Links style golf inland

An inland course playing hard and fast with rolling hills and a breeze was as close as you will get to links golf inland. With stunning views of London and fast and true greens, Purley Downs is a great experience and a true test of golf.

epic course

all different types of holes ... long par 4s, short par 4s, tricky par 3s. Perhaps only missing piece is a long par 5, but it really didnt matter because the course is 10/10 in design, challenge etc. Also ... very well kept, greenkeepers are doing a great job with fairway maintenance, tee area. Greens are good speed. £35 rate after 1.30PM on week days is a really good deal.

Fantastic Condition

Middle of February, all greens in use and in amazing condition fro Autumn, never mind winter. Not particularly muddy. When other courses in the the area are either closed or quagmires, this course continues to be open and offering quality golf.

Best greens in East Surrey

Greens were brilliant. Course was interesting and a challenge, but a bit hilly. Overall, I would love to be a member, if they'll have me!

Reviewed Feb 6 2018

Great course in excellent condition despite being the middle of winter. Goes up and down and all around. Some of the par 4's are slightly unfair in that they have dips in the middle which means unless you bomb it a mile you will hit the fairway and roll back a considerable distance which then leaves you with a considerable shot up hill. But other than that it's a pleasure to play. Nice food both before and after round too and very friendly in clubhouse.

(Round played: Feb 2018 - Score: 89 Handicap: 12.1)

Beautifully presented course with quality fast greens (not that easy to read) outstanding views across London skyline. Pro staff and bar staff very friendly and we were made to feel welcome. Will be considering applying for membership once I want to settle on one course. Not stuffy like some members clubs I've been to.

Interesting course with superb views of London. Course in excellent condition. Greens very fast and undulating, but very true. Long par 4s challenging for the shorter hitter.
Highly recommended.
