Gullane Golf Club — No.1 Course
Gullane No.1 is the championship course at Gullane Golf Club and a natural East Lothian anchor alongside Muirfield and North Berwick. Its greatest planning advantage is flexibility: Gullane operates three courses from the same village, making it possible to build a serious multi-round day or a broader links swing without adding unnecessary road miles.

Course character
No.1 climbs over Gullane Hill before returning towards the village, creating repeated changes in elevation, direction and exposure. The round asks for controlled trajectory and disciplined placement rather than one-dimensional power, especially when the wind strengthens across the higher ground.
The club describes No.1 as its championship links. TGG treats that as the starting point for planning: match the course to your group’s ability, the likely wind window and the rounds you intend to play before and after it.
Who it suits
- Experienced links golfers: a strong fit when strategic positioning and wind management are part of the appeal.
- East Lothian multi-course trips: particularly efficient because No.2 and No.3 share the same Gullane base.
- Groups balancing premium and value rounds: use No.1 as the anchor, then mix in No.2 or No.3 depending on budget and walking load.
Stay · Play · Recover
Stay: base in Gullane or North Berwick for the shortest transfers, or Edinburgh when city time matters as much as golf.
Play: pair Gullane No.1 with Muirfield and North Berwick for a compact East Lothian course swing. If the group wants a second Gullane round, No.2 or No.3 can reduce transfer time and simplify the day.
Recover: the combination-ticket format can tempt groups into over-scheduling. Protect the premium rounds by treating the second round as optional when weather, walking load or pace of play has already taken its toll.
East Lothian Course Swing
- Muirfield: secure first if availability is the constraint.
- Gullane No.1: use as the flexible championship anchor.
- North Berwick West Links: add for a different architectural character and town-based finish.
- Gullane No.2 or No.3: use as a lower-friction extension when the group wants more golf without more driving.
