Royal Musselburgh Golf Club

Tel: +44(0)1875 810276

This parkland course was designed by James Braid and in contrast to many of East Lothian's courses offers golfers views of Edinburgh and Arthur's Seat.

The golfing challenge comes on the homeward stretch where a series of par 4's are well protected by trees.

The 5th oldest club in the world, the magnificent clubhouse has a superb collection of golfing memorabilia.

Special feature: the par 3 14th, 'The Gully', penalises short approach shots with a 30 foot drop just in front of the putting surface.

The club were host to the World Junior Open in July 2002.
