Pwllheli

9^th 22^nd

Pwllheli Golf Club is unique... park-like and links-like. The clubhouse is so close to the sea that it's almost a boathouse.

Average Reviewers Score:

Ranfurly Castle

3^rd 92^nd

There is a hint of Gleneagles at Ranfurly Castle Golf Club, a mixture of heathland and moorland holes. A hidden gem if ever there was one.

Average Reviewers Score:

Ratho Park

25^th

Ratho Park Golf Club is laid out on a compact site bounded on two sides by the Union Canal, virtually shielded from the outside world by mature trees surrounding the property...

Average Reviewers Score:

Reay

14^th 86^th

Billed as Britain’s most northerly 18-hole links course, the layout at Reay Golf Club was established in 1893 but it fell into decline during World War II, only to re-emerge stronger than ever in the early 1960s.

Average Reviewers Score:

Rhyl

Gem

Rhyl offers an old-fashioned links golf experience with generous fairways and greens that are firm, fast and well protected by bunkers.

Average Reviewers Score:

Romford

4^th

Romford Golf Club was founded in 1894 and this six-time Open Championship Regional Qualifying course was described by Bernard Darwin as “neither short nor easy”.

Average Reviewers Score:

Rotherham

18^th

Rotherham Golf Club is a majestic parkland course that is set in the delightful undulating grounds of the Thrybergh Estate which was notably mentioned in the Domesday Book.

Average Reviewers Score:

Royal Aberdeen (Balgownie)

1^st 8^th 17^th 52^nd

The Balgownie at Royal Aberdeen Golf Club is a traditional out and back links course running along the shore of the North Sea and it has one of the finest first nine holes in golf.

Average Reviewers Score:

Royal Blackheath

15^th

Undoubtedly the 17th century Eltham Lodge is a worthy and fitting clubhouse for Royal Blackheath Golf Club, providing a decorous ambiance for such a historic club, and the course is enjoying a 21st century renaissance.

Average Reviewers Score:

Royal Burgess

16^th 84^th

Known as the Royal Burgess Golfing Society of Edinburgh since 1929, the club proudly takes its role in the history and tradition of golf very seriously...
