Frequently Asked Questions

Don't let the Par 67 fool you - is Liberton Golf Course still a good test of golf?

Absolutely, don't mistake the Par 67 for an easy stroll. Liberton's compact layout demands precision, and the undulating terrain, typical of Scottish courses, will test your short game and course management from start to finish.

When's the best time to play Liberton to avoid the worst of the Scottish weather?

We recommend late spring through early autumn - think May to September - for the most forgiving weather. You'll get longer daylight hours and generally milder conditions, though a waterproof layer is always a smart addition to your bag in Scotland.

What makes Liberton Golf Course stand out from other courses around Edinburgh?

Liberton offers some truly spectacular, unexpected views of Edinburgh Castle and the city skyline, especially from the higher holes. It feels like a genuine local club, welcoming and unpretentious, providing a refreshing contrast to some of the grander, more tourist-focused courses nearby.

Is Liberton Golf Course suitable for higher handicappers or those looking for a quicker round?

Yes, Liberton is quite welcoming for golfers of all abilities, making it a great option if you're not chasing a championship-level challenge. Its shorter Par 67 layout often means a quicker round, so it's perfect if you're fitting golf into a busy Edinburgh itinerary.

How easy is it to get to Liberton Golf Course from central Edinburgh, and what's the typical green fee?

Liberton is incredibly convenient, just a short bus ride or taxi journey south of Edinburgh's city centre. Green fees are generally very reasonable, offering excellent value for an enjoyable round with those fantastic city views, especially compared to some of the pricier options in the region.
