Woodbridge, Suffolk, England
Woodbridge Golf Club
A charming heathland course set in the heart of Suffolk — Woodbridge combines sandy soil, heather-lined fairways, and a welcoming traditional club atmosphere to create a hidden gem of East Anglian golf.
About the Course
Woodbridge Golf Club
Woodbridge Golf Club was established in 1893 and is one of the most charming heathland courses in Suffolk. Designed by J.H. Taylor — one of the Great Triumvirate of early golf — the course is set on the sandy heathland of central Suffolk, with heather-lined fairways and a natural terrain that creates a golf experience of great quality and character.
The course plays to 6,299 yards from the championship tees and is characterised by the sandy soil, the heather-lined fairways, and Taylor's masterful routing through the natural heathland terrain. The design rewards accurate driving and intelligent course management, with the natural vegetation and terrain changes creating a golf experience of genuine quality.
Woodbridge is a hidden gem of East Anglian golf — a course of genuine quality and character that is often overlooked in favour of the more famous courses of the region. The combination of the quality golf, the natural heathland setting, and the welcoming traditional club atmosphere creates a golf experience of exceptional warmth and quality.
