Newbattle Golf Course

Newbattle Golf Course occupies a mature parkland site at Dalkeith in Midlothian, with tree-lined fairways and bunkers placed by the original designer, Harry S. Colt, to test position off the tee rather than sheer distance. The 18-hole layout plays to a par of 69 over 5,912 yards and has built a reputation locally for the standard of its greens and fairways, which the club maintains as a particular point of focus through the year. Dalkeith sits just southeast of Edinburgh, and Newbattle's setting draws on the wooded estate land common to this part of Midlothian, giving the course a settled, established feel that reflects its age. The clubhouse runs a bar and kitchen serving snacks and full meals to both members and visitors, and the club organises a regular calendar of social events alongside its golf, from quiz nights to functions in its hall. Visitors and members book tee times separately through the club's own online system, and buggies are permitted on the course for those who need them. Its combination of a Colt design, established parkland setting and proximity to Edinburgh makes Newbattle a regularly used course for golfers across Midlothian and the wider Lothian area.

Newbattle Golf Course plays over 18 holes, a par of 69, and a length of 5,912 yards.
