Bridport & West Dorset Golf Club
The Clubhouse, Bridport, Dorset, DT6 4PS United Kingdom
Over its 119 year history the course has seen many changes. For the first 20 years it was situated on West Cliff before moving to its current site on East Cliff in 1911. It became a 18 hole course in 1921 and since then has witnessed further alterations, the last major one being in 1989 with the acquisition of additional land on which has been built today’s 1st, 9th, 17th and 18th holes and the new Clubhouse.
An outstandingly beautiful vista awaits all who play the course with scenic views not only over the sea and shore, but inland to the two highest points in Dorset, Pilsdon Pen and Lewesdon Hill. The course abounds with wildlife and the singing of a skylark is a regular sound to be heard.
The signature hole, the 6th, is only 133 yards long but has a drop of over 90 feet with one commentator rating it in the top 100 holes in the world.
A dry stone wall features on four of the holes, one of which is the 371 yard 13th. The legendary Max Faulkener drove the green (365 yards at the time) in an exhibition match in 1952.
With a variable wind, changing weather and a challenging course, a round at Bridport is a test for all levels of golfer.Book a Tee Time

Nice course on the whole, can get windy up on the cliffs. Greens were a bit slow and bobbly, let the course down a bit.

Good course with wonderful views. Rough is a nightmare, but if I were a player that was good enough to stay on the fairway, I wouldn't be complaining

An absolute gem set on the cliffs with absolutely fantastic views along the coast and inland. If you ever feel like loosing your temper, pause, look and put things into perspective!
Course has several super holes 6th in particular. Above sea location means wind and breeze always present, tough but acceptable rough. After 18 you'll really look forward to the modern and welcoming club house with a Spike Bar(wish other courses as considerate). Overall superb and one of my local favourites
