England Golf Courses by Area

Each area of England has its own distinct attractions.

North West England – This area covers the coastline of Lancashire and Merseyside in what is widely known as England’s Golf Coast.

This area contains the Open Championship Links at Royal Birkdale, Royal Lytham and Royal Liverpool; however there are many other excellent, but lesser known courses that are well worth playing whilst in the area, many of which are Open Championship qualifying venues.

Popular courses are:  Formby, St Anne’s Old Links, Southport and Ainsdale, Hillside, West Lancashire and Wallasey. There are over 20 highly recommended courses in the region.

South East England – This area contains some of the best Links Courses in the UK and is within easy reach of the London airports.

The Open Championship courses at Royal St. Georges, Royal Cinque Ports and Princes are all within 15 minutes of each other which Sandwich on the Kent Coast a very appealing base for the travelling golfer. Other excellent venues in this area include Littlestone and Lydd golf Club

London area – The most popular and well known courses within striking distance of the capital city are the parkland and Heathland courses at Wentworth, Sunningdale, The Berkshire and Walton Heath.

A little further afield and to the north of the city is The Grove and Woburn and to the south east is The London Club. There are no Links courses in this area

Central England – This area with Birmingham in the West Midlands and the central belt containing the East Midlands and north to Yorkshire contains some excellent inland courses and a few hidden gems, some of which are excellent Links.

The Belfry, which was the scene of many Ryder Cup matches, is in the West Midlands, together with the Forest of Arden and Little Aston, which are also top class inland courses in the area. The East Midlands & Yorkshire contain the excellent courses at Woodhall Spa, Fulford, Moortown and one of the best tests of Links golf in the UK at Ganton
