Peebles Golf Club, overlooking the town and surrounded by the Borders hills, has developed into one of the best courses in the Borders and neighbouring Edinburgh region and with a modern club house it now boasts facilities to rival the best. The testing course, originally developed by Harry Colt, is just over 6,160 yards long, par 70 and features wide rolling fairways with some magnificent views along the Tweed valley. The course has a challenging start with the opening four holes played mainly into the prevailing wind, but is more generous from the fifth onwards.

The back nine has a more forgiving start but, from the fourteenth onwards, the closing five holes often prove very tricky.
