Worplesdon

71^st

Worplesdon Golf Club is one of the prettiest and most delightful of Surrey’s many heath and heather courses and it’s arguably the best of the trinity of “Ws”...

Average Reviewers Score:

Pennard

72^nd

Pennard Golf Club is a delightful old-fashioned affair and without doubt, this is one of the very best links courses in the British Isles.

Average Reviewers Score:

Broadstone

73^rd

Broadstone Golf Club is laid out on glorious rolling terrain. The elevated homeward nine provides panoramic views of the Purbeck Hills and Poole Harbour.

Average Reviewers Score:

Gleneagles (Queen's)

74^th

The Queen’s course is the pretty little sister at the Gleneagles Hotel. She’s only short course but she's exquisitely delicate and stunningly beautiful.

Average Reviewers Score:

Machrihanish Dunes

75^th

Machrihanish Dunes was the vision of Australian tycoon Brian Keating. Only a small fraction of this 270-acre property was disturbed by architect David McLay Kidd and associate Paul Kimber when they laid out the golf course.

Average Reviewers Score:

Portstewart (Strand)

76^th

The Strand course at Portstewart Golf Club is exhilarating. Set amidst imposing, gigantic sand dunes with panoramic views across the Atlantic mouth of Lough Foyle to the Inishowen peninsula beyond.

Average Reviewers Score:

Wentworth (East)

77^th

Wentworth West is the course that everybody rushes to play, but the East is more enjoyable for the average player. It is also more sandy, intimate and charming.

Average Reviewers Score:

Royal St David's

78^th

The glorious setting for Royal St David’s Golf Club is nothing short of beautiful and romantic. The forbidding medieval Harlech castle and towering sand dunes guard the course.

Average Reviewers Score:

Hindhead

79^th

The front nine at Hindhead Golf Club is laid out through heather strewn Ice Age valleys and the back nine plays on a heathland plateau.

Average Reviewers Score:

Duke's St Andrews

80^th

The Duke’s is the course belonging to the famous Old Course Hotel and it’s the only non-links course in St Andrews.
