Fancy a round while you’re here The New Forest Golf Club is a classic heathland course on the outskirts of Lyndhurst – a short drive from our door and a lovely way to spend a morning or afternoon in the National Park.
Why golfers love it
- Historic setting – the club dates back to 1888 and is one of Hampshire’s oldest.
- Heathland character – 18 holes, par 69, with firm, fast-running turf and plenty of natural charm.
- Only-in-the-New-Forest moments – you may see ponies or cattle wandering across the fairways, which is part of the course’s unique appeal. Please treat them with respect and give way.
