Cirencester Golf Course is set in the unique and stunning Cotswolds. It represents upland Golf at its best with typical Cotswold stone walls, varying topography and beautiful vistas. The Golfing test is memorable and fun! There are few courses that drain so well and Winter Golf is also a specialty.
This mature James Braid designed course is situated 2 miles outside of the ancient market town of Cirencester, in the heart of the Cotswolds. It boasts glorious views towards Cirencester and the Marlborough Downs beyond, as well as a rich variety of flora and fauna.
The 18 holes are carefully managed by our dedicated green staff and set up to cater for all grades of golfer. The fairways and semi rough are generous and the rough is fair. The small greens and 51 bunkers defend the course well and if you miss the green on the wrong side, you’ll be left with a testing chip shot. The greens provide you with a good mix of undulations and subtle interest (especially when you walk on the first green, which will test any putting stroke).
We’re fortunate that our course sits on free-draining limestone, as this means we can keep the course open all year round (except in snow or lightning).
It also means we can maintain first class surfaces all year round – even during the winter months, where no artificial surfaces have to be used – all the way from the 1st tee to the 18th green.
The 4th & 18th holes are an interesting twist. Both great holes in their own right, they share a valley which leads on to the high ground, providing the best views and some of the best holes, with the Par 5 – 12th, short Par 3 – 13th, and signature par 4 – 14th hole sticking in the memory.
