Uphall Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Uphall Golf Club began in 1895, when the golf course was erected on terrain leased from Sheriff Shairp, who lived on the neighboring Houston Estate. It's a convenient golf course to reach, sitting just seven miles west of the Edinburgh Airport, outside of Uphall Village. It is an 18-hole parkland course set amidst mature trees and features relatively flat land within somewhat tight boundaries, making for a test for all golfers.
Uphall Golf Club's course measures 5,588 yards at par 69. A round of golf kicks off on Mains, a par 4 that comes in at 404 yards from the medal tees. It makes for a challenging opening hole, especially when played into the west wind, requiring an accurate tee shot so as to stay clear of troubles on the left and right, and then golfers are just a medium-to-long iron from a slim green. The round concludes on Binnie Craig, a par-4, 383-yarder that offers an excellent closing hole, again when that west wind is blowing.
After the round, check out the Uphall Golf Club's clubhouse, where management assures that although you're at a "Members Club," you'll be "made extremely welcome."

Uphall golf club
Lots of renovation work going on but didn't spoil the golf. Only grumble for someone playing course for first time was it could do with more directions between green to next tee as no map on the card.
Starter was pleasant and made us feel very welcome and on course all other golfers were courteous and friendly.
Good course.
Good course and good deal, not a long course and a lovely welcome when we arrived.
Sunday fun
Really enjoyed playing this course with its mixture of technical challenges. Looking forward to seeing the new clubhouse opening this Autumn.
Really pleasant golf club and people!
We had a wonderful time here. The course is quite challenging and very well kept, with absolutely no flooding after some very heavy rain the previous couple of days. As a new golfer I was unsure of how patient the players would be, but everyone we encountered was very understanding and someone even took the time to give us some tips! The guy who welcomed us was very friendly and talked us through the layout and par of every hole. Overall it was a very pleasant experience. I couldn’t recommend it more!
Golf
A good course in great condition, however the first 3 holes share fairways with other holes so lots of balls flying around, not great.
Holes 4-14 are much better.
Clubhouse is still being built so no catering but should be great when new clubhouse opens in September
Golf coarse
Coarse was in very good condition even a water drink fountain on the 10th. Very friendly pro in the shop explained the lay out of the coarse.No clubhouse as it’s still being build but will go back when it’s finished as it looks fab
As the weather improves, the just keeps getting better and better!
I have played Uphall a number of times the last year, it held up exceptionally well through a very wet winter. Now the the weather seems to have turned a corner, it just gets better and better every time I visit. The weather was lovely and that reflected on the course which was in pristine condition. Staff are very friendly and the pace of play is very fair, allowing time to enjoy your game. 5 Stars without a doubt!!
A gem of a course
