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

Great driving range with range tracking equipment. Really great to see your progress...or otherwise!

Luke and Fern are two of the best professionals I know, being a PGA professional myself I would trust Luke and Fern with any aspect of my golf and urge people to utilise either of these fantastic pros to help them with there golfing journey!

Great course, driving range was very nice. Staff were friendly and price is very good at £6 a round.

Decent little golf course! Well kept and a great chipping practice green. Polite and helpful staff at the shop. Definitely visit again

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

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.

Tricky little golf course, plays 18, designed around a 9 hole. No par 5's but lots of par 4's (and long ones). T Boxes were difficult to get T pegs into the ground. Lovely and flat course. Such a pretty course to play. Very enjoyable. This was the first time in 20 years of my golfing experiences (and I have played many courses)...that I have ever seen steps into a bunker !! Luckily I didn't have to use them 🙃

What a little gem of a golf course! We visited on a lovely day and I had a lesson with Charlie, who was an excellent teacher, and made me feel at ease. The course has a family atmosphere to it, not intimidating like other places. The little cafe has a beautiful setting and a nice selection of dishes. Shame you're an hour away from is, hopefully we can visit soon!

Lovely 9 holes of golf. Easy to book via website we were advised pro shop would be shut that day and to check in at clubhouse. Warm welcome on arrival and purchased range tokens and rental trollies. Other players/members chatty and welcoming, and nice round. Uncle hadn’t played for about 10 years so nice course for him to get his swing back. Wasn’t rushed about on the course. nice course and very welcoming. Highly recommended for a peaceful round of golf at a fair price.

Friendly relaxed golf club and great for kids to learn.

Unbelievable golf course. Classic course with heather and pines,slick greens and in top condition. Customer service top notch, steeped in tradition with a long history but welcoming in every possible way.Proud of their club and wanting to show it off to visitors.

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

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

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

This is a super golf club, brilliant golf when the weather's nice, my golf today not so good!!!🤔 clubhouse and staff lovely, (Gem real ale not bad either 🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️👍👍) Cod and Chips signature dish in the clubhouse, well known for it locally. Views today wonderful, even though it was a little chilly

Beautiful course, nice golfing challenge with stunning coastal views. Lunch in the clubhouse afterwards was excellent as well. Highly recommend.

Lovely course with great views. Greens were very tricky, but they had been lightly sanded, so very tricky to get pace right. Very friendly welcome. Food is very good.

Lovely course , stunning location and friendly people, greens were fast!

We played a Dorset past captains match versus Hampshire past captains ⛳️ The course was in excellent condition very well manicured, the greens were very fast and true. The catering was also good and all the staff were very friendly. The club captain was in our first group out and he set a high standard with his course knowledge,well played Rob ⛳️ if you are in the area I would recommend a visit for a good challenging game and the bar is just the job on a hot day sitting on the patio 🏖️ or just pop in for a bit to eat and a drink🍹

We try to play a different course each week. This was delightful to play !! Beautiful tree-lined fairways...very narrow in places...lots of par 4's and 5 in the 1st 9. Many undulations, sloping fairways, hills, and doglegs left and right gets you golf fit pushing your cart. Tricky approaches coming in to some "fast & foxy" greens. This 18 hole course has a great layout. Extremely friendly members and staff. The facilities are modern and inviting. We will definitely be back as it was only 20 min from home. What a find. ⛳😁🏌️‍♀️

Had a great day out at Bulbury today. The course is tight in places and very unforgiving if you stray off the fairway. It was in excellent condition. The staff made you feel very welcome and were very friendly.

Best course I've played at in Dorset. The condition was excellent. The clubhouse is relaxed with great views. Some really memorable and challenging holes, but fair test of golf.

Brilliant course brilliant staff , Absolutely great experience the course is immaculate full credit to green staff and management for what is truly a tip top course , there are normally one or two holes on a course that you think to yourself are a little weak or don’t quite fit right , but not here everyone of the holes are beauty’s get there for a game if you can , played on Monday the 25th of July .

Wonderful golf course in exceptional condition. Played on a sunny Sunday afternoon and felt like only ones on the course! Very friendly welcome from staff and we were well looked after. Thanks very much!

Great course in another 10 years will be even better. Nice clubhouse as well. Some very special holes and a good test

Course is in great condition ,fairways are good and greens are well looked after. The clubhouse serves some great food and has good beers on tap. The pro shop has some good stock and plenty of items. Staff are really friendly and helpful.

We had originally planned to meet at a pub just down the Road, but it was closed . Another person in the car park recommended the golf club and we weren't disappointed. The menu was limited but sufficient. We were made very welcome by the person serving. The food was freshly prepared and jolly good, the others had a pudding which was also reported to be very good. We will be sure to visit again

Well well what can I say about Ashley wood the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow its the first time I've played here and probably the best course in Dorset that doesn't require a handicap to attend. Had a quick bite before we started pleasantly surprised booked a buggy as I knew slope index would be high and man in pro shop matched the hot deal price as it's cheaper so value for money was great. Didn't get my best score but got a few pars thanks to the tattooed golf coach Harry shaws lessons at parley and the views here at blandford were picturesque and course is well looked after and we play quick with the buggy and slower group in front let us through pretty quick which was great only wished I lived closer to the course as I'd loved to be a member here but we'll worth the 45 minute drive so we'll be visiting again very soon.

Best Sunday roast by far. Excellent food and great value.

First visit, very impressed with the facilities, loved the 6th hole and the course location on the coast. The stunning weather enhanced our experience. The only negative is the risk to the general public/walkers.

Fantastic course in lovely condition, great fun playing in the wind and spectacular views at almost every hole

Our first ever round at BWDGC, and I have to say that the course was fantastic. Spectacular views, some outstanding holes, especially the 6th, and it was in great condition. A very warm welcome from the staff on arrival and everybody could not have been friendlier. Everyone we spoke to during the day, including other golfers, made our visit most memorable. I would definitely recommend a trip to all golfers, and I hope to visit again someday.

Played it in early Oct., course was brilliant, ocean view on several of the holes, rolling hills, sheep & livestock in the backdrop. Course didn't really look that hard, but with the wind it sure did play that way. Lots of deep rough to avoid, a few stone walls to avoid, greens were in good condition. Will definitely want to play again when back over next year. Worth the trip.

Weird experience of playing same greens twice (but from different tees), but at least you know what to expect 2nd time around! Surprised to find the fairways and greens played well despite all the rain we've had, so kudos to ground staff. Clubhouse and staff are very welcoming and food is very good. Changing facilities are also good (much improved recently).

Had a great winter round of golf at Folke Golf Course today. Even though its been raining a lot it was pretty good under foot. Course was in great condition, greens smooth, even and true. Fairways generous, course challenging enough to make for a good round. Staff are really nice and very welcoming.

Lovely golf club. My father, brother and I used to play here a lot 15-20-odd years ago when we lived nearby. We played here again today for old-time-sake and the place still has that lovely local friendly atmosphere / owner. Great course for the money, greens were good for the time of year. Really well-priced clubhouse restaurant; good quality sandwiches at a great price! Was nice to play here again.

Superb course and really worth a visit. Staff all very helpful and friendly.
