Portobello Golf Course
Now open and available for booking!
With Arthur's Seat as an attractive backdrop this nine hole parkland course is a beautifully prepared and forgiving course.It plays to its 2566 yards par 32, and the small tight greens make for accurate approach shots. The signature hole is the long par 3 9th. This 198 yard hole requires a straight long iron, avoiding the bunkers at 150 yards, and plays up to a sloping green making it a great hole to finish on.
