West Byfleet Golf Club Top 100 Review

Established in 1922, West Byfleet Golf Club features an 18-hole course originally designed by Cuthbert Butchart and later redesigned by renowned architect John Abercromby, who also created The Addington, Coombe Hill, and Knole Park. Located in Surrey near Woking, the course measures 6,531 yards off the men's purple competition tees with a par of 70, featuring eight par four holes exceeding 400 yards each, making it a challenging layout where par is rarely broken. The ladies' course plays to 5,647 yards with a par of 72. The club's signature hole is the 13th, a demanding par 3 over water. The course is regarded as a rigorous test of golf skill, reflecting Abercromby's design philosophy. The club welcomes visiting golfers throughout the year and maintains a strong community focus, having roots dating back to 1906 when the land was originally used for golf as Bleakdown Golf Club.
