Bowood Golf & Country Club, Bowood

Bowood

Driving through the Golden Gates of Bowood's grand entrance, you enter a golfing haven. Set within ‘Capability' Brown's 2000-acre Great Park and the estate of Bowood House and Gardens, lies the championship golf course carefully and meticulously designed by Dave Thomas, architect of the Belfry. Working with the natural beauty of the majestic rolling parkland, with a wealth of mature trees and lakes, Thomas' brief was to create a course to be enjoyed by all who wished to play. With a range of tees on every hole, the higher handicapped golfer is not overwhelmed by too difficult a course, yet from the back tees in events which include the European Challenge Tour Championships, even the greatest from the professional ranks find this stunning course a challenging test of their skills.
