What the club says: The Goodwood Park layout was designed in 1987 by renowned golf architect Donald Steele and lies within the parkland surrounding Goodwood House. Indeed the 6,650 par 72 course has been carefully designed to blend in with the splendid surroundings of the Estate.
The Downs Course was laid out in 1914 by legendary golf architect, designer of Gleneagles and Carnoustie and five times winner of the Masters Championship, James Braid, The Downs Course features tricky doglegs and long sweeping greens which are both a treat and a challenge to true golf fans. The Downs was cleverly renovated in 2006 to retain the essential character of Braid’s concept while providing a challenge for the modern game for both amateurs and professionals alike.

Absolutely what you'd expect, a wonderful place

Ultra friendly and knowledgeable staff can't do enough to look after you at this rather swanky establishment in the setting of rolling downlands. Course in great condition, with plenty of challenges. Vintage style buggies are a great edition, as are rumble strips on paths to give you the impression you are reaching up The Hill between holes. Could be better signage to help first timers around. Food, excellent!

Nice Views

Opening six holes slowly bring you to a long uphill climb to the seventh and from then on you are either downhill or uphill. Greens had been dressed and this made stopping the ball and putting a challenge.

Nice course laid out very well, a few tight driving holes but in general plenty of room off the tee
Greens were in good condition for the time of the year and ran very true
This is a good course that's not too punishing, yes I would play this again ????????????????

Very open but challenging course!

Great course, and we were very lucky with the weather as well, which made it even better. Some tough little holes that required a bit of thinking rather than just whacking it!

Goodwoo. Downs course

Played via a charity auction bid, otherwise it looks to be very pricey if you're not a member.
Got there early, large carpark, attractive clubhouse and pro shop. Had a lovely lunch, food was very good and reasonably priced ie ?16 burger.
Driving range and practice green were used before starting , then hit the Downs course.
It's a beautiful course set over rolling countryside. Some fantastic holes and not too long, however there are a few blind tee shots so buy a map to save leaving yourself blocked out. A second visit would be nice but we paid ?60 and the chap who made the charity donation paid comfortably more. Looks to be about ?140 for an experience day. It's a nice course but it's not that nice IMHO.
Oh if you do play it is VERY hilly in places if you walk and we got lost as signage between tees is a bit hit or miss.

Blind & Sloping

It's so long since I've played this course that I didn't recognise most of it especially the front 9,
with it being so dry at the moment with the blind holes and the slopes you were getting penalise
for hitting good shots as the fairways were very hard and fast and the slopes compounded the problem.
