Swinley Forest Golf Club

Swinley Forest Golf Club is one of the most revered private clubs in English golf, laid out on pure Berkshire heathland between Ascot and Bagshot. The course is celebrated for the quality of its playing surface, the clarity of its routing and the way it presents a stern examination without resort to artifice. Heather, pine and silver birch define the corridors, while the sandy soil produces quick, true turf conditions through the seasons. Access is strictly by member invitation, and the club maintains a deliberately low profile, with no published green fees or visitor booking system. For those who play it, Swinley Forest consistently ranks among the half-dozen finest inland courses in the British Isles.
