Played Hayling Golf Club yesterday with some very congenial company on a stunning spring day, and have to say, there was no place I would have preferred to be. It had been 3-4 years since my last visit and it was great to see that the whole Club has been given a significant uplift in recent times.

Whilst entrance signage and new tarmac in the car park are not the most exciting aspects of any golf club, first impressions are key, and there had clearly been investment in this area, which make the arrival more befitting of the stunning Clubhouse and wonderful links.

The original plan to play here was taken last Autumn, because we were seeking a high quality course that would be playable whatever the weather, and whilst the date got pushed back, our decision was entirely justified by the outstanding condition of the course. Firm, fast greens and fairways were a joy to play on. New riveted bunkering appeared impressively around many of the greens, and as the sun burned through the early mist, the bright yellow gorse came to life.

It is fair to say that there are no weak holes on the course; there are however, an excellent variety of short and long Par 4's, some very solid Par 5's and challenging Par 3's. All of this is encapsulated on the run from the 10th to the fourteenth, which is a truly outstanding stretch of holes, although others could quite justifiably prefer a different set.

The Par 3 11th is the signature hole, where any inaccurate shot will be spurned by the raised green leaving a tricky chip or bunker shot. The 12th too is a special hole; you just have to convince yourself that keeping left will reap rewards, even though it appears the far more perilous route.

The course asks questions the whole way round, and is enormous fun to play. And yesterday, it was pure heaven.

I can think of a couple of outstanding Clubs in Ireland that have 36 or more outstanding holes of links golf, but are they the only ones that can compare with Saunton Golf Club in Devon?

The Addington Golf Club, whilst in Surrey, is away from the hub of first class golf found on the western side of the county bordering with neighbouring Berkshire, where you will find courses such as Wentworth, Sunningdale and St. Georges Hill, as well as The Berkshire and Swinley Forest only a few miles away. As a result, it is easily forgotten that this Club has had an equally illustrious history as these Clubs, and is undoubtedly one of the finest and most memorable heathland layouts in the country.

Following a recent restoration by the architect firm of Clayton, DeVries & Pont, the course is recapturing former prestige and position, originally envisioned by the 'Golden Age' architect J.F. Abercromby.

This is a hugely enjoyable test of golf and well worth the visit, even if you have played it in the past. In fact, a golf trip including three other Abercromby's designs, will give you an insight into the skill and vision of the man. https://www.golftourismengland.com/golf-tours/the-abercromby-trail/

Just imagine how you and fellow members would feel if this happened at your golf club!!

Whittington Heath Golf Club. HS2’s most egregious offense? Bulldozing straight through this historic, “Harry Colt-designed” course.

The opportunity to visit the leading golf clubs and hotels in the Southwest is always highly anticipated. It is easy to forget just how breathtakingly beautiful this part of the world is until you arrive and feel the tension melt away as you cross into Devon and Cornwall.

Love this part of Formby Golf Club when it has emerged from the pine trees and feels more like a links. Beautiful video captures the magic! https://fb.watch/vF_581y3gm/
