Newbattle Golf Club

Overview: Designed by the master architect Harry S. Colt and established in 1934, Newbattle Golf Club is a premier 18-hole parkland course situated within the historic boundary of the Newbattle Abbey estate. The layout is a par 69, measuring 5,912 yards, and is celebrated for its majestic tree-lined fairways and the strategic influence of the River Esk. The course reflects Colt’s trademark design principles, featuring well-guarded greens and bold hazards that demand a thoughtful approach. Newbattle offers a serene and refined round of golf that highlights the natural beauty and historic grandeur of the Midlothian countryside.

Did You Know? The course is situated on land formerly owned by the Cistercian monks of Newbattle Abbey, and the mature timber that lines the fairways includes specimens dating back several centuries. The "Monk's Walk" and several historic stone bridges remain integral features of the landscape, providing a round that is as much a historical tour as a sporting challenge.
