Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

- R WDubai, United Arab Emirates140 contributionsMy wife and I played at this fantastic golf course in Edinburgh. The booking was seamless and Benjamin at the club house was very friendly, courteous and took a lot of time walking us through the course layout and all the facilities. Despite it being a phone booking. Benjamin had our clubs and cart ready. Very impressed. Our only observation for improvement is the food menu that needs to be improved.Written 28 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Alex V1 contributionThe course was amazing with great views of Arthur's seat. Children get clubs for free and adults only have to pay five pounds. The pub also gave us a details map and scorecard of the course. Their pizzas were good too.Written 31 May 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- kwilldebrunesEdinburgh, UK49 contributionsI love this golf course. The good news is - there is hardly any rough. The bad news is - the rough is replaced with gorse! Interesting, challenging holes and the view of Edinburgh are spectacular.Written 23 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

SullivanLaguna Niguel, CA23 contributionsMy friend and I went to Mortonholl when our cruise ship stopped in Edinburgh. About a 25 minute Uber from the cruise terminal. Pretty ride as you get a tour of the city on the way to Mortonhall. Very friendly pro, Fraser, got us set up with our rental clubs. Most players walk this course, but we took a cart. They only have 6 carts, so call ahead if you need one like we did. Course was awesome. Challenging for sure if you don't hit the ball straight (like many courses). The biggest adjustment for us two Americans was to hit iron approach shots that land in front of the green and bounce on. If you go pinseeking, your ball will frequently end up over the green - the ball does not "check up" like on so many US courses. We got incredibly lucky with the weather - 72 and sunny with little wind. I'm sure its a much tougher track when its windy and rainy. Cost was a bit pricey. Greens fee of 100 pounds; rental clubs for 40 pounds, and 20 pounds for the cart. Overall, a really fun experience if you are on a cruise and don't have the time needed to get to the St. Andrew's area.Written 8 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- DesmondJH87 contributionsBruntsfield has undergone many changes since I was last here some years ago. These changes have made the club more accessible and the course much better. The stuffy jacket and tie Clubhouse has become much more relaxed. There is still great dining but you can pop in for a pint and a pie after golf now without shifting into mufti—a far more modern approach that I imagine most members will appreciate.
Many of the holes on the course have been redesigned and the old waterlogged feeling is completely gone. The green keeper came from Elie, and is working hard to build a more “all-season” turf. And there’s not a bad hole on the course. This should be a stop on every US golfer’s itinerary, although the club seems fine with minimal publicity. If you have the chance to drive the 12 minutes it takes to get there from the city center, it’s well worth the visit. If you haven’t been there since the changes, you’ll be amazed.Written 27 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Friendly welcome at the clubhouse (not usual), nicely laid out course, good greens.
Not too much to think about prior to shots though and bunkers soggy, but the latter is understandable.
All in all, a nice day out, but you'll need your sherpa legs onWritten 14 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Excellent course with good greens, was a little wet from overnight rain but still great. Really enjoyed the day.Written 13 July 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Chris CElizabeth, IN65 contributionsWanted to play golf while in Scotland but many private courses are restrictive. Found this public course and gave it a try. The starter was very polite. We rented clubs there and they were pretty beat up which was expected. Course was very tight. Tee's and greens were close and just a very compact course. Fairways and rough were extremely thick and grass everywhere where it was cut high and wet. Garbage cans overflowing and bits of trash here and there. An employee was mowing on multiple holes while we were trying to T off and playing the hole. Facilities were also rough and not much to offer in the way of food and drink. Basically just vending machines.Written 16 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

Format was a Texas scramble, which I find is a very good format for these type of events. It keeps things moving allows the higher handicappers to feel more part of the team and contribute and is fun! The course was presented extremely well with a number of challenging holes, exacerbated by the prevailing wind, and whilst not blowing a ‘hooly’ proved tough. The course is situated on the side of a hill so there are some steep climbs so carrying is only for the very fit and / or young at Turnhouse. Clubhouse & pro shop very nice and food offering both at lunch and high tea very acceptable. All the staff in clubhouse & pro shop were very friendly and if the area I would recommend playing Turnhouse.Written 30 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
