Golf The Courses History Flyovers Scorecards and Rules General Information Halfway Houses Courses History History Golf has always been an attraction at Woodcote Park and offers two exceptional downland golf courses in the beautiful surroundings of the Epsom Downs. Sweeping down towards Epsom Racecourse, the tree-lined grounds make for a dramatic backdrop to a perfect golfing experience. Shortly after acquiring the estate, 27 holes (in three loops) were devised by the renowned golf-course designer William Herbert Fowler. On 20 March 1915 the first golf course, known today as the Old Course, was opened. By 1931, two full 18-hole courses, called the ‘Old’ and ‘New’, had been completed. The Coronation of 1953 was celebrated at Woodcote Park with the opening of the Coronation Course designed by architect F R Smith. This was on the site of the New Course which had been ploughed up during the Second World War. Courses Flyovers Old Course 18 Videos 1st Hole 0:37 2nd Hole 0:28 3rd Hole 0:17 4th
