Gullane, a picturesque town in East Lothian on Scotland's east coast, is a haven for golf enthusiasts. The A198 winds its way through the scenic Luffness Golf Club, leading to the exclusive town of Gullane and its prestigious golf courses, Gullane No1, Gullane No2, and Gullane No3. In 2015, Gullane No1, a course that exudes exclusivity, hosted the Scottish Open, a testament to its world-class status.

For those seeking a golfing adventure steeped in history, Muirfield, the home of The Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers, awaits. Located on the border of Gullane, Muirfield is a part of the Open Championship rota and last hosted the Open Championship in 2013, a momentous event where Phil Mickelson emerged as the victor, etching his name in golfing history.

As you move towards North Berwick, you will pass by Archerfield Links and Renaissance Club, renowned for their world-class golf courses. The Renaissance Club will host the 2024 Genesis Scottish Open, where Rory McIlroy will defend his title.

Apart from the golf, Gullane also boasts a stunning beach named Gullane Bents, a popular spot for water sports such as windsurfing, kitesurfing or sunbathing in Scotland when the weather allows, it draws visitors and locals alike. It's an ideal family beach for relaxation and walks along the beach path to Gullane Point.
