About Heathland Golf
What Is Heathland Golf?
Heathland courses are built on sandy, well-drained terrain typically covered in heather, gorse and silver birch. The soil drains superbly, keeping courses playable year-round. The tight, firm turf produces fast greens and a ball flight that rewards precise iron play.
The Best Heathland Areas
Surrey's 'Golden Triangle' — centred on the villages of Sunningdale, Ascot and Wentworth — contains more top-quality heathland golf than almost anywhere in the world. Berkshire, Hampshire and parts of Nottinghamshire and Staffordshire add further quality inland heathland golf.
