A very warm welcome to The North Berwick Golf Club website, and I am certain that you will find these
pages helpful and of interest.
You will discover at North Berwick a Club steeped in tradition dating from 1832, providing generous
hospitality and a testing golf challenge. The course is a traditional links,
which like St Andrews, starts and finishes at the clubhouse within the town,
having wound its way along the Firth of Forth. there are stunning views over white sandy beaches, islands
and across to the hills of the East Neuk of Fife.
Our club has a long and proud history and is reputedly one of the world’s oldest with a continuous record
of play over the original seaside turf. In the 19th Century it hosted many of the legendary challenge matches
and today is proud to be a Final Qualifying venue for the Open Championship, when held at nearby Muirfield,
the next occasion being in 2013. In June 2010, we will co-host The Amateur Championship with Muirfield, which
will feature 300 of the best gentlemen amateur golfers in the world.
We have a course of real quality, presented and maintained to the
highest standards thanks to the efforts of Stuart Greenwood our Course Manager.
In our refurbished and extended clubhouse you will find a relaxed
and friendly atmosphere and be made welcome by David and Linda Houlston who manage our
clubhouse services. They can provide anything from a light snack and a drink
after your game to a full Sunday lunch or evening meal in the more formal surrounds of our historic wood
paneled dining room.
I hope you enjoy browsing the website and any comments are welcome in the
feedback section. I am very proud to be the Captain of this
prestigious Club and look forward to welcoming you to play and experience a truly wonderful Links, whose
memory will live with you long after you have returned home.
