Bramshaw Golf Club: Where Golf Meets Natural Beauty
Welcome to Bramshaw Golf Club, a prestigious corporate club located in Lyndhurst, boasting two magnificent parkland courses set against the breathtaking backdrop of the New Forest. The Forest Course, believed to be the oldest in Hampshire, dates back to approximately 1865 when it was designed by local landowner Philip de Crespigny for the enjoyment of his weekend guests. Offering open aspects and rolling heathland, it has been ranked as the 21st best course under £35 in GB&I, making it a must-play for golf enthusiasts.
In contrast, the Manor Course, unveiled in 1971, offers a different yet equally stunning experience. Set amidst the beautiful New Forest in a landscaped parkland with mature trees and 200-year-old hardwood plantations, it is considered one of the finest and most challenging courses in the South of England. Its gentle undulations, excellent fairways, and greens make it a stern test for golfers of all skill levels, requiring strategic shot selection for a successful round.
Both courses abound in natural beauty and wildlife, adding to the overall enchanting atmosphere. From the meandering Winterbourne Shepherds Gutter flowing through the heart of the courses to the ancient woodlands of Popes, visitors may spot deer, guinea fowl, peacocks, Nuthatches, and even Bramshaw's very own buzzing Bees amidst the wildflowers.
The club, founded in 1880, features a well-equipped Pro Shop offering services like tuition, custom fitting, and repairs to ensure that golfers have everything they need for an enjoyable game. For those looking to relax after a round, the clubhouse houses a bar and restaurant, and it also serves as a beautiful venue for weddings and corporate events.
Additionally, Bramshaw Golf Club goes beyond golfing pleasures, with facilities like a gym and onsite accommodation in the form of a hotel. Whether you're a seasoned golfer seeking a challenging course or a novice looking for an unforgettable experience amidst nature, Bramshaw Golf Club promises an exceptional and rewarding time for all who visit.
