Golf Courses Near Bournemouth

By distance from Bournemouth, 4 are within 10km of the centre, 8 are 10 to 25km out and 14 are 25 to 50km out. Because these are straight-line figures, the drive is usually longer.

The courses fall in four counties. Hampshire holds the most (10), while the rest are in Dorset (9), Isle of Wight (6) and Wiltshire (1).

5 courses list a length, from 5,700 to 6,400 yards. 3 list a par, from 69 to 71. Because tees differ from club to club, treat these figures as a guide.

5 of the 26 courses have a listed founding year, from 1892 to 1935. 2 of them were founded before 1900. However, the rest have no year on record, so the oldest club here may be older than it looks.

The closest other city pages are Southampton (40km), Portsmouth (57km) and Bath (81km). Courses between two cities can appear on both pages, since each page covers its own 50km circle.

Each page measures from one point in the centre of Bournemouth, and a course appears only if it has a map position. As a result, a club just outside the circle is not listed here, although it may be on a neighbouring page.
