Course Information / Course Map

The most important aspect to consider when looking to play in the Southeast of England is that because of the volume of members' golfing traffic, weekend play is very difficult to arrange. The vast majority of clubs do not permit visiting golfers on either Saturdays, Sundays or public holidays. Having said this the Southeast of England boasts more 'top-100' rated courses than any other area of the British Isles bar none! From the Open Championship links of Royal St Georges & Princes to the legendary 'Burma Road' at Wentworth, not forgetting of course such famous names as Sunningdale, Walton Heath, The Berkshire and The Oxfordshire. The Southeast of England offers the complete package and as well as London there is Oxford, Winchester and Canterbury. So plenty else to do if your party includes some non-players. For those seeking to arrange corporate golf we can make reservations at several quality venues which specialise in this market. Lead in times for pre-booking vary considerably from club to club, but as always the earlier you make your request to us the more chance that we will be able to accommodate your desire.
