Thorndon Park Golf Club ☆ Follow

Thorndon Park Golf Club is a classic golf course designed in 1920 by renowned architect Harry Shapland Colt, situated in 240 acres of ancient deer park near Brentwood, Essex. The course presents a challenging layout sensitively lengthened over the years to accommodate players of all standards. Set within the grounds of Thorndon Hall, a Palladian mansion that serves as a dramatic backdrop to the finishing hole, the course benefits from a distinctive landscape featuring mature oaks and countryside tranquility despite its proximity to the M25 motorway, less than two miles away. The course is bounded by a vast country park, providing an elevated golfing experience. The design reflects Colt's architectural reputation and remains a premier course in Essex, offering WHS-compliant playing options. The venue accommodates both members and visitors, with facilities supporting tournament play and society visits while maintaining the character of its historic design.
