“This beautifully manicured course, with a stunning shoreline clubhouse, is an absolute must for any golfer wishing to golf in East Lothian, Scotland’s Golf Coast.

The Glen is Scotland’s answer to the much heralded Pebble Beach”

— ANDREW COLTART, FORMER RYDER CUP AND EUROPEAN TOUR PLAYER

“In my global search for the best surprises in golf, Glen Golf Club sits near the top of my list. Americans travel to Scotland for the challenge, the scenery, the history and the welcome – it’s a wonder any of us leave the Glen, where they all reside in abundance. It is a golf course that I could play all day, every day. A trip to North Berwick is not complete without a happy climb to the green peaks of the Glen.”

TOM COYNE, US GOLF WRITER

Tom is the author of “A Course Called Scotland” being published in 2018 and features his first visit to the Glen. 

“The abundance of stunning views on offer at the Glen is worth every penny of the green fee. The fact that it is an incredibly enjoyable golf course to play and in a fantastic condition is a real added bonus.”

GARY NICOL, EUROPEAN TOUR COACH

This wonderful 18-hole design collaboration by James Braid and Ben Sayers boasts some momentous holes. Built on the headland just outside North Berwick, it is a dazzling stage set for golf.”
