Gullane No. 1 has a long history of hosting national and international championship golf events. Carved into the ancient links turf, pot bunkers, wispy grasses and smooth-running greens offer a unique challenge for the serious golfer. Add to that, the fabulous views and you have one of the world's most cherished golfing experiences.
Gullane No. 2 was laid out by the legendary Willie Park Jr. Running alongside No. 1 for the first seven holes, the course sweeps down to a nature reserve next to Aberlady Bay before turning back towards home and the visitors' clubhouse. The beauty of the coastline and the challenge of the layout create an unforgettable round that opitomises links golf in Scotland. Whilst shorter than its older sibling, it provides an equally stern test, with challenge and charm in equal doses.
Gullane No. 3 was also designed by Willie Park Jr in 1910. It may be the shortest of the three courses but it provides a wonderful test based on shot-making skills rather than power. Of all courses at Gullane, No. 3 enjoys some of the best views across Aberlady Bay to Edinburgh and the Firth of Forth beyond. Spectacular and challenging, No. 3 is a course that demands a deft touch and a cool head. This is no soft option, despite a lack of yards, the course still presents the classic Gullane challenge of strategic course management, true running greens and numerous bunkers to be avoided.
