Southerndown Golf Club

Welcome to Southerndown Golf Club

On behalf of everyone at Southerndown Golf Club, welcome to our website.

Southerndown is a hidden gem - a unique course, part sandy links, part acid-heathland. As a visitor you can share the beautiful views we enjoy: across the channel to the North Devon moors, down the Ogmore River towards Porthcawl and far away over the hills and valleys of South Wales.

Founded in 1905, Southerndown has a wealth of golfing tradition. Many championship events have been staged here over the years, and top amateurs Peter McEvoy and Gary Wolstenholme, World Champions Bradley Dredge and Stephen Dodd - and even the legendary Gene Sarazen -

have all walked the turf where we play. Henry Cotton famously called our first "One of the toughest opening holes in golf!"

Southerndown is a true natural test of golf, with gorse, bracken and wind all adding to the challenge. Some call the experience ‘millionaire’s golf’; waiting on the tee is rare and the course rarely closes. I have to agree with them. We are truly privileged to be members of a great golf club.

You have found our website: now come and play our wonderful course. I look forward to welcoming you to Southerndown. (Who knows - perhaps we can buy each other a drink?)
