About North Berwick Golf Club
Founded in 1832, North Berwick Golf Club holds a distinguished place in the game, with its West Links ranked 25th in GOLF Magazine’s Top 100 Courses in the World for 2025–26. Set along the shores of the Firth of Forth in East Lothian, the course is celebrated for its imaginative design, coastal landscape and historic stone walls. Golf has been played here since the 17th century, and this enduring heritage, together with the quality and character of the West Links, continues to draw golfers from around the world.
The clubhouse provides a fitting conclusion to the golfing experience and remains central to the Club’s social life. Overlooking the 18th green, it dates to 1880, with original lockers, historic trophies and honours boards connecting its present-day community to generations past. Views across the links, town and harbour create a distinctive setting in which members and guests can relax and enjoy warm, attentive hospitality—a personal welcome that complements the Club’s international standing.
