I’d like to take this opportunity to thank all the members who’ve made the opening week at Powfoot such a success. However, there are a couple of points that I need to address-

1. At present only 2 players per group, family members are permitted to walk with a group provided all Social Distancing guidelines are followed.
2. Hand sanitiser is for everyone to use at the course please do not use it to fill your own containers.
3. BRS booking, if you can’t make your tee time please cancel the booking to allow others the chance to play.
4. Litter, as there are no on course bins please take all your rubbish home.
5. Members only at this time no visitors or guests.
6. You must reserve a tee time, you cannot just turn up to play. This is due to track and trace should anyone show signs of Covid 19.

Stay Safe

Welcome to one of the best golf courses anywhere to be found.

Set in breathtaking scenery in Dumfriesshire, South West Scotland, Powfoot Golf Course presents a mixture of both links and parkland golf of the highest standard.

Opened in 1903 and redesigned by the legendary James Braid in 1923, the course offers a superb test of golf with its many challenging holes which are set among whins and rough and has earned Powfoot the tag of ‘one of golf’s best kept secrets’.

Whether you’re a seasoned all-year golfer, regular society member or casual green fee player, Powfoot Golf Club offers friendly, relaxed hospitality to all.

A warm Scottish welcome awaits you in our clubhouse at either the beginning or at the end of the round.
