What the club says: Finchley is set in the grounds of an imposing Victorian stately home that has served as the clubhouse for more than 70 years. The panorama below shows the view from the Veranda of the clubhouse, where you can relax and enjoy a drink and some food after your round while watching the action on the 12th, 13th and 18th holes.

The 6,356 yard, par 72 wooded, picturesque, parkland course is recognised as the finest challenge of golf in London. Designed by five-times Open winner James Braid, his short, uphill 12th hole, "Braid's Masterpiece", is one of the best known par threes in the south of England.

I really felt challenged by Finchley's long par 4's and tight fairways
A very nice track.

lovely surprise i the heart of London

Finchley Golf club is a well maintained golfcourse with tricky greens and fast, tight fairways.
Accuracy off the tee is paramount.

Always an enjoyable Braid designed course with open but tree lined fairways. Good challenges. Fairways recovering well from winter & greens approaching their prime. Certainly the best I’ve played this year.

1st signs of Autumn as the ground is getting heavier & the greens are slowing down. Fairways are holding up but there are more muddy areas off them. Still an enjoyable Braid course .

First signs of holding the water on the course. Greens soft & slower. Fairways softer & rough wet & harder to hit through. Even some tees were squishy. Adapt to the conditions or fail. Option B for me. Still a great course but will wait fir some dryer days before returning

Haven't played here for years. A very mature hilly parkland course. Lots of blind shots over ridges. Overall in good condition but some bunkers had water in them and sand was soggy.

Tired Clubhouse and Course

Unfortunate circumstances meant the course was under water for most of it. Discounting that for the purposes of the review; you can easily see the club needs an injection of sorts to revitalise what is clearly a great setting and foundation of a course
