Barton on Sea Golf Club

Hampshire, England

Barton-on-Sea Golf Club is a private members' club founded in 1897, situated on coastal cliffs on England's south coast between Christchurch, Dorset and Lymington, Hampshire. The course comprises 27 holes combining the original Harry Colt design from 1932 with newer holes designed by J. Hamilton Stutt, completed in 1992. The layout offers year-round playability due to superb drainage systems. The course is characterized by stunning coastal views overlooking the Isle of Wight and across Christchurch Bay toward Purbeck and Swanage. The setting provides an elevated clifftop experience with well-maintained greens and fairways. The club features three courses: Becton, Needles, and Stroller. Notable amenities include a driving range, coaching facilities, and a clubhouse with dining facilities. The course attracts both members and visitors, with reviews highlighting the excellent condition of the course, welcoming atmosphere, and spectacular scenery as defining features of the facility.
