Longniddry Golf Club is an 18-hole East Lothian course created in 1921 on land made available by the 11th Earl of Wemyss. Harry S. Colt designed the original 18 holes across approximately 150 acres, producing a course of about 6,369 yards after substantial tree clearing.
The opening was marked by a 36-hole four-ball featuring James Braid and Ted Ray against J. H. Taylor and Abe Mitchell before an estimated crowd of 4,000.
The course is an 18-hole parkland golf course. Designed by Harry Colt, the course originally opened in 1921. It is semi-private, welcoming both members and visitors. On-site facilities include Pro Shop, Clubhouse, Restaurant.
The 11th Earl of Wemyss invited Harry S. Colt to design an 18-hole course for the newly formed club. About 150 acres were made available and extensive tree clearing created a 6,369-yard layout.
Longniddry opened in 1921.
James Braid later altered the course. Further substantial changes followed, including work by Philip Mackenzie Ross and the removal of two holes beside the sea. Donald Steel was engaged in more recent decades to advise on architecture and bunkering, including the relocation of several original cross bunkers.
Longniddry has hosted amateur events including the Ladies Home Internationals. The club also records several members who represented Great Britain and Ireland in the Curtis Cup and Walker Cup.
The course now occupies about 106 acres and measures approximately 6,230 yards, retaining architectural elements from several major British course designers.
