What the club says: Stowmarket is a mature parkland course, with a wide variety of mature trees that provides a wonderful spectrum of colour throughout the changing seasons. The greens are small and challenging and always kept in excellent condition.
At 6118 yards, Stowmarket is a par 69 that is rarely beaten, even by the most accomplished of players.
It is challenging enough for England Golf to hold national qualifiers and the English Golf Union to designate it as a "Centre of Excellence" to use on a regular basis to develop and train the county's best Junior Golfers.

Lovely Parkland Course
Great course at Stowmarket. Fairly tight off the tee, maybe not bashing driver everywhere as keeping it in play is a must.Some hole are defiantly attackable, but some you are happy to make par and move on.
Really tough set of par 3's including the 4th which plays 240 yards downhill. When dry it doesn't play to its yardage.
Worth a visit if you are local.

Cracking Course
Excellent layout with two par 3?s within the first four holes. I really enjoyed them and the course looked great, only let down is the middle part of the course felt squeezed with holes either side and the amount of ?fore? shouts had us on a duck & cover routine. 18th hole is a par 3 but it's a challenging hole to finish with and is a nice way to end with, thankfully no one was watching from the clubhouse.Reviewer Rating

Stunning parkland course in perfect condition.
Fairly tight off the tee in places and don't really need to hit driver everywhere. Finding fairways is as must but if you do miss you will still have fun trying to find the greens.
Its a lovely layout, very testing and dont be sucked into thinking its easy as a par 69, some brutal holes.
Only 2 par 5's with one being the opening hole and some of the greens are hard to hit so will really test your iron play.
Watch out for the 245 yard par 3 4th hole (plays downhill so can chase a long iron onto the green)
Lovely place to play golf.

Exceptional!!!!
This review is long overdue!I cannot recommend Stowmarket Golf Club enough, including the course and Jon Markham, the head professional. I have been a member for three years now and have also been part of five other clubs, giving me a well-informed perspective to share.
The club - The facilities and staff are exceptional, fulfilling all the expectations of a member. Both on and off the course, the staff are always eager to assist and provide excellent service.
The course - A picturesque parkland course that is consistently maintained to a superb standard. The grounds staff deserve commendation for their year-round dedication, ensuring every aspect from tee to green is impeccable. The greens, in particular, deserve special mention. Thank you for your efforts.
Jon Markham - Let me highlight the extraordinary nature of this individual! Over the past two years, I have had the privilege of having over a dozen lessons with Jon. Not only is he a remarkable golf coach, but also an exceptional person. His enthusiasm, encouragement, and positivity in communicating ways to improve are unmatched. He personifies a humble expert, and his genuine eagerness to help keeps you connected. Jon Markham is undoubtedly an invaluable asset to Stowmarket Golf Club.
Kudos to everyone for your outstanding work! While members may not express it frequently enough, your efforts truly make a significant impact on every visitor's experience.

Challenging Course
The course is challenging, straight tee shots are a must here. But the challenge is why we play! Facilities at Stowmarket are great, very clean, very spacious and welcoming. Will definitely return.(Round played: Feb 2022 - Score: 111 Handicap: 30)

Suffolks Best Parkland?
For me, I think this is the best parkland in Suffolk.Everytime I play I find a different test. The layout and variety of the holes is great and I have always found it to be in great condition too. You will find trees if you are wayward from the tee but as long as you play sensible you can still make pars.
The 4th is great as too the 17th.
Always getting better too.

Great course and club
Really nice course and lay out is good. Fairly open so not overly challenging in areas. Gives you more confidence with the driver which is good.Club house, restaurant and bar is well stocked and food has always been good when eaten there.
Pro shop is really well stocked up, and friendly staff.
Practise areas look well maintained.
