Southwell Golf Club, established in 1993, is set within the grounds of Southwell Racecourse near Newark in Nottinghamshire. The eighteen-hole course measures 5,773 yards and plays to a par of 70 for men, with a par of 72 and 5,232 yards from the ladies' tees. Its best-known hole is the seventh, a 138-yard par three played to an island green, a signature feature that stands out from the rest of the layout. The club offers a combined golf and racing package, which includes either an eighteen or nine-hole round alongside admission to a race meeting at the adjoining course, a racecard, a complimentary drink and a traditional hot pie, linking the golf course directly to the racecourse's own event calendar. Southwell is a small Nottinghamshire town best known for its Minster, and its racecourse has long been a fixture of the town's identity alongside its historic centre. The shared site with the racecourse gives the golf club an unusual setting compared with most Nottinghamshire courses, with racing fixtures and golf operating side by side across the same grounds. The combination of a modern course and an island green has helped give the club a distinct identity among courses in the wider Newark area.
Southwell Golf Club plays over 18 holes, a par of 70, and a length of 5,773 yards. The club dates back to 1993, giving it roughly 33 years of history in Newark.
