Southwell Golf Club

Nottinghamshire, United Kingdom

Established in 1993, Southwell Golf Club is an 18-hole championship course measuring 5,773 yards with a par of 70 for men and 5,232 yards with a par of 72 for ladies. Located near Rolleston in Nottinghamshire, approximately 2 miles from Southwell and 5 miles from Newark, the course is situated within Southwell Racecourse. The course features two distinctly contrasting nines. The Front 9 is characterized by numerous water hazards and sits within the racecourse grounds. The signature 7th hole is a 138-yard par 3 with an island green, likened to Sawgrass. The Back 9 presents a different challenge with tree-lined fairways that emphasize accuracy from the tee.
