The Best Golf Courses in Andwell, Hampshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Lovely tough course. In good condition, see photos. Lunch and dinner menus were very good. We found it expensive and renting a rake for the bunkers was a bit of a joke. Glad we played it, ticked off the list.

Super golf course. Struggles a bit Dec though Feb but the rest of the years it’s simply stunning

We have just held our mum’s 90th Birthday celebration at Bearwood Lakes and it was absolutely perfect in every way! Yes, it’s a beautiful location, the function rooms are extremely attractive and comfortable and the food is excellent, but what really makes the difference at Bearwood is their wonderfully helpful and friendly staff. The service and attention we received on the day was simply superb! Our contact throughout, from initial enquiry, planning the event and then overseeing the day itself was with Events Manager, Mandy Hurst, who could not have done any more to make sure our day was a great success. Nothing was too much trouble and we (and particularly the birthday girl) were made to feel so welcome that Mandy genuinely felt more like a friend who was part of our day than a member of staff! Thank you Mandy, to you and all the team for making it such a memorable day for our mum. You were simply fantastic and I hope Bearwood Lakes fully appreciates what a priceless asset you are!

Beautiful golf course laid out in fabulous grounds. Very spacious club house with pleasant staff offering a good variety of food and drink to members and visitors. Popular venue for corporate and wedding events.

This is a course that regularly gets plaudits from top 100 golf course lists, and it's easy to see why. The setting is scenic, it has all the practise facilities you could ask for, and the course itself is the star of the show. The greens had recently been treated, but didn't look too far away from being excellent again. The tees were good, and the fairways were just about holding up to the pressures of the summer heatwave we've been going through. There are lots of nicely shaped holes, and a good mix of short and long par 4's. It's also pretty friendly from the tee, so can be played by all levels of handicap. Add in the excellent clubhouse and friendly members (the ones I spoke to were anyway), and you've ticked all of the boxes. Highly recommended.

Excellent, well maintained course in beautiful Hampshire countryside. Lovely new clubhouse and friendly staff Would readily recommend and happily return

Nice, well maintained course with friendly welcome for visitors. Drains well, so recommended for winter/Spring in particular. Some challenging holes, particularly those hitting to elevated greens, often with good bunkering too. Some of the “newer” holes further from the clubhouse were less interesting - they are well established after several decades but lacked a bit of character. Nice terrace to catch some sun and watch balls trickle off the tricky final green.

Have used Alresford GC for many years with my society. The club house has recently been refurbished and is now an excellent venue and the food options are very reasonable and the staff are very attentive. The golf course we played in April 2023 was in excellent condition and the greens were unbelievable for this time of the year. If not played it’s highly recommended.

A great golf course. And a tough one too so not for the beginner. Hilly, chalky countryside means it's playable in winter/spring when many other course are not. Pro shop and bar/clubhouse are good standard. And you'll deserve a drink when you've finished a round!

Great day playing Hockley. Terrific welcome. Lovely food. Fantastic course.

It's a downland course, close to the M3. There are a reasonable variety of holes. It's not overly tough, but some of the greens undulations can be a challenge. It's quiet a hilly course, so if you're carrying, be prepared. The clubhouse staff are welcoming friendly. The food is OK. If you're in the area it's worth a visit.

A superb golf club, established over 100 years ago. Great greens, tricky lines in and a brilliant pro team to help get your game in top form. Highly recommended

You can see the GC is doing a lot of work on the golf course. Played in April 24 and found the course in great condition. The fairways neatly manicured, light rough and true greens. Bunkers were inconsistent, but there is a plan to refurbish all of them in the Autum of 2024.

Went for a business meeting. Nice room. Lots of space

Great golf club, excellent course, great staff.

Friendly knowledgeable staff. Good breakfast and lunch options. Golf is pretty good too. Makes you think about every shot very carefully.

A very pleasant parkland course, challenging without being impossibly difficult. Well worth a visit. Very difficult to find via Google maps!

Lovely course, greens in great condition

Fantastic golf course, real tester of a course, good tee box narrow fairways, very very good greens. If you are given the opportunity to play one of Hampshire's top 10 course.... Don't miss your chance.

Really good course. Very friendly place.

