What Visitors Should Check Before Playing at Edzell Golf Club

Updated

Before you book a round at Edzell Golf Club, check three things on edzellgolfclub.com: the Visitor Rates page for the current green fee, the BRS Tee Booking system for available times, and the Fixtures and Open Competitions listings to make sure the course isn't tied up by a club event on your preferred date. The site also publishes a Pace of Play Policy and direct contact details, so you can confirm anything that isn't stated online before travelling.

Start with the visitor rates page

The site's navigation includes a dedicated Visitor Rates link under the Golf section. That is the page to use for pricing, rather than relying on the homepage or general membership pages.

The published site material does not list specific green fee amounts, so treat any figure you see elsewhere as unconfirmed until you check the Visitor Rates page directly. If the page doesn't answer your question — for example, about twilight rates, junior or guest pricing, or whether a particular rate applies on weekends — use the contact details at the bottom of the site rather than guessing.

Book through BRS Tee Booking

Tee times are handled through BRS Tee Booking, which appears twice in the site navigation. This is the club's booking route for visitors as well as members, and it is where you should look for actual availability on a given date.

A practical sequence:

  1. Open the BRS Tee Booking link from the site navigation.
  2. Select your date and see which slots are open.
  3. Check the Visitor Rates page for the price that applies to your slot before confirming.
  4. Keep your booking confirmation — you may be asked for it on arrival.

If the booking system shows no availability, that usually means the date is full or blocked by a fixture, not that visitor play is closed. Check the fixtures list before assuming the course is unavailable.

Check fixtures and open competitions first

Two parts of the site affect whether casual visitor play is possible on a given day:

  • Fixtures — the club's scheduled competitions and matches. Course access for visitors can be limited on these dates.
  • Open Competitions — events that are open to entries from outside the club. If you want to play in a competitive format rather than a casual round, these are worth checking before you book a standard tee time, since entry may follow a different process.

The site also lists Championships and Match Play pages. These are club competition structures rather than visitor booking information, but they help explain why certain dates may be busy.

Know the pace of play policy

Edzell publishes a Pace of Play Policy under the Golf section. Read it before your round if you are visiting for the first time, playing in a larger group, or booking a tee time close to another fixture. It sets out the club's expectations for how quickly groups should move, which matters on a busy day and helps you avoid being asked to speed up or stand aside.

Other facilities worth knowing about

The site lists a Trackman Driving Range, which is useful if you want to warm up before your round, and a Course Flyover and Scorecard/Slope Ratings page if you want to study the layout or check the course rating before you play. A Webcam is also linked, which can give you a sense of current conditions.

For weather, the site points to BBC Weather and shows a Course Status item, so check both on the morning of your round in case of closures.

Contact the club to confirm

The site provides these contact details:

Detail Information
Address Edzell Golf Club, High Street, Edzell DD9 7TF
Phone 01356 647283
Email [email protected]

Use these if you need to confirm something the website doesn't state clearly — for example, visitor restrictions on a fixture day, dress code, or whether a specific rate applies to your booking. There is also a Contact form and a Professional Shop page if your question is about equipment or coaching rather than tee times.

A quick pre-visit checklist

  • Confirm the green fee on the Visitor Rates page.
  • Book your slot through BRS Tee Booking.
  • Cross-check the date against Fixtures and Open Competitions.
  • Read the Pace of Play Policy.
  • Check Course Status and the weather link on the day.
  • Call or email the secretary if anything is unclear.

Working through these in order means you arrive with a confirmed time, a known price, and no surprise that the course is hosting an event.
