What The Club Says
The 18-hole course at Purdis Heath was designed by James Braid - a name synonymous with high-quality golf architecture.
Making the best possible use of the natural contours of the heathland surroundings, Braid designed the Purdis course so that its shape resembles a horseshoe which loops around two duck decoy lakes at the centre of estate. The outward holes set off in an anticlockwise flow with the inward holes returning in the opposite direction. The result is that the golfer has to contend with the challenge of coping with winds from varying directions as each hole is played.
The course, built by Messrs Hawtree and Taylor (the five times Open winner who took part in the opening exhibition match), today remains substantially as it was when it was officially opened in 1928 and it compares favourably with the finest inland courses in England.

Suffolk's Finest
Love Purdis - the best in Suffolk, IMO.Not crazy long, but some holes will feel that way, par 5's that are reachable and some challenging par 3's too.
The course is always in great condition, some with very punishing gorse, heather and bunkers. Greens always run true as well.

Club has a 9hole course which runs alongside 18 hole, which is again a lovely alternative to anyone who wants to pay and play!!
Had a beer when we finished playing watching golfers putting on the 18th green!!
A fantastic golf club, which seems very well run, with high standards for everyone visiting the club to enjoy.
Highly recommended.

Superbly kept heathland course with some mouth-watering undulations.
The greens are always in fantastic condition and a joy to putt on.
The layout is great as well. Nothing ever feels the same and even though there are some shorter holes (1st and 9th for example) it still doesn't make them easy.
Its not the most forgiving off the tee as you would expect with most heathland courses, but every hole feel like its picture perfect, if you get the chance to play here don't think twice.
