The Best Golf Courses in Kimmeridge, Dorset, United Kingdom (2025)

what a great course and a great setting. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious all round a great day

Only ever use the pro shop here, always met with a smile and a very helpful gentleman.

We arrived just in time (sat nav having taken us to the wrong course!). Everyone we met was very welcoming and the course was in fantastic condition given the heavy rains in April. The starter and Marshall who made sure play was at a reasonable pace were very helpful and friendly. Greens were fast and true. The cost of the round reflected the quality of the course. Thank you

First class course in both condition and presentation. Helpful bar staff as we played late afternoon. Lots of attention to detail, would certainly return.

Specifically a review on the coaching and Pro Shop. Had lessons with Bailey Birch since the beginning of this year. Couldn’t have imagined such a big change in my swing and my enjoyment of the game since having lessons with him. Lessons in particular are very good. Lots of important information and always a positive outcome with a specific working point to work on inbetween lessons. This always led to a visible solid improvement without overloading me on too many issues with my swing at once. Couldn’t recommend him enough if considering lessons whether it’s a playing lesson, range session or in the simulator.

The course was in magnificent condition. Food in the bar was really nice (avo toast particularly!). All staff incredibly friendly and helpful. Would play again.

Played this lovely course, in lovely condition, with lovely people, on a lovely day !!! Thank you.

Great course in excellent condition. Quite hilly, so be prepared for the walk.

A fantastic warm welcome in the pro shop for a 5pm summer tee time. The course itself was being prepared for a club championship. I can only assume this is the reason for the extra long rough. This made it particularly challenging for someone who hasn’t played the course before and didn’t know the lines etc. Some good shots seemed unfairly punished. I would play again as the general condition of the course was good, not fantastic. Bunkers contained lots of stones and some greens were not in the best condition. I hope to play again and give 5 stars.

I played Knighton Heath today whilst visiting the South Coast on a family holiday. Having done a little investigation I chose Knighton as a cost effective alternative to some of the more famous and celebrated courses in the area, of which there are many. I played at 3.30pm on a twilight rate , £30. This deal is unreal value. Knighton is an absolute gem and could command a fee well over £100 in my opinion! Its beautifully kept, the layout is fantastic, the greens are in amazing condition and to cap it all I received a very warm welcome as a single visiting golfer to the club. One member joined me for the back 9 and he really added to my positive experience. I have been lucky enough to play some top courses in the UK and Europe and this is honestly one of the best I have played - easily in my top ten. I will definitely be heading back again soon. The hidden gem of the South Coast. Fabulous!!!

Welcoming staff and members. We were in attendance for an Inter County Junior golf competition. We are always given a warm welcome even though the event takes over the place for 3 days. Food is great too. Fresh well cooked and reasonable . Next time can we have better weather, it was the only let down 😜 but course handled everything that was thrown at it by mother nature. Brilliant effort by greenkeepers

Fantastic adventure golf. Love this. We had so much fun. We didn't play normal golf but the course looked good and everyone was friendly and helpful.

Great parking, restaurant, driving range and golf shop. Friendly staff. Good atmosphere. Can be very busy as its so well located with such great services

Not given the course a go yet but have to give a major shoutout to the pro shop and fitting studio they have on site, came in after a few uncertainties about my clubs. Within a few shots the pro Steve who had been monitoring me very quickly picked up the issues I had with my setup and as he brought up, nothing was wrong in the selection I had both head and shaft wise but all it required to get me striking it much more consistently was to set them up 1* flat which instantly made a change in the flight path of the ball and clearly wasn’t trying to push to replace them like many places I’ve been to have. Also gave much comforting guidance without the typical route some people reading the text book as any golfer is not going to swing or setup the same. All this service including the club adjustments came to a very respectful price, highly recommend them if you’re around this area looking to be fitted or simply after some good advice on your golf game or equipment.

I have played the course only twice and it is in great condition the course is very tricky at times but a good challenge. The pro shop is fully stocked with everything the golfer needs. Friendly staff and very helpful and welcoming. Thanks Harley. The food is excellent. Highly recommend ferdown forest for golf or to eat. Thank you to all the staff for all your good work. See you very soon Gary ☺️

Played here 7/3/23 : always drove past this place and never had chance to play. I managed get finished early on a job, rang clubhouse and someone answered straight away. I was concerned the course may be closed due to the rain overnight and in the morning but was informed the course was open. I welcomed to pop down anytime as most people had stayed home because of the weather. I arrived and went in the clubhouse and was very impressed. Well stocked shelves, plenty of staff working so was served straight away I teed off at 13:30ish, the round cost me £13.50. I was informed the course was having maintenance carried out on it, which was great so I was fully aware. I have to say I was impressed with this course. It’s definitely not the longest, but there are plenty of tricky hazards to make you really think about your yardages. It’s a great course to improve your iron play if you hit it long enough. I was really impressed with the greens. Although they had been hollow tined (spiked) the greens rolled really well, we’re in great condition. The fairways were in good condition despite the time of year, I was given a good quality winter rules mat to play off. Usually even if it’s a high end club your given a strip of artificial grass which curls up and is difficult to play off. This was on a solid piece of plastic with ground spikes All the ground maintenance team were friendly and polite, they could see which greens I was approaching so worked that around which greens they did I would definitely recommend this course and I look forward to coming back in the summer to see how well it looks with all the works going on

Very friendly clubhouse & Pro shop. Nice putting & chipping area, plus short practice area, irons only. Good array of holes, some challenging Tee-Shots if you feel brave...

