Always a pleasure to visit Berkhamstead GC as the staff are fantastic throughout. The course is a gem, however, the gorse and heather which is to this course what double greens, riveted bunkers and wind are to St Andrews ... have been hacked back and removed to a shocking degree. I wonder why this is? I personally don't think the course was that tough as to necessitate this to the extent it's been carried out. I'm assuming there is a very good reason for this as it's altered the character of the course radically in my opinion. I still love the course as much as ever, but I wonder how the the loss of so much gorse will impact upon nature ... mainly the bees, who let's face it, play a gargantuan role in the ecosystem. Let's hope it grows back!

Considering there are no bunkers this course continues to play tough. Miss the fairway and your playing out sideways or your lost in the bracken and ferns which are plentiful. Lovely club house and big car park. Careful as you cross the B roads that thread through the course as they are busy.

Arguably the best layout in Hertfordshire with the course to match. Running firm and fast through the summer Berkhamsted keeps you on your toes with no hole allowing you to rest on your laurels.

Fantastic golf course in excellent condition definitely worth a visit you will not be disappointed

The course layout is excellent, providing a challenging test especially for straight hitters. It's in superb condition with friendly clubhouse staff and a well-stocked pro shop. Ideal for events with up to 120 guests, offering plenty of food and drink options. Overall, a top-notch experience with attentive service.
