About
Welcome to Greenock Golf Club, Inverclyde's only 27-hole golf course. Founded in 1890, this prestigious club is located in a commanding position high above the town, providing golfers with breathtaking views of the River Clyde, Ben Lomond, and The Trossachs. The club boasts two parkland courses, designed by renowned architect James Braid, offering a unique challenge for golfers of all skill levels.
The main course, known locally as “the Big Course,” was redesigned by former Open Champion James Braid in 1924. Stretching over 5,850 yards, the course may not be the longest by modern standards, but it certainly presents a formidable test. With its tight fairways and small undulating greens, players will need to bring their A-game to navigate through this semi-moorland terrain. Tree-lined fairways, strategically placed burns, and bunkers add further challenges, ensuring an exciting round for every golfer.
For those looking for a more relaxed yet challenging experience, the club offers a 9-hole course known as the “Wee Course. ” This course intertwines with the Big Course, providing a variety of different challenges. Don't be fooled by its lack of Par 5s and bunkers; the Wee Course is a tough little gem that will both impress and challenge golfers in equal measure.
Greenock Golf Club is not only known for its exceptional courses but also for its friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Visitors and members alike have praised the club's staff for their warm hospitality, ensuring an enjoyable experience for all.
In addition to its fantastic golfing facilities, the club also offers various membership options, including ladies' membership promotions and winter membership offers. The club continually strives to enhance the experience for its members and visitors, recently adding two new electric buggies to its fleet, bringing the total to eight. The shift to electric buggies aligns with the club's commitment to sustainability and reducing its environmental impact.
