Course Overview

Hole by Hole Description of Highcliffe Castle Golf 

I hope you enjoy reading through these tips which will help you negotiate your way around the picturesque and delightful Highcliffe Castle Golf Club.

You may play plenty of golf courses that are longer and more undulating but we are confident you won’t find anywhere that will put a smile on your face like playing a round at HCGC will. You’ll play golf in comfortably under 3 hours whilst enjoying a warm and friendly environment where you can relax and take in the idyllic surroundings of Steamer Point Nature Reserve that runs adjacent to the course that is often described as “A Little Gem”.

Voted Dorset’s Friendliest Golf Club by Fire Radio 2020.

Below is a quote by the late Professional, Commentator and Golfing Legend Peter Alliss, who after playing at Highcliffe Castle in the annual PGA Bournemouth Alliance meeting once said....

The remarkable thing about Highcliffe Castle Golf Club is the fact that it covers less than 50 acres, but for all its small acreage, the course had a great deal of charm and you needed to have quite a bit of skill to get round in a decent score. If you didn’t happen to be straight, trying to get close to the flags from the sides of those very small greens was not so easy!
I always think of these occasions with a great deal of happiness. All the members had a smile on their face, so pleased and proud to be members of such an intimate club, surrounded as they were by “big brothers” who could blow loud trumpets but were unable to play with more harmony than those who played at Highcliffe.
