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

Fantastic 18 Hole Par three golf club. Designed by Sir Henry Cotton, I have been a member here for almost 20 years. It’s a fantastic challenge for low handicap golfers like myself but also my children who are keen golfers and looking to enjoy their golf in a relaxed environment. The terrace in the summer is fantastic for a drink, while watching players on the last hole. We also enjoy the pizza nights and other members events. As members my kids also have official English golf union handicaps, which is often required by other golf clubs when we play as visitors. I would highly recommend this family friendly relaxed golf club.

We had a birthday party at this venue, and Paul, Jodie, and all the staff were so engaging and friendly from the moment we stepped inside. After visiting a few venues where the service was stuffy and restrictive, Paul and the team were nothing but a pleasure to interact with at every step. Took the stress away from planning the event. The inside and outside is beautiful, and we would recommend the club to anyone planning an event. Thank you!

Lovely course. Well suited to beginners but also challenging for experienced golfers looking to develop short game. Greens in great condition for time of year. Friendly coach on site and nice clubhouse. Tee boxes were under repair when we went but winter mats were top notch.

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.

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 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.

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.

Great little course and you rarely play from a flat lie which will improve your game. Several par fours that are reachable in one for the bigger hitters but enough tricky holes to keep it interesting. No lush fairways as it’s a Forest course, but ‘pick and place’ all year round. I’d give the course a 7/10, but the clubhouse and the members a good 9/10. The affordability of a round and the wildlife make it well worth a visit.

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.

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

Course was immaculate, greens were true and quick. A real pleasure to play on. The gluten free food was outstanding. Would highly recommend.

Great course, tough but fair, strategically placed bunkers so you have to plot your way round, large greens, so wear your putting boots .

Fantastic golf course and clubhouse, we were made to feel very welcome, breakfast before the round was great, The starter of the course was very helpful and gave us a good heads up as we had never played the course before. The course was in fantastic condition, greens were quick but true. Well worth the money, would recommend and will be returning.

A really interesting course through the new forest with great greens and fairways. Manor Course. Pro shop is well equipped with a good selection of mens and womens attire. Really friendly staff who welcomed us. We will happily return ☺️

Lovely course. well kept. interesting holes. Very good value, decent food. And some honest person even handed in my lost Ray-Bans. Well Done Bramshaw !

A good round of golf! A semi challenging one for a beginner like myself. The course was very playable, especially seeing that there had been a shed load of rain a couple of days prior. The greens weren't the best, but this is totally understandable again due to the conditions in the days before. Staff were welcoming and friendly. Would definitely come back for another round, and hopefully a lower score!!

Great little golf course, par 69 with some very challenging holes. Tee boxes and fairways in great condition, the course was let down by the greens not being at the same standard. Would still visit again though.

In dry weather this is a great course. Well maintained with some challenging holes and several forgiving fairways. Some drainage issues in the winter but the facilities are good, the clubhouse, bar and restaurant are good and a driving range for warming up is a bonus.

5th April 2025 We ae a society which plays prior to our trip aboard, Chilworth was chosen as it was local, and the booking process was very easy, the information flow and details issued were perfect and left no stone un turned, All was arranged in January with an update sent out two weeks before, where payment was made, On the day, arrival was quick /easy and welcoming, we made our way the Charlies restaurant/Bar where we were greeted with tea/Coffee, and a full English breakfast, Tee time was 11.06 which was tee off on time, Golf course was in good condition although due to the unusual dry spring and lot faster and bouncy than usual, A great round was had by all and the rust of winter shook off, followed by the customary drinks in Charlies A great day where the hospitality was excellent, the food and drinking really good and the course was in the best condition it could be in, we will return again as it was a very easy process start to finish, Thanks to Mark and the team at Chilworth,

Thank you so much for a great time with the Easter fun day. Becky and adam dine a great job. My granddaughter had a wonderful time. Looking forward to next year.

We had our wedding reception here on Saturday. It was outstanding. We can’t compliment the staff enough. Elli, Becky, jack and Aarron you were amazing. Everything you did was perfect. Thank you for making our day so special.

30 Jun 22, Fantastic course, definitely be playing again there, easy to book, friendly and helpful staff, Was abit of wait on some holes due to 4 ball players taking so long but that's golf! A few challenging holes, greens in great condition. The fairways not so good some holes fairways dry & sun scorched. ⛳🏌‍♂️⛳🏌‍♂️⛳🏌‍♂️⛳🏌‍♂️

Very friendly staff. Child friendly as well. An amazing course. Quite tight on some of the fairways but gives a nice challenge. Really looking forward to coming back. Would love to film some content here too as it is one to be shown off.

Had a good experience on a work course here. Great selection of foods, staff kept an eye out for us wanting more hot drinks and were very receptive to any requests we had. Special shout out to the chef!

First time here, impressive golf course. Plenty of room if you want to open your shoulders, maybe as the summer arrives and the trees get into proper leaf and bloom it'll be a bit more restricted but for now great. Very deceptive for judgment of distance which is great ( but obviously annoying😁) and the greens were great as well. Definitely worth more visits. Well impressed with the halfway house catering. Lovely clubhouse and pro shop. Loved it.

A group of us (21) descended upon Rowlands Castle gc on the last day of our tour. We were all pleasantly surprised by the welcome we received from all staff and members alike. The course is an absolute gem, well maintained, and cherished by the members. How lucky they are to play this course on a regular basis. I/we will go back for more.

Very friendly helpful staff, and a great golf course to match
