Thorpeness Golf Club

This Suffolk gem is heathland in style, and though not long - measuring 6,432 from the tips - is a fantastic test. Visiting golfers will be charmed as the layout winds its way through silver birch and pine, gorse and heather, in a fashion reminiscent of the world-renowned courses at Sunningdale and Woodhall Spa. The sandy soil gives Thorpeness a superb links accent, while the course's quality has been recognised with the award of a number of regional, national and international tournaments.

The charming Suffolk landscape makes for a delightful setting, while on the course itself Braid has created a great variety of holes. Some of the best are the signature 3rd, where a good drive is the key to negotiating the sharp dog-leg right, the short 7th, where a poorly-struck iron will disturb the lilies that cruise the lake, and the terrific closing hole, which demands two great shots to find the green, under the watchful gaze of the famous windmill.

James Braid's famous creativity is extremely evident at Thorpeness, and his tremendous course makes this an educated choice for your next golf holiday.

It is crucial to avoid the bunkers at Thorpeness, which are built in the true links style with steep faces.

Accommodation at Thorpeness Hotel and Golf Club

Just ten minutes walk from the superb beach on Suffolk's famous coastline, the hotel prides itself on providing traditional hospitality for all those fortunate enough to visit. The thirty guest rooms are extremely comfortable, and all overlook either the Meare or the golf course. Old-fashioned values like personal, attentive service are married perfectly with modern comforts in the hotel, and the warm welcome will ensure that all visitors will be put at ease immediately upon arrival.

During the winter months, the golf course's sandy turf remains perfectly playable, while the open fires will be roaring in the lounge to greet the hardy golfer's return, emphasising perfectly the charm inherent in a Thorpeness golf break.

Hotel guests are welcome to rack up the balls for a few frames of snooker, or use the golf simulator, while the Meare and its surroundings offer a variety of pursuits: try rowing, tennis, boating, fishing, cycling or clay pigeon shooting.

Overlooking the 3rd tee, Thorpeness' restaurant is a sumptuous experience, where the ever-changing menu reflects the fresh and seasonal local produce.

The Patio Bar serves drinks and fine light snacks, including homemade Thorpeness fishcakes.

Very impressed with the rooms, shared with my son. Twin beds comfortable and room size larger than expected with writing desk and large sofa to relax and read or watch tv. The room seemed very modern and bathroom of a high quality. We ate in the bar rather than the restaurant (wanted to watch England v Spain), the staff were really friendly and helpful and our food was enjoyable and well presented. Service overall was good.

The course was in great condition...

My husband Alan and I thoroughly enjoyed our 3 day golfing break at Thorpeness Hotel & Golf Club...just what we needed!

The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful to make sure we were well looked after. As for the golf, well – the course was in great condition, not a bit of mud on our shoes or trousers after we played 18 holes; it was a pleasure to play on!

We will certainly contact Your Golf Travel when we decide to go on our next golfing holiday.
