Welcome to Epsom Golf Club

Where the golf, as well as the views, is stunning!

Inspiring, challenging and never ordinary. That is the course on top of the downs at Epsom Golf Club. Renowned for its testing, undulating greens, known for its stunning views over London and revered for the extraordinary friendliness of its members and staff. History plays an important part at Epsom with its close links to one of the oldest racecourses in the world. The Downs have been a centre for recreation for centuries and no doubt that golf has been played on the Downs even longer than the club’s 130 year old history.

The Downs form a natural topography for golf. Presenting a course as nature intended, full of character and challenging golfers to use a full repertoire of shots. The subsoil is chalk, so drainage is fantastic and golf is often played at Epsom when other courses are closed.

For any golfer, Epsom offers an unusual challenge. At 5,780 yards, the course comprises a wide variety of traditional downland holes that offer a unique and intriguing challenge to golfers because no two holes are alike.

From some tees, the hole seems tight through trees whereas others seem more open but the undulating fairways and greens ensure that good concentration and application are required. Many say that the course at Epsom is a great leveller because guile and skill replace the ability to drive balls a long way as on many modern courses.

However, it is Epsom’s greens that are legend. Consistent and very true, they offer a very demanding test because of their mixture of surprising speed and undulation. Only the 18th green can boast to be level and is also the only green at Epsom to feature bunkers.
