The Best Golf Courses in Lewisham, Greater London, United Kingdom (2025)

I was really impressed with the amount of definition the green keepers were able to get into the fairways for the time of year. The course looked great. I had called the day before to enquire about getting a round and the Pro was very help and also honest enough to inform me that the greens had been freshly sanded that week so I should consider coming before making the trip. Undeterred I’m glad I did go as it was a real gem. Some really good looking holes and a challenging course. A lot of the tee boxes were temps but it still played really long especially with the wind up. I would certainly go back to play when the greens are at the best too, a really lovely club and course.

Lovely venue hall for holding a reception gathering or party. Parking, bar and friendly staff

Afternoon tea at langley park golf club was so lovely. We decided to go from seeing other reviews and glad we did. Good selection of sandwiches and patisseries and all very tasty. Amazing views too.

On behalf of Connie Reynolds: After having an excellent afternoon tea at Langley Park Golf Club I booked another to take a party of ladies from a group I belong to. The sandwiches and cakes were fresh and delicious. The service was good all in a beautiful setting. I would highly recommend it.

Associate Members of the golf club for a number of years and great place to go for a morning coffee, small meet up, family occasions, lunch and evening drinks and food. All staff and members are very welcoming and evening events great fun.

Attended a wedding reception, function room is a good size, staff polite and friendly, buffet food ok , outside grounds ie golf course looks nice,

I found Shirley Park to be a very friendly golf club. I joined recently and have been welcomed into one of the regular playing groups. The course is in great condition and is well kept. A great golfing experience for anyone.

Wow. Haven’t played many courses in the UK like this. Almost every hole could be their signature hole. Very undulating, various holes with plenty to think about in a stunning location with views over London. Lots of work ongoing but shows they invest and take the future of the club seriously. Worth the green fees!

One of the best golf courses, to play it is to be blessed

Always a top course and now moving towards greatness. A marvellous test of golf that is now showing some class. Tees all good most fairways very good and all greens superb and very challenging. Bunkers are proper top course quality, properly raked to give you a chance. Give it a bit more time to mature and it’ll be on a great number of golfers wish list. Btw great views of London too.

Lots of work being undertaken at the moment. An old hole has been found amongst the trees cut down. A site for a new clubhouse has been found and views to the city of London are beautiful. The foresight of the current owner seems to align perfectly with the original course architect. Large greens, wide fairways, a great test of golf. Don't let the par 69 fool you. This course can bite back as quick as look at you. Worth a try now, when it's completed, you won't be able to book a time or join as it will be full.

We had attended a funeral for our cousin and this was the venue for afterwards. The food was excellent and the staff were very efficient.

Enjoyable Sunday roast. Friendly and polite service. Atmosphere and decor a little bland but good food and drink. Good party venue with great views towards London.

Went for food and drink only. Prices were reasonable and food was great

Nice course in really good condition. Shame the pro didn't tell us about the past Capts comp & from the 13th tee would be closed. Luckily there were some friendly members who helped

Had my 80th birthday party my family and I had a lovely evening the staff were excellent.

Wow, what a lovely course and a great test of golf. On 1st August the whole course was in beautiful condition; tees, fairways and greens. Every hole offers a different challenge. Greens were the best I’ve played this year. As a 13 handicap I’d play it again tomorrow having felt I didn’t do it justice first time around. Visitor green fees with a member are very reasonable.

Attended for a Wake of a close relative. A lovely venue. However the entrance is a bit confusing as it's gated, it took a while to realise there's a line on the ground in front of the gates, and car needed to be near that to allow gates to open. Lovely views from the reception area across the 18th hole and out towards Sidcup/Welling. Nice clean facilities, friendly staff.

