The Best Golf Courses in Shirley, West Midlands, United Kingdom (2025)

This place is so sick. I'd recommend for dates, hangouts with friends and even work dos if your boss has a good sense of humour. The music choice is cool, and the cocktails are awesome. They come with creative garnishes like rubber ducks and tiny water guns so you can aim at your mates.

Absolutely brilliant, we had a lot of fun here and didn’t feel rushed around the course. Staff walk around occasionally offering drinks too which was lovely, although we didn’t have one this time. Such an interesting course too, perfect for a date night. It is a short course so wouldn’t say it takes the recommended 60-90 minutes unless you are in a big group or have one in front of you.

One of the best places in Bham for activities because of its design and especially for the cool cocktails. Also, good price for how good it is. 👌

I came here with my girlfriend on a date night, it was so much fun. The young lad who took out drinks orders throughout our visit was very professional and friendly, the cocktails were nice as were fries coated in nacho cheese 😋. The golf holes were different from each other with some interesting quirks, such as shooting the ball up a ramp to try to get it into a urinal, or knocking the ball past 3 rubber male appendages (i especially found that funny), each one felt unique and fun. The graffiti motif throughout done with neon paint gave a good touch. Definitely recommend.

Super course very helpful staff from booking to playing to a beer after. Can't wait to play here again in the summer. Considering the weather we have had course in good nick. Greens were very good but come on golfers repair your pitch marks. Bar staff top notch. Many thanks Copt Heath.

Wow what a brilliant golf course even at this time if year. The clubhouse is very welcoming and I would rate the course better than Hollinwell in Nottingham. Not cheap but what price for quality

Stunning golf course in lovely condition. The course is well laid out and will give your game a very robust challenge. Greens in lovely condition. Exceptionally decent clubhouse with friendly helpful staff and great food. Just a wonderful place for a round of golf

Excellent course with quality greens that are very well protected by many bunkers. We visited for the first time in late August and were made very welcome in the Professional shop with everything explained in detail. Followed up with some lovely food & beers in the 19th, again served by very friendly and helpful staff .. Highly recommended Golf Club, we will be returning .

Visited the driving range after ages yesterday, as always, clean environment and friendly staff. Gave Top Tracer a go for the first time and was well impressed. May have to return to playing regularly!

Great adventure golf, really well built and beautifully maintained. The staff are really friendly and it’s a great way to spend a couple of hours with your family. The golf range is just as good, along with the lovely café area and well stocked shop. All in all, a great place, would definitely recommend.

Excellent driving range with a fun and jam packed crazy golf area for both adults and kids!! Great pub with a lovely atmosphere and an excellent shop selection. Staff were all super friendly with excellent etiquette, very polite and attentive to our needs. Thanks for a great day Four Ashes ⭐️

The recent introduction of technology to track your shots and so allows you to play courses from around the world is a game changer. Makes the whole driving range experience so much better. You can of course simply use it to see how you are hitting your balls but that gets boring after a while. Playing St.Andrews is much more fun. £10 for 100 balls.

Visited as a party of 12. Excellent golf course in superb condition. Steve Carter the professional made the booking process easy and was very welcoming on the day. The food and catering staff were top notch. We would all come back to Walmley without hesitation.

Walmley is an absolutely top class Golf course. The welcome from the club professional was very friendly and informative. The course is a good test of golf and the condition, as always, was fantastic! In my opinion, it's one of the best maintained golf courses in the West Midlands. The greens staff were working on the bunkers and cutting the rough. The attention to detail on the course is a credit to them. Ots just a shame my game wasn't as high class as the surroundings. If you're looking for a game, or to join a club, I'd definitely recommend Walmley.

Exceptionally kept course by a very hard working green team. Great clubhouse after a full high end refurb and lovely staff. Strongly recommend as a member or guest

Great parkland course, greens quite fast, nicely manicured. Clubhouse has had plenty of money spent on it, and it shows. Great visitor changing and shower facilities, bar area very comfortable with a balcony overlooking the 18th and the rest of the course. Great signature hole over water at the 5th. Staff accommodating and welcoming.

I dare anyone to find a better value course than Sandwell Park golf club. From the play out, to the carpet like fairways, the tree lined fairways and the friendly staff/members. Just a lovely lovely parkland course hidden away from suburbia.

Very friendly staff. Great course with interesting challenging holes, and the best greens I have played on in UK. The catering staff and food was also top notch. A hidden Midlands gem. Well done Sandwell, we will be back.

