Kilspindie Golf Club, Kilspindie, East Lothian, Scotland

For a late afternoon round in the Edinburgh area, we could think of no better place than the quaint and charming Kilspindie Golf Club in Aberlady, just down the road from Gullane. An ancient club, in fact the original Luffness Golf Club (before Luffness "New" came about in the late 1800's), it is a fun, linksy, even quirky golf course not even measuring 6000 yards, but so much fun. The finish is especially entertaining, two short par-4s, with the green on 17 hidden behind an old stone wall, and 18 not even a full driver back to the old clubhouse. Inside the clubhouse, you will find one of our favorite "19th holes," a room that serves both as bar, club room, and locker room, with lockers on the walls! Bring your jacket and tie and have dinner in the adjacent dining room. Kilspindie is the epitome of what Scottish golf is all about, head over for an afternoon round!
