Kings Acre Golf Club

Located just six miles from Edinburgh city centre, Kings Acre is a magnificent, relatively recent addition to the capital’s considerable golfing portfolio.

It is a comprehensive facility that includes a gold academy, plus a national custom-fitting service for Titleist and Cobra, but the golf course itself is what you’ll likely be most interested in.

Laid out on a beautiful piece of parkland by esteemed modern golf course architect Graeme Webster, the par-70 tract makes fantastic use of the natural contours of the land.

Stand-out features include strategically placed water hazards, over 50 bunkers and large, undulating, championship-quality greens.

The naturally sandy-based soil, meanwhile, ensures excellent playability all year round, so you can enjoy your golf there no matter the weather.
