Sunny on the Suffolk Coast

It is hard not to enjoy golf whilst the sun is shining but Southwold really is something special. We played on an evening twilight rate which was great value, better still there were very few people on the course. Every hole offers a different challenge with plenty of gorse to collect poor shots. The fairways were running with the occasional "links" bounce but all to be expected from a coastal course. The greens are relatively small and well protected but offer an exceptional putting surface, most probably the best I have putted on.
We had a quick bite to eat in the Clubhouse before golf and the staff and members made us feel very welcome.

Every hole at Southwold offers a completely different challenge and that is why you can never be tired of playing this course.\The greens are in superb condition all year round.\There is a great secluded practice area a short walk from the car park.\The staff and extremely friendly and the food is sensational value. \This is such a picturesque course located a stones throw away from the town and beach. \

Just had 9 holes this afternoon, I normally play at another local course so it was interesting to see what Southwold had to offer.
This is a real test of golf with a very interesting lay out. Each hole requires you to engage your golfing brain! No grip it and rip it here!
We stopped for coffee and lovely fruit cake in the charming clubhouse to discuss our missed birdie puts!
All in all, lovely course with a very friendly atmosphere and welcoming staff.
We will be back!

Played this in the winter - course held up well to the wet conditions. A challenge to play well with all the gorse, but rewards good shots. Friendly proshop and clubhouse.

Reviewed Jul 18 2013

We recieved a warm friendly welcome from the clubhouse staff. Our 4 ball had a fantastic full English overlooking the 9th green prior to our 11am tee. The course itself is a challenge, with the ruff much like Muirfield you have to plot your way around this little gem. Greens were quick and very true. The 2nd 9 are similar to the 1st with a few holes giving great views of Southwold and the picturesque surrounding area.
We will be sure to return and take advantage of their twilight golf rates which were exceptional.

Mr

This course is well worth playing. Greens are excellent. You must manage this course . Some exceptional holes especially across the road the sixth. Wow this is a long par 4, with lots of problems along the way.
