Thorndon Park Golf Club is a classic design in 1920 by Harry Shapland Colt, one of the greatest golf architects. In 240 acres of an ancient deer park, he created a challenging course – sensitively lengthened over the years – for players of all standards, with the Palladian mansion of Thorndon Hall as the magnificent backdrop to the final hole. Thorndon Park is thought to be the best course in the region and regularly features in the ‘Top100 courses.co.uk’ reviews.
