What the club says: This popular Heathland course with views of Lichfield Cathedral in the distance is well situated in the Midlands, on the A51 between Lichfield and Tamworth (next door to Whittington Barracks), is easily accessible to the midlands motorway network and is close to the M6 toll road.

The course is a good test for golfers of all levels. The course wends its way through heather and gorse and you will need to keep on the straight and narrow to score well.

Great course

In 5 years time this course will be fantastic, the new holes that need to mature a bit, blending with the old holes will make fire a really interesting course. At the moment it is still a great test though.

My favourite course

Despite undergoing some changes due to HS2, the course is still fantastic, and the greens immaculate. HS2 is bringing a new clubhouse and 5 new holes, as well as brand new bunkers on every hole.

Nice heathland course

Traditional heathland course with firm fairways requiring good ball control to score well. Very well kept and well worth a visit if in the area.

Great layout

Whittington is a fantastic course undergoing some excellent changes but still very worth playing. A great heathland course. Must visit. Hospitality is superb, food and drink along with service is top notch.

Fabulous Old Course

One of my favourite golf courses, burnt brown from heat wave, but with bright lush greens. Played today at probably its optimum condition.

Wow. A links course in the middle of England

What a fantastic course. Really lovely holes and course management skills needed. It is a real test of golf but it gives you a chance. Excellent conditions with greens not super fast

Lovely course in great condition. Pro shop extremely helpful and knowledgable.

Only downside are the widths of the fairways! Will play again soon hopefully would love chance to improve middle of the round where I was awful!