What a gem. Lovely little clubhouse with all the original oak finishings, and a recent revamp has also opened the woods-facing front to attract a bit of coffee and beer trade to earn a bit to keep prices down but really enhances the overall aspect. Mostly its an uncrowded little place where you can grab a pint or a sandwich and keep a locker. It is run on a shoestring and an amazing bargain, yet has real charm, has real antiquity (third oldest in the country) yet is entirely unpretentious. Wimbledon common is an ancient course accessed from either the London Scottish or the WimbledonCommon Club (Their tee 1 is the LSGF 10th). The course is not just parkland but serious woodland. Hit out of bounds and the ball disappears in bracken and under leaves. It is strangely quiet and peaceful, given its proximity to the A3 and Wimbledon traffic. A true haven and an interesting and challenging course with ravines to cross and narrows to manoeuvre. It is a public common however, and modern population pressures means that there are lots of dog walkers and strollers, and one has to wear a fire engine red top to warn of your presence playing. Most of the public are respectful or at least cautious, although some seem to revel in taking their own sweet time or picnic in the middle of a fairway. My first experience was a walker whose very wet dog was rolling over the 17th green causing big ruts as I aproached. The dog then ran up to snatch up my ball as I was putting and ran off with it in its teeth. The owner tossed the ball back from some distance with no apology. At least I got the chewed ball back. That was happily exceptional, most people are considerate although some seem inclined to post nasty reviews, and I am glad that did not deter me from what is a truly lovely bargain priced course. The big advantage of the London Scottish? They are backed by a large parking lot down a quiet lane which also serves the old windmill museum and a very decent snack bar, almost never a problem parking. From the “other side” seriously congested single lanes even just getting to the club house, nowhere to park and endless argie bargie when drivers don’t wish to give way. I am sure they are also lovely people at the Wimbledon Common Club, but I prefer to just park and go, besides the additional charm and welcome from the down to earth Scotts. For the price, so close to central London, London Scottish is to me as good as it gets.

Amazing fun , warm and friendly members and club staff and good value. There is a very woodland feel to this course and some tight holes making this an impressive place , greens are good. Just watch out for the odd ignorant dog owner .

Second round etc… another rain started day followed by lovely sun… lovely tree foliage… Day started cold and cloudy - then the sun came out and it was lovely. Very nice course even when walking the hills. Great views if not such a great round..

A golf course with a royal status. Wasn't the longest or the most challenging course that I played so far, but it very well maintained. Has a classic club house that server fantastic food. Probably give higher recommend to the restaurant than the course.😅 It's a been there done that course, as it's not easily accessible. (Private course)

Very interesting and challenging course. A stone’s throw from Eltham Palace. Pro shop manager was very friendly and accommodating. Clubhouse was beautiful, and had a fascinating history. I even got a private tour by the facilities director, which included an incredible golf memorabilia museum! I ate in the bar area and enjoyed delicious food and friendly service. Pick up the book on the history of the club, one of the oldest in England.

It's nice to treat yourself to the elegant and stately surroundings for Sunday Lunch. I did feel, however, that it wasn't as good the first time round. The actual roast beef lunch seemed if was of the pre prepared variety that most pub restaurants do. The beef was passable but may have been not freshly carved. The accompanying vegetables were nothing of note. I hope I'm wrong as it's a good venue to eat, albeit a tad on the pricey side, but that's to be expected.

I had a lovely morning playing The Prince’s course this morning at Richmond Park Golf Course. The staff was very friendly and I was able to hire some clubs. The clubs were a bit old and beat up but I guess that’s to be expected with a public course. They still played fine. The course itself is beautiful with lots of birds and foxes on the course. I landed my ball on the green with a nice pitch shot and this fox darted out of the bushes and tried to steal my ball haha. It was quite comical and a unique experience. Keep an eye out for those sly foxes. Also, bring extra balls because you will lose a bunch unless you have great aim. The rough is extremely thick and dense. While I lost lots a few balls I also found a few so it evened out. Overall a fun course close to London. I’d definitely go back.

Excited about playing a course that I’ve not played in 15 years. The course layout is good, very flat and straight, however bunkers are very well placed and the fairways are mostly undulating so shot selection is key. Course is okish, could be better, however greens are true can be attacked very well. The rough needs work as when a ball lands in it it’s very tough to find them. Staff are very friendly and there is a good beer selection!

We played at Duke’s course. Enjoyable course with rental clubs available. Tips: Better bring own clubs. And a lot ~~~s of balls ~~ 😬

Had a lovely scramble with a good friend on this 18 hole course after hitting the driving range. I’m a complete beginner so I was happy to hit a few straight shots! Driving range is decent and has targets etc Cafe is reasonably priced and lots of seating area Recommend sun cream for hot days! The refill station at hole 9 was welcome, and the price of stuff in vending machines is cheap for chocolates etc

i loove this course but the dog walkers do my absolute head in. I have had dogs come and knick my balls and the people who walk them dont care at all or have them on leads. But other than that chingers is a good fun course.

Not the most forgiving course, but really well maintained and great value for money. Also easily accessible on the overground line

I went with the kids there,we spend 10£ per 10 token,each ride was 3 tokens so we finish up to 50£ haha...it was fun for them,a lot of working cars,plane and fun house.We eating there as well...so it was a nice time spend togheter!
