Hayling Golf Club

Hayling Island, Hampshire, England

Hayling Golf Club is a premier links course established in 1883 on Hayling Island, Hampshire. The course stretches just over 6,500 yards and was last shaped by renowned architect Tom Simpson in the 1940s, whose design has endured as a championship-caliber test. Set on Sinah Common, a Site of Special Scientific Interest, the course features classic links characteristics including sharp pot bunkers, fast fairways, fine greens, and challenging undulating terrain framed by fescue, heather, and gorse. The landscape offers spectacular views across the Solent and Langstone Harbour, complemented by year-round playability. The course has hosted numerous championship events, earning Championship Course status and recognition as a Top 50 Golf Course in England and Top 100 Links Course in the UK and Ireland. Hayling is noted for its variety of holes that pose distinctly different challenges, with memorable opening and closing holes surveyed by the Art Deco clubhouse. The course demands precision and strategy, with blind shots and wind presenting significant difficulties. Its exceptional turf quality and strategic design make it a distinctive and memorable links experience, regarded by many as one of England's underrated courses.
