Golf in Glasgow doesn't get any better than being out on the course at Balmore. Founded in 1907 on the grounds of Glenorchard Estate and designed by golf's first superstar Harry Vardon (winner of the British Open a record six times), our exceptional parkland golf course is set in a beautiful location with vast open spaces, mature trees and abundant wildlife.
Our 10-acre golf practice facility is one of the largest and best to be found at a Gollf Club in Scotland, boasting 2 short game greens (one of which is USGA specification) and a teeing area so that you can practice all facets of your golf game - or simply warm up before your match. We have now developed a 6 hole par-3 course within the practice area, ideal for all from novices to those needing to hone their short game.

Completed application forms can be e mailed (balmoresecretary@btconnect.com) or posted to our Secretary, Iain White (address on form).

Excellent golf course in excellent condition. If this was closer to my house I'd leave my current course for it. Par 66 but some long par 4s. Greens are different class. Give it a try you wont be disappointed. Thanks to course ambassador in pro shop.