Had a fantastic visit to Sandwell Park over the bank holiday. One of the friendliest welcomes received by staff and members from the pro shop, the catering and members checking in that we had a good round. Highly recommended. Having not played the course for probably 15/18 years the layout remains absolutely brilliant. Some lovely tight, tree lined tee shots and tee shots where you could hit long iron through to driver, decisions to be made. Some absolutely lovely looking Par 3’s all very different. Some elevated tee shots including a Par 5 which is always a treat. Fantastic layout and really varied off the tee and into the greens. Greens were brilliant and a real test, you’ll need to be sharp with you 5/6 footers and two putts are certainly not a given around there from longer range. A solid test of all the golf shots especially around and even more so on the greens. But a layout that is really strong. But more than anything else it the people were really sound and I’d recommend a trip on this even more than the course and that’s saying something. A lovely welcome into the clubhouse and great portions for a great price of really decent food too. Definitely worth stopping for a quick bite and a drink. Shout out to the bit of cake with the coffee too, perfect for a sweet tooth like myself. I’m sure I remember the edging around the bunkers and the paths etc being a little better years ago that would be my only criticism. It’s not bad, but this place deserves perfection really. But don’t let that out you off bunkers played really well. Highly recommend.

Fabulous golf course in excellent condition. Very friendly and helpful staff made our society feel welcome. Come and play this course. You'll not be disappointed.

Beautiful well maintained course, a bit more expensive than most but you can see why. If you're happy to play out of peak hours you can still get a round in for £30-35. I haven't yet had the chance to visit the clubhouse, but from what I hear it's pretty good too

Played in your Senior open yesterday. Course fabulous, staff engaging, food excellent Facilities spot on. Very well ran competition. Definitely be back Simon. Bristol

Great golf course with plenty of picturesque and challenging holes. Excellent clubhouse with both indoor and outdoor seating

Well maintained 9 hole golf course. Great for beginners and decent price.

Really good course, walkable if you decide to play 18 (9 holes x2). Well kept

Really nice club! Course is great front 9 slightly hilly and the back 9 pretty flat. Greens are lovely and walking between holes is super close by. Tee boxes are well kept and fairways are neat! Great course. Great clubhouse! Loved playing here in the county comp yesterday. Staff are great and the driving range is beautiful!

If you want to play on some of the purest, quickest and truest greens, this course is for you.

Went for 80th birthday party. Really nice venue. All the staff (who were all quite young) were so helpful and pleasant. Really made you feel welcome. The food - buffet style - was really nicely done, beef, salmon and roast ham. Nice atmosphere really enjoyed it.

Lovely course, we were well looked after. Well worth a visit. Greens were lovely in fact the whole course was in lovely condition. Definitely going back.

Top notch course, beautifully kept, immaculate fast greens with a very interesting layout. A small burn comes into play on a number of holes , sometimes in driving range. Food as ever is excellent, as a society we have visited 4 times and will continue to keep returning as they always make us feel welcome , a proper members club.

What a fantastic place, the course is pristine, the greens are lightening quick, great practice facilities and the club house is really nicely laid out and welcoming. The members greet you and make you feel welcome. This was my first time there, but I will be returning again soon. If you have not been to Ladbrook park, put it at the top of your list of ones to play. You will not be disappointed.

What a lovely place the course was in superb condition. Then after, the food was really spot on. All the staff were very friendly and polite. Would recommend a visit.

Excellent course, very social crowd in the 19th.

Played as a visitor with a group from Lilleshall Hall. Wonderful day despite the rain - course is beautifully designed and maintained. Made very welcome by staff. Thoroughly recommend playing there.

Myself and my wife played at Fulford Heath on Friday 7th July and we were very kindly given a courtesy round, by Paul Aitkens the Club Manager, due to our course hosting the Midland Youth Championships all week as it has done for the last 37 years!! The welcome we received was from everyone at Fulford Heath was warm and friendly and the course itself was in excellent all round condition and a very good test of golf. The greens were immaculate, very quick and true and a real pleasure to putt on. We had lunch before we played which was lovely and the pint on the patio after the round was very welcome indeed. The members we came across were extremely friendly and genuinely pleased to have us there which was nice. We even had a laugh and a joke with the fourball who had played behind us. Such nice people!! Overall we had a fabulous day on a superb course and receieved such a lovely welcome from everybody at Fulford Heath 🙂!! If you haven't played it before then it's a must visit and we are sure you will enjoy it just as much as we did!! We will certainly return in the very near future, hopefully in a Mixed Open at some point. Thanks again Paul and everyone else associated with Fulford Heath you are a real credit to your golf club.

Nice little course,tight in places and the greens today were superb

We had a lovely round here. Considering the time of year and the amount of rain there has been, the course was in great condition. It's clearly very well looked after. The course itself is charming and a good test. There are a number of excellent holes, in particular 12 and 16, which are both spectacular. We also had a very friendly welcome in the bar. A bargain at the price. Would be great to see more historical memorabilia in the clubhouse. Photo shows 16th
