | 70.0 | |
| Green | 71 | 5373 | 118 | 66.9 |
Hole 8 (Par 3) - Back left is your friend. Short left and you have a steep up and down, go too long and your OOB on Kilspindie's 17th.
Kilspindie
Historic seaside links in East Lothian tucked beside Aberlady Bay. A hidden gem with character.
| Tee | Par | Yardage | Rating | Slope | |
| White | 69 | 5494 | 108 | 67.0 | |
| Yellow | 69 | 5209 | 106 | 65.7 | |
| Red | 70 | 5092 | 105 | 65.3 |
Hole 3 (par 4) - Blind tee shot with Aberlady bay becoming to the right. Don't feel bad about bailing out left. Its very playable, you'll just be hitting out of the fescue... and you'll still have your ball.
Accommodation
Bright, golfer-designed room overlooking the decorative courtyard. Flexible setup as twin or double with generous en-suite.
Upstairs twin or double room with sweeping views across the Firth of Forth, ideal for a relaxing golf getaway.
