Broadstone Golf Club Course Review
Broadstone Golf Club, with 18 holes that are all unique challenges, is one of South England’s premier heathland courses.
Straight driving is a must and a handicap score is hard-earned around this difficult par 70.
The club was founded in 1898 and built by Tom Dunn, before a redesign by Harry Colt in 1914 which took in plenty of new holes to fully incorporate the stunning heathland which the course sits upon.
The 14th at Broadstone
The signature hole is the par-4 14th, a downhill drive with stunning vistas is then followed by an uphill approach, just avoid the bunkers!
Recent work by Harry Colt expert Frank Pont on several holes has resulted in some dramatic bunkering and improved teeing areas.
The course covers a large acreage of undulating heathland and each hole is a new treat.
