The Best Golf Courses in Bishop's Waltham, Hampshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Simply stunning! I've played a few in the top 100 and this is my favourite ever golf course. Front 9 in the valleys is just incredible, back 9 finishes off a glorious 18. Greens super quick with false fronts giving a very Augusta feel. Staff and members were all friendly and welcoming, can't recomend this place highly enough, in my opinion it should be in the top 10 in England!

Underrated in my opinion. Greens last summer were incridible, so fast and rolled so well. The Front 9 is set in 2 parallele valleys, Ive never seen anything like it, very unique. The back 9 while not in the valleys is just as good and is quite typical of other heathlands in the area. Preferred Hindhead to Woking, West Hill and Worplesdon. Members were very friendly and the scampi wrap for lunch was delicious!

Played Hindhead for the first time about 15 years ago, my memory was the front 9 through the valley was a really nice layout but the back 9 was disappointing ( flat and little definition ). Returned to play the course as a convenient meeting point with old colleagues. Course was in absolutely fantastic condition and really enjoyed both nines. Will certainly not leave it another 15 years to return !

First and foremost, Hindhead is a must play golf course. It's different in a brilliant way. The front nine is rather unique and quite frankly exceptional to experience and play. I've played nothing quite like it in the UK, in fact anywhere. It left be breathless in more ways than one at times :). The back nine isn't quite as dramatic, but once again, it's an excellent nine holes of golf. From the pro shop to the bar staff, the whole off course experience is a friendly and welcoming one. The Aliss Bar is a lovely touch and brought back some wonderful memories. The photos won't do the course justice, so if you're in the area, please go and experience it all for yourself. You will not be disappointed - an exceptional course with the staff to match.

Super golf course, hospitality, facilities - it’s got it all

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.

The best golf course that I have played in a long time, every thing about the place was 1st class. Very warm welcome on arrival which continue all day staff excellent. The courses was thoughtless . I didn't play all that well but was a pleasure to have played it and looking forward to returning and hopefully playing better.

Great game of golf here. Really enjoyed the course and the hospitality. If you get the chance come and play here. Some undulations and hidden traps but worth that for the variety and challenges of the course.

First time playing this course, and it was a pleasure very picturesque and the condition was great never played it before the changes so cannot compare the clubhouse is very nice food was great and the staff were excellent a bucket list course indeed

Great golf course, dry and in good condition even in winter. Only negatives are the proximity of the road and the need to cross it twice. Clubhouse bar has some great beers and the carvery lunch is very good.

Played in July as a visitor and quite simply Liphook is a top quality golf club in every department. You would be hard pressed to name many better courses which can be accessed by a ‘regular’ golfer. By that I mean without having to be invited by a member or having to pay way over the odds to play. So, while not the cheapest to play (booked via county card), pound for pound this has to be easily one of the best courses I have ever played. The condition of the course was impeccable and even playing late afternoon the greens ran fast and true. On top of that the members were welcoming, no doubt proud of their club; the clubhouse well managed with good food and the pro shop staff ( in particular Miles and Harry) friendly. Can’t wait to return!

Superb course, played it Jan 19th in 4 degree weather. Played of the whites and it’s a serious test of golf. Some very challenging long par fours but some very gettable par 5s. Great par 3s except perhaps 17 which does let the rest of them down slightly. Course was in great condition given rain and frost, can only imagine in peak times it would be utterly amazing. Would love to come back

Been a member here for a little while now, and so glad to be a part of the club! The course is absolutely stunning, even through the winter months. Everyone is very friendly, the facilities are great, and they are constantly investing money back in. It's not a massively long course, but still a very testing layout. Plenty of well placed bunkers, streams and forest to contend with. The greens, which are some of the best around, are very tricky, and you are rarely left with a straight putt. 5* for me so far!

This is a lovely place to play golf. Pro shop and clubhouse very welcoming and the catering good, plentiful and reasonably priced. The fairways are well covered and generous and the greens are very good, some borrows and slopes quite subtle, others not so subtle. Not overly long, the fairways are quite generous but there is plenty of woodland to assist in losing the ball. Most greens are well bunkered but the sand is good and consistent. We really enjoyed it. Dull day but that didn't detract.

One of the best courses I’ve played on in the area. It’s really well kept and looked after. Friendly members and well run bar. The course has 2 long par 4s, but present other challenges on the shorter holes so provides a good balance. If you play in the mornings and evenings you’ll often find deer wandering the course.

The best course I have played in the area infact best course in the South. The welcome from the staff makes you feel special as soon as you step through the door. The clubhouse has to be seen to be fully appreciated. Its like Chelsea chic comes to Wiltshire. The course is in superb condition and the work being put into it is clearly paying off. Would 100% recommend.

