About this hotel
Golfers basing themselves at Cluaran House find themselves in a charming 1860s setting, just a short walk from the historic Bruntsfield Links. While not a full resort with its own course, its proximity to this iconic public course allows for casual rounds and a true sense of Edinburgh's golfing heritage. The house itself provides a comfortable, smoke-free environment with cosy rooms, perfect for unwinding after a day on the greens or exploring the city. Each morning, a cooked breakfast is served, setting a pleasant tone for the day ahead. The blend of period features and modern comforts, including free Wi-Fi, ensures a relaxing stay. It’s a base that offers the quietude of a residential area while keeping the city’s attractions, like Edinburgh Castle, within easy reach by taxi.

Our take
Cluaran House suits golfers who appreciate a characterful, historic base rather than a modern resort. It is ideal for couples or small groups prioritising a cosy, smoke-free environment and a hearty breakfast before heading out to Bruntsfield Links or exploring Edinburgh. Those seeking extensive on-site golf facilities, a spa, or a large, bustling hotel atmosphere should consider other options.
- Book your tee times at Bruntsfield Links well in advance, especially during peak summer months, as it's a popular public course.
- Utilise the free Wi-Fi to plan your daily golf and sightseeing itinerary, as the house offers a quiet space for planning.
- Consider a taxi for trips into central Edinburgh; it's a quick and convenient way to reach attractions like the Castle.
