About Silverknowes Golf Club

Silverknowes Golf Club sits on the northern edge of Edinburgh, close to the shore of the Firth of Forth near where the River Almond meets the estuary at Cramond. This stretch of the Edinburgh coastline looks out across the Forth toward Fife, with the wide, flat expanse of the estuary shaping a landscape quite different from the hillier ground found in the city centre around Arthur's Seat and the Old Town. The Silverknowes and Cramond districts developed largely as residential suburbs in the twentieth century, built along the coast road running west out of the city toward South Queensferry and the Forth bridges. As a course within the city boundary, Silverknowes gives Edinburgh residents access to golf without travelling out to the county courses further afield, occupying flat, open, shore-facing ground that is exposed to the wind coming off the Forth in a way the city's inland parks are not.

Where to find it

The address is Silverknowes Parkway, Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh, EH4 5ET. It is about 3.5 miles from Edinburgh. That is a straight-line distance. The sidebar links to the club website and lists its phone number. The map below shows the exact spot, because that helps with satnav.

Check the club website for tee times, because visitor rules differ by club. Ask for the current green fee, since we do not list one. Pack a waterproof layer, because UK weather changes fast.
