Services
Aberdour Golf Club is over 120 years old and was formed in 1896. Over a period of 5 years Jack Bald, a Club member of many years standing, diligently researched the history of the Club from 1896 to 1996 and authored the book "The First Hundred Years" to commemorate the Club's Centenary.

Our Honorary President, Ron Scott, has compiled a detailed history of the Golf Club based on extracts from this book and from the 20 years from 1996 to the present day.We hope the following will be of interest to members, visitors and those who enjoy the history and tradition of golf. In 1893 a local committee explored the creation of a Golf Club in Aberdour and locating an appropriate site.
When war broke out it was rumoured that most of the course may be required for agricultural purposes but it soon transpired that the military would be setting up defensive gun emplacements on the golf course in an area adjacent to the sea. As a result the club lost the use of 3 holes. Two huts were built beside the dogleg on the present 16th hole and which were to serve as a temporary Clubhouse for the duration of the war.
Established in 1896, Aberdour Golf Club is a well-maintained parkland course by the Firth of Forth, offering panoramic views of Inchcolm Island, Edinburgh and beyond. Ranging from 4,872 to 5,447 yards, the course itself is an enjoyable and fair test for golfers of all abilities, but sure to challenge you when you least expect it.
The flagpole is the best way to judge the wind direction but the prevailing wind is into from the right. If playing a normal flighted shot then the brave line is at the bunker to the right of the green and let the wind bring it back. An alternative is to play a running shot landing short right and letting the natural contours take the ball down onto the green.
Opening Hours are weather dependant and may vary, we advise you check with the bar before heading out for your round. Members of Aberdour Golf Club are eligible for reduced green fee rates at other Golf Clubs - view the list of clubs. While you're waiting on the golf season to come back around, why not sign up to some of our social events at the club?

Very very difficult to fault Aberdour golf club, from arrival everything was first class, the pro shop was well stocked, staff were very pleasant and extremely helpful. The gorgeous clubhouse was a joy, standard of service was first rate the views are to die for. Then you get to the course, the 1st and 2nd are par 3s from heavens own links, the other 16 holes are a joy to play, beautifully conditioned parkland course that will definitely be visited again very soon.

New owners are so lovely and food is better than ever. Really enjoyed our dinner there on Friday night, and once the haar lifted we had the most breathtaking view. Have also had their coffee, which was made to perfection. Highly recommend!

We had an amazing treat recently by visiting here for breakfast and it tasted fantastic! The toasted bloomer bread was a surprise as most other places we’ve been only serve thin sliced bread.
The coffee is… amazing and the service was excellent. We were welcomed with a friendly smile and the staff really went out of their way to look after us. Can’t wait to come back. 👍
Great views overlooking the beach and course.

We had just the best meal here last night - our first meal out and it was brilliant! Just really delicious food, with warm friendly service. Fish was super fresh. My mum really enjoyed the parmigiana- a super tasty gluten free option for her as she’s coeliac. And that view - tops it all off!
