pint of beer or cider from one of many breweries based
in East Lothian, or perhaps a ‘NB Gin’ or a dram of

With most of the golf clubs on Scotland’s Golf Coast
recognised as ‘Members’ Clubs’ it is a regular occurrence
for the departing golfer to remark on how welcome
they have been made at each stage of their visit and in
particular they comment on the warm reception received
both in the clubhouse and from club members happy to
pass on notes on the history of their club and tips of how
best to play the course.

The visitor’s parting remark is usually “I’ll be back”; so
“Haste ye back” to Scotland’s Golf Coast, where a warm
welcome awaits you all.
