What the club says: Frinton is a seaside course that provides a fine test of golf. At 6,265 yards, Frinton is not excessively long by modern standards and, at first glance, the open fairways with their lack of trees may seem unchallenging, but this is certainly not the whole story. The fast, firm, undulating greens test the best putters.
Tidal ditches cross many fairways requiring accurately placed shots. The trademark of the links course, the ever-changing sea breeze, demands careful club selection on every hole.
Frinton Golf Club was founded in 1895 and can look back on a distinguished past as well as looking forward to an exciting future.
The Long course has been renamed as The Havers Course. The 9 hole Short course is called The Kirby Course.

Links style Seaside course
Frinton golf course right next to the coast in North Essex is a great place to play for golfers of any standard. The layouts defences are the long rough in the summer and the sea breezes which are frequent and ever changing. The clubhouse is welcoming and serves great food and the Pro shop is well stocked. I would definitely recommend especially if you wanted to make a day of it with a round of golf and a day at the seaside.Reviewer Rating

Brilliant Day out
Top notch course with greens that some can only dream of having. Lots of work going on to make the course even better.Hospitality was some of the best I've ever encountered. From bar staff to General Manager, everyone is there to make sure you have a good time. If I lived nearer I would definitely be looking to join this lovely club.

Good course on the Essex coast just above Clacton. Worth a visit though I suspect the course would play twice as hard if the wind got up. Played pretty average but will live long in the memory for getting a first ever hole in one on 16.

Lovely club but too many users of the 9 hole course never repair pitch marks.

What a turn around, last time we played the course about 3 years ago the fairways were awful, they now have really improved, course was in excellent condition, unfortunately the day we played it was windy and the greens were pretty firm but you couldn’t fault the course, staff as always very friendly in the pro shop and in the bar and restaurant. A lovely feeling of little England to it.Reviewer Rating
