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

We played the course today, and what a treat it was. I work as a maintenance contractor for many prestigious Surrey golf courses and I have played some of the best courses in the UK. I just played Formby last week. I have to say the condition of the course was better than any higher ranking courses in the area. I was absolutely blown away by how true and firm the greens were. The fairways, tees and aprons. 5 * condition. The course manager and his team have a clear passion for what they do. Absolute class. Esp for the time of year and the amount of rain we have had recently. Even the heather was better maintained than neighbouring courses. The new holes and layout have been so well executed you would never know which ones they are, but they have made the course so much better. The rye grass walk ways are a thing of beauty as well. Nothing is wanting here. I’m not sure why the course hasn't got a higher ranking in the top 100?

I haven’t played all of them obviously, but I would say that this is one of the best courses I’ve experienced in England. Stunning greens and fairways like carpets, the course is well maintained by a team who know what good looks like and are passionate about golf. A real treat.

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

Fabulous course, in great condition for time of year, would recommend to anyone to play if you get the chance

Although it was winter season this course was in excellent condition. The club staff were superb. Very friendly and proud of their club and course. We will definitely visit again. If I lived here I'd be proud to be a member of Petersfield Golf Club.

A lovely course with high standard greens, tees and fairways. Staff are friendly and helpful. Great food upstairs that's very cheap. Would highly recommend playing there. There's a nice putting green which you can chip onto too. The 4th is lovely and if you're a accurate big hitter, it's worth going for the green.

A wonderful course ⛳️. Visited as a guest and was very pleasantly surprised. Both the tee-boxes and greens were immaculate. Some really good challenging holes, made more tricky by the fast pace of the greens. Had a great time on the corse and will definitely recommend. Only 4 stars as booking the time proved very challenging, as the phone was never answered, the clubhouse was shut when we finish at around 7pm, and the old boy in the club shop was rude and disrespectful, especially to a visitor who they should be trying to impress not belittle.

Lovely course in great condition. Played for the first time recently with 3 friends after Old Thorns (which was also lovely, but with some challenging holes). Shame spikes not allowed on the balcony!?

Very warm welcome from staff and a nice 9 hole course. Will definitely be returning for more games in the future..

Beautiful short course. Lovely views, easy parking, inexpensive, and a friendly bar offering very reasonably priced beer.

Brilliant place to go for lunch meet family out side plenty of spaced out seating.. View you can just sit relax enjoy a drink have lunch.. children are well catered for toys to play with for younger children or play golf for older teenagers Very enjoyable experience Thank you

A nice course ,some challenging holes ! Friendly staff

Hello,,, bank holiday Monday,,,, a spur of the moment 9 holes at Alton golf course,,, Very friendly welcome,,,,,,no stress what so ever,,👍 The course is a hidden gem,,,,,, very well maintained,,,,every feature you could have thought of is built into the 9 holes,,,nice little club house,,, Can’t wait too return,,,,,,, many thanks!!😎🏌🏾‍♂️

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.

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

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.

Great golf club, excellent course, great staff.

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

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.

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.

Nice course and not outrageously expensive. Greens are pretty consistent although some of the fairways are a bit lumpy and can give some random bounces. That's my excuse anyway.

Had a fantastic spa weekend at The Old Thorns Spa & Resort! The venue was absolutely lovely, with excellent spa facilities that made for a truly relaxing experience. The gym was impressively large—bigger than any other spa hotel I’ve visited before, which was a great bonus. The overall atmosphere was welcoming, and everything was well-maintained. I’ll definitely be coming back again! Highly recommend.

Had a lovely time at Old Thorns for a couples Spa weekend. The Spa itself is very clean and well run, and the facilities are also great from pools to the saunas and steam rooms. The hotel staff are great and the rooms are not bad, despite a bit of damp we noticed. Overall our experience was good, not rating a 5 as we found the Hotel food in the Kings Restaurant to be very bland, underwhelming and very few menu options, specifically dinner. Breakfast was pretty good. In saying that, do try out the sports bar and Oties, a lot more food options but not the cheapest.

Played this lovely course on February 5th....it was in super nick, unbelievably dry and firm under foot, greens running true and excellent tee boxes. Certainly a hidden gem in Hampshire and great value for money!!

2 great courses on chalk so DRY. Ladies behind the bar are great. Reception could learn something!!

me and my nephew played on Wednesday,,,,,, I only been playing 9 months,,,, Great up,,,,friendly staff on arrival, Course was tidy,the maintenance team were out redoing the bunkers,,, they green keepers were in and around most hole on the way out but communicated well so we can play through,,, Good mix of tech and the occasional long hole,,, We both really enjoyed it,,,😁 Will definitely return as the vibe was great,,,, Many thanks Weybrook park,,

Great little golf club. It was very wet the day I played (see pic) but once I was out in the course it was clear that the drainage was overly good as I hardly spotted a puddle and play was really good. Except in the bunkers of course, but they were redoing them anyway, probably for this exact reason. Anyway, great facility and will be back. Good selection of beers in the clubhouse and Lasagne was plentiful and spot on after a wettish round of play. Highly recommend 👍

We go at least twice a month if we can really good golf course few areas a challenged for me as I'm not the best but I can do the course . See or hear loads of pheasants as you go around with the lovely wild birds maybe see the odd fox or deer now and again .

A challenging, but we'll maintained course. Very busy even with early tee off times. Great little halfway house to restock on supplies. Some of the hole locations make putting a nightmare, be warned. The Range is cool, but not long enough to drive (unless you my mate Chris "Ladies Tees" Watt). Bunker, chip and putting practise area was well laid out.

Lovely course. Greens were in excellent condition and everything was very well looked after. Not too many hazards and no water, but in its place are some well placed tree lines, some sharp dog legs and challenging greens with some interesting undulations. Good little club house to have a drink after the game.

Was a Member here 2019 to 2022, loved it, Play a lot less now, but went back here for a round and the improvements are great, well done Worldham, it was good before but now it feels a level or 2 up, for a round in November, it’s was more than dry enough, the fairways are more defined now which we really liked. Gives it a feel of a better course. The greens are great. If you are thinking about playing here, do it! Great course and great value! I’ll be back more often now

Well Manicured course, challenging! A little oasis has to be seen ( played ) to believe it. Driving range, pro shop, lessons available, food and drinks available, buggy hire. Can be disrupted due to wet weather but course management and improvement programme in place and under repair

With a thirty year gap between my recent visit and the last I will be playing here much more regularly. Great pro shop, Restaurant and Bar

Great golf course and all in good condition. The clubhouse feels fairly new and the food was really good. Our society visited on the hottest day of the year so far, but the course still played well. They missed a trick there by not getting one of their buggies and taking cold drinks out to all who were playing as we were suffering with the heat.
