Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club combines the character of a historic Scottish country estate with the convenience of a large four-star golf resort. Set within 1,000 acres of parkland on the western edge of Edinburgh, it offers two on-site courses, extensive leisure facilities and quick access to both the city and its international airport.

The hotel has 215 rooms and suites, with accommodation spread between the original baronial manor house and more contemporary sections of the resort. Many rooms overlook the gardens, woodland or fairways, while family rooms make Dalmahoy suitable for mixed golf and leisure breaks.

Golfers can choose between two contrasting 18-hole layouts. The Championship East Course was designed by James Braid and can stretch beyond 7,400 yards from its furthest tees. More commonly played at 6,684 yards, it remains a demanding parkland test requiring accurate driving and confident approach play.

The shorter West Course offers a more relaxed alternative, although its mixture of par threes, shorter par fours and several demanding longer holes still provides plenty of challenge. It can also be shortened to nine or 13 holes, making it useful for beginners or golfers with limited time. Practice facilities include a refurbished driving range and short-game areas.

The Pentland is the hotel’s signature restaurant, serving menus inspired by Scottish produce while overlooking the course and estate. The Brasserie provides a more informal option, with additional drinks and light meals available in the resort’s bars.

Leisure facilities include an indoor swimming pool, gym, sauna and steam room. Tennis courts and fitness classes provide further options away from the courses.

With central Edinburgh approximately seven miles away, guests can easily combine golf with sightseeing, restaurants and evenings in the city. Its airport location also makes Dalmahoy particularly convenient for groups flying from elsewhere in the UK.
