Near the city of Bristol you can find some outstanding golf courses like The Kendelshire, Long Ashton and the monumental 7,600 yard Players Club. If you are basing your break around the New Forest in Hampshire then Brokenhurst Manor and Stoneham are a must play.
Woburn has hosted the British Masters on a number of occasions and is considered one of the best courses in England while the Harry Colt layouts in the Capability Brown landscaped gardens of Stoke Park are delightful on the eye.
