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.

We had a lovely stay at Thorpeness Hotel with the golf - but we did think the evening meal menu was very limited. Added supplements for meat dishes, yes understandable sometimes on steaks, but also for the lamb which maybe was unnecessary. Their wasn't many meat dishes to choose from - Cajun Chicken is spicy, not everyone can eat spicy, so that left only burger or you had to pay. We had the Bear Battered fish & chips the first night, but the batter was so overcooked it was really crunchy and putting the knife in it, it just cracked off the plate. We did notice that loads of the the fish & chips were coming fast & furious, so that does show you that others were having the same problem. We would prefer to have had B & B as then we could have eaten out in many of the local pubs & restaurants, with much more varied menus. But overall value for money. Thorpeness Golf Hotel is always more expensive than others - not sure why, probably the location.

When we arrived we ordered breakfast and teas and coffees some breakfasts had come out before others had drinks, we had to ask for them. We pre ordered dinner which was fine but when the starters came out they had got us and another table mixed up so again half of us got food before the others. The sides were ordered and some cane out wrong as in chips instead of sweet potato chips. However I must say that the quality of food was exceptional and would happily eat here and stay here again! I would just say that the ordering system or the communication with the kitchen needs to be looked at. However this wouldn’t stop me going again!

I really enjoyed this course. A great test for a mid-high handicapper with lots of well-placed bunkers and with good, fast greens. Very pleasing to the eye from the tee box, with the fairways framed by the yellow gorse. After 4 months of walking my own (very wet) course in Kent it was a pleasure to walk along dry, springy fairways.

Yes very enjoyable but think they book too many on the course. Play was slow

We played as a two ball and took about 3 hours 15 minutes for each round. We were invited through by slower groups on several occasions and found other players to be courteous and friendly. The course was set up very well with an abundance of bunkers some of which I avoided. Sadly not all! The course requires a strategic approach, it's not overly long at 6,000 yards but course management is critical to score well. We were fortunate with the weather and saw the course and surrounding Vista at its best. The greens were slower than we were used to but they were very true and freewheeling staff are to be congratulated on presenting the course so well at this time of the year. We will definitively return in the future and found the two days to be really enjoyable. Thanks to Sam Greenslade for organising our break, he was very helpful and cannot speak highly enough of him and his customer service.

Great track, one that really gets you thinking! As with every course in the UK this summer, suffered a little on the fairways but you can see it growing back. Around the greens it's excellent and one of the few places you can putt confidently knowing you're getting true roll! A really well laid out test that provided a good challenge for our group. Sadly the weather got the better of us on the 2nd day and whilst the course stood up to it absolutely fine being sand based, less could be said for the wimps trying to play in it. Even with that in mind we'd 100% come back here again.
