London Short Break
This gem of a trip offers so many possibilities - the hardest part has been in deciding which courses to leave out ! We have chosen 3 rounds of golf for you at classic heathland and parkland courses - with a Royal course, a Ryder Cup venue, and one delightfully friendly and picturesque course, North Hants - a challenging and undulating course which is also on 'The Open' rosta. For your accommodation we have come up with a truly elegant & friendly hotel on the doorstep of one of the royal parks, and just a short ride from the centre of London. If you want a taster of one other championship course on London's doorstep, such as Wentworth or Sunningdale, just let us know and we'll set it up for you.

Royal Wimbledon Golf Club |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
Royal Wimbledon is perhaps one of London's undiscovered gems. Golf was probably played on Wimbledon Common is the early 19th century. Fantastic layout with a good deal of undulations, this is a real test of shot making. Your approaches are all important here as the greens are small and don't gather your ball. In mid summer the fairways can get a little bare but play it if you can. Old England is alive and kicking and visitors will experience a delightful peaceful atmosphere.
