The Golf Courses You Must Play This Autumn

By: Golfshake Editor | Fri 10 Sep 2021


It's been another boom summer for the game, but we're now entering that transitional season of autumn, before we reach the depths of winter. 

For golfers who want an extended calendar of regular play, this can be a great time of year, with better value green fees and some fine bouts of weather to be enjoyed.

But where should you visit for a memorable round? We have studied the hundreds of thousands of reviews submitted by the Golfshake Community to identify venues that have rated highest for the months of September, October and November, picking out the courses that golfers have most acclaimed for autumn.

So, why not find one near you and experience the 25 Golf Courses That You MUST Play This Autumn!

Carlisle Golf Club

Region: North of England

Golfshake Rating: 4.66

Autumn Golf Rating: 5.00

Review Comment: "First time playing Carlisle Golf Club and very impressed. Friendly welcome in pro shop and directions given. Superb practice facilities, large driving range. Course in excellent condition given recent wet weather, greens in good nick. Good variety of holes with a couple of tricky par 3s, especially the 17th with real card wrecker potential. Food excellent in clubhouse. All round top place to visit."

Charnwood Forest Golf Club

Region: East Midlands

Golfshake Rating: 4.51

Autumn Golf Rating: 5.00

Region: West Midlands

Golfshake Rating: 4.93

Autumn Golf Rating: 4.96

Review Comment: "This time we played the Highgate and everyone in our group loved it. Greens were easily the best we have played on all year. Not sure which is best out of the Highgate or the Lodge, we will need to go back and play both again!"

St Enodoc Golf Club

St Enodoc

Region: South West of England

Golfshake Rating: 4.91

Autumn Golf Rating: 4.91

Review Comment: "Played for the first time, having heard many good things. Lots of memorable holes and a great challenge as a golfer. If I could get off the tee or putt I may have put a good score together, but alas your whole game needed to get a good score on here, but it is fair and the quality of the condition and design is up there. Not cheap but worth it. Probably one of the best five courses I have played in the UK."

Sandiway Golf Club

Region: North of England

Golfshake Rating: 4.92

Autumn Golf Rating: 4.80

Review Comment: "Sandiway is an outstanding course. Every hole is different and very memorable. When you play for the first time, its the sort of place you’ll be able to recall every hole afterwards. It is a massive property - seems to meander through dense woodland for miles. The contour, shaping and elevation changes are stunning. Course is always immaculately presented. It drains like a links course and is hardly ever shut."
