Glen Golf Club: A Hub of Championship Golf
Glen Golf Club, frequently referred to as the East Links of North Berwick, is one of the most popular and scenic golf courses on Scotland's Golf Coast. While neighboring courses are traditional low-lying links, The Glen is a spectacular cliff-top course that boasts unmatched panoramic views of the Firth of Forth, the Fife coast, and the world-famous Bass Rock.
The East Links Course
Originally laid out in the late 19th century, the current 18-hole, par 70 layout was shaped by legendary designers James Braid and Ben Sayers in 1906. The course is characterized by elevated tees, undulating fairways, and challenging approach shots that are heavily influenced by the coastal winds. The signature 13th hole, known as the 'Sea Hole', is a stunning par 3 played from an elevated tee down to a green nestled directly beside the beach, offering a truly unforgettable golfing moment.