Very welcoming and friendly club - we booked a 2 ball at 1330 hrs slot on late January Saturday PM following a club roll up and managed to play 15 holes but were only asked to play for 9. For those keen to get some exercise this course offers a great work out although good situational awareness required when crossing fairways - some assistance is required for course navigation on back 9 although club members very willing to oblige! Will definitely return in the summer to enjoy this course in optimum condition. Great VFM.

This is a scenic and hilly 9 hole golf course that's well worth a visit. There are some stand out holes (the 3rd and 4th spring to mind), some gorgeous views, and everyone I met there was really friendly. There are a couple of climbs that will need to be navigated, but if you're okay with that then I think you'll really enjoy Alton. The greens were in great condition, and the tees and fairways were decent too.

Recently become a member after some really pleasant rounds there. Lovely course & the 18 they have done a good mix with what they have. Clubhouse very friendly. Sadly broke my leg weeks after joining, that being said they were incredibly supportive and responsive as well as flexible. It’s appreciated and look forward to being healed and back using the club.

I recently ran a Mental Health and Small Business - One Day Conference at Test Valley Golf Club and can't truly express how impressed I was with everything from the venue, to the catering, to the level of service. From the moment I enquired, Maria and Molly made me feel welcome and wanted to ensure they could accommodate as much as was feasible to create an event just as I had envisioned. The preparation and support provided was second to none. On the day, the food was excellent, the room was perfectly arranged and no dietary requirements or additional requests were too much trouble. They were so attentive and I can not wait to book our next event with them.

I have played here over the years and recently twice. The staff are all polite, friendly and helpful. I rely on them to pass on my compliments to the kitchen crew for excellent meals, and the greens staff for a well maintained course. Not the cheapest but certainly best value for money on a society day out.

This course is easily one of the best in Hampshire its playable all year round due to it having great drainage and being based on chalk. The greens are in prefect condition all year round, much needed development is happening and its making the course stunning to look at aswell as to play. The club is very welcoming and has a very mixed age group with great attention payed to younger players to get them into golf. I also got married at the club and every part of the day was so well organised and put together. Test valley really is a great club.

Good golf course, challenging yet forgiving if you manage the course. Beware the bunkers, lol. Golf buggies available. Book tee time on line and buggy. Discounts on buggies for medical reasons.

Beautiful course friendly people and great food

Great course and wonderful clubhouse.

Great staff and delicious food 😋 From spring through autumn, the course is fabulous, too.

Great friendly club and welcoming for Juniors. Good coaching with indoor facilities to tune up your game during the winter. Good bar and great food with a lovely terrace for summer drinks. A tricky course in great condition with a friendly welcome awaits any visitors. Highly recommended 5*

Great little golf course, well kept greens are lovely

A lovely little course in a beautiful setting

Lovely little course nestled away in the country. Quiet and peaceful with gorgeous, fast playing greens with some wide fairways with challenging protected Par 3s. Highly recommend.

Lovely Golf Course, friendly and help staff. Very well kept

We recently had our wedding day at Blacknest and could not have asked for a better day! A lot of that was down to the amazing staff they have there, and a very special mention to Vicky and Georgia who brought everything together! The team went above and beyond to make everything we asked for happen and nothing was too much trouble. The food was delicious and everyone enjoyed it! We cannot thank Vicky and the team enough for everything they did! Vicky was also brilliant at explaining how everything would work and made sure the day ran smoothly! Thank you again everyone, I wish we could do it all again! ❤️

Most stunning wedding venue around. Staff were amazing. Massive shout out to Vicky who helped me out as I was part of the bridal party. Everything was truly amazing. Rooms was clean and tidy. Food was brilliant and the location is stunning.

As a wedding photographer, I’ve had the pleasure of capturing several weddings at Blacknest Golf & Country Club, and it is truly a dream venue. The stunning countryside setting provides a beautiful backdrop for outdoor tipi ceremonies and portraits, while the modern interiors offer elegant space for bridal prep. The team is incredibly professional and attentive, ensuring every detail is perfect. Whether it’s the tipi, the picturesque greens, or the cozy clubhouse, every corner of Blacknest offers fantastic opportunities and I am excited to see its upcoming refurbishments in the near future!

Today we had a family lunch at Blacknest Golf and Country Club, which was exceptionally nice. The staff were professional and attentive, the food was extremely nice and certainly tasted superb. Given the circumstances of the golf course renovation a real hidden gem well worth a visit. Mike S
