About Linlithgow Golf Club

Linlithgow Golf Club is an 18-hole, par-70 course at Braehead in West Lothian. Its history begins in 1913, when Robert Simpson, then the professional at Carnoustie, laid out the original course. Four holes from Simpson's early layout survive in the present course.

A major stage in the club's development came in 1950 through its association with the MacKinnon family of Drambuie. Gena MacKinnon purchased Braehead Farm to protect the club's future and leased the land to the club, enabling expansion to 18 holes. The modern club welcomes visitors and provides membership and catering facilities.

The course is an 18-hole parkland golf course. Designed by Robert Simpson, the course originally opened in 1913. It is open to the public. On-site facilities include Clubhouse, Dining.