Good course. Tough to see greens and pins if you are new to the course but a good challenge. Greens were very good and overall well up kept. Staff at pro shop were amazing and very friendly bar staff

Brilliant Golf Course in superb condition, quite tight fairways, well looked after. Lovely greens with just the right amount of deception (depending on your point of view) Lovely clubhouse, friendly helpful staff and really nice food. Well recommended.🏌️‍♂️⛳☀️👍

Loved the idea of the crazy golf course , just too beat up after 18 to try it! Having just played a course close by which had all greens on temps, amazed at the quality of these greens even after torrential rain. There are some interesting holes and it's long but it's the greens and the breakfast which swing the 5 stars

Great golf course in lovely costal scenery. The clubhouse looks amazing and provides a super selection of food and drink. Hayling is a challenging links course and well worth travelling to play.

Superb Golf Course, great morning and lucky to tee off at 7.00am. A quality course that will test your accuracy and club selection, everything in/around the course is perfect, tees, greens, bunkers and tight lies on the fairways. Friendly welcome and a Superb clubhouse to finish the day

This is a proper links and a tough track. We were lucky enough to play it on a calm day and you still needed your driving game to be in good shape to make the fairways. Some great holes and no bad ones - unsure why Hayling doesn't rate higher in all those Top 50's etc. For my money it's the best links between Rye and Saunton in the South of England. Add to that a lovely clubhouse with great balcony views and friendly welcome with none of the stuffiness of some of the better known courses. Well worth a day trip from London and good value for money for the quality of golf and conditioning of the course.

This place goes straight into the top-10. A great track and a great club to boot. Superb routing, great conditioning, fair test and not easy when the wind blows. You can see why this place is rated in the same bracket as Rye GC (maybe better). Big thanks to Mark (Pro) and to Graham / the club for getting us on. The clubhouse is a JOY with a great restaurant to boot. It took me 20 years to get here, and I will be back within 3 months ... it IS that good.

II absolutely loved it, excellent value for money. Played two rounds while I was on holiday. The scenery is stunning, with wild horses running everywhere, beautiful. The staff were very friendly, and other than a few hoof prints on the greens, the courses are in good condition :-)

Loved it! Very friendly club with a great vibe. Course was fun, fantastic location and a great challenge. Clubhouse good food and drink. Will be back

Some great holes As with other courses where cattle roams, it is very wide open, the fairways are undefined and the greens a touch slow with the odd hoof mark. If that isn’t a deal breaker, this is a very enjoyable golf course. Clubhouse facilities more than adequate.

fabulous course well worth a visit very friendly and beautiful location.. stunning greens very well presented and not very hilly perfect day for my birthday will be back for sure

Fantastic golf course and facilities. Signed by a member last Friday, certainly aimed at the lower handicap golfer. I play off 11 and found it very challenging but really enjoyable

Visited here at the weekend, wow! Stunning course which is relatively hidden! I've never played on greens so fast and running so true. The course is very well looked after making it a challenge for all handicaps and types of players. The staff and members are all friendly too making you feel welcome. Would love to play here again and will try the course again in the autumn hopefully. Thanks for having me.

My Son treated me to a round at Stoneham for Father's day and I wasn't disappointed at all. It has to be one of the best courses I have ever played. Great variety of holes and some great birdie chances to be had on some of the shorter par 4's and 5's. The greens ran true and were in mint condition as was the rest of the course. The 18th was awesome with so much danger if you miss hit your ball and a brilliant final hole to end your round. Easily 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ from us and hopefully be back again this year for another game.

Just played in the Mixed Open, course was in superb condition, greens very receptive. Catering is also great, staff polite and professional, Lauren organised a great day. 👍 if I lived in Southampton I'd be a member.

When our original booking let us down this morning for our Grandmothers funeral wake today the great staff at Wellow Golf Club could not have been more inviting and accommodating at such short notice The food was good, plentiful and hot Thank you so much 🙏

Played 9 holes here with a friend a few weeks ago, absolutely loved the reception we were given, and the course. So much so that today I joined as a member.

Probably the best heathland golf course! Only Sunningdale or possibly The Red at the Berkshire comes close. Such an amazing setting for a golf course. Not one weak hole. Condition is always superb. Clubhouse is fantastic. If you are lucky enough to play it you wont be disappointed.

Was fortunate enough to play here in February this year but the course was undergoing some maintenance. Came back and the changes that they’ve made to the bunkers and the 10th hole have been superb. Probably one of the most underrated courses I’ve ever played, it’s simply heaven. It might not be the longest course, but if you are slightly off the fairway and into the Heather, you will pay the price.

One of the great course in the area. Had a great day here via golf pair. Course condition is spectacular, greens are on the fast side. I really like how the course is laid out. Heather and pine trees are everywhere, so not much room for error.