Had a great day at WGC , very friendly staff and the course is fantastic. Our playing partners Dave and Mike were great hosts. Definitely recommend having a round even the weather was great for a change , none of the wet stuff and plenty of sun.

Lovely place and great people. They are allowing me to hold a monthly meeting of Ladies Who Latte there from January 2025.

Lovely golf club, super clubhouse, today the fairways and greens were about as good as you can get at this time of the year, very tight so if you are a bit wayward beware of the trees. I wasn't and paid the penalty. Ouch.

We always make a point of driving 2.5hrs to play this gem of a golf course every year. It is a fantastic golf course and in great condition, there are many challenges and so many stand out holes. The scenery is stunning , the staff are very friendly and we always enjoy a meal in the clubhouse with those views. Thanks again for a wonderful experience and we look forward to next year and many more to come.

Great course, amazing views, if the wind is up it plays really tough, be prepared to lose a lot of balls. Well worth a visit.

Stunning golf course that will test all your skills and abilities. Pick your tee box wisely. Played here in late July & was able to book a reasonably priced green fee on their website in the afternoon. First impressions in the pro-shop were excellent and that is because we met the manager (apologies I have forgotten your name) who chatted to use and helped us with sorting out an electric buggy and giving help on how to play the first holes to get us started. Wonderful way to start the round, thank you. Isle of Purbeck Golf Club has some stunning views on some great holes, so be prepared to get some amazing photos as you walk the course. If you are walking, be prepared as it is a big course to walk with ups & downs for all 18 holes. The reason for 4* is that we were held up by a 4 ball of tourists who really didn't know how to play at a decent pace or understand that they were holding up play & should have allowed us and another group to play through. There were no course marshals to manage the pace of play. This was quite frustrating. The course was dry and the greens were in good condition, we were lucky enough to play on a warm sunny afternoon, which obviously helped with the positive experience. There are plenty of interesting & different holes on this course. No experience of the clubhouse or the restaurant as we were late finishing our round & needed to leave as soon as we finished. Looking forward to returning.

Stunning place to play golf, the course is a decent challenge and has beautiful views where ever you are. Well appointed clubhouse and plenty of parking. Can’t wait to play it again.

Food was amazing. Had a lovely Sunday lunch here. There was a lot of us but they catered well and food was great. Lovely staff and will definitely come again.

This being my home club I’m maybe a bit biased ⛳️ after a very dry summer and no grass on the fairways we are now seeing the grass growing well. Green are all getting there make over and starting to recover well. we have a very well stocked pro shop and will soon have a golf simulator purpose built to improve your golf ⛳️ we have a full catering service and a very comfortable Club house.🥶 Winter has arrived but the course is holding out, cold and sunny winter golf ⛳️ roll on the spring. Still worth a visit on a nice day ⛳️🥶

Lovely course with greens and fairways in great condition. Welcoming staff. Very nice pro shop, bar and restaurant. My only criticism is of the green keeping staff who were cutting areas around the tee boxes who showed little consideration when teeing off. On one hole, the guy with the blower blew grass cuttings into me while I sat in a buggy prior to teeing off. I had bits of grass in my eyes and even into my mouth. I think they should be a little more mindful of the players. Other than that, I very much enjoyed my round in a club that had a friendly atmosphere. Great variety of holes, many with beautiful views. Very happy to play there again.

Arrived yesterday for the accommodation of my hen do! The rooms were clean and spacious. Staff was super friendly and on the ball! Particular mention to Richard in the club house! He was amazing and went out his way to arrange egg mayo sarnies for our incredible afternoon tea! He was so kind and just an all round lovely man! Also David (I think his name was) on the Friday evening looked after us so well in the bar. Pool and spa was so lovely! Clean changing rooms and good facilities with showers, lockers, hair dryers etc. thank you for giving us a brilliantly located space for us to base ourselves at. Only a 10 minute walk into town too! Would 100% to back! My only criticism (of any) was the room we were in only had power sockets in one corner so not able to charge phone by bed and had to dry hair in that area. Only small but doesn’t take away from this lovely gem!

Was shown around the facilities at The Club Meyrick Park with a plan of joining the gym! And fully intend to warm, welcoming and well established! Will be definitely looking to join once settled into the area!
