Stoke Poges Golf Club

Stoke Poges Golf Club lies in the South Buckinghamshire village of Stoke Poges, on the doorstep of Slough and within easy reach of the M40 and M4 corridors that link this part of the Thames Valley to London and Windsor. The village itself is best known beyond golfing circles for its literary connection: the churchyard of St Giles' inspired Thomas Gray's Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard, and the surrounding parish still carries something of the quiet, tree-lined character that drew Georgian writers and landowners to the area. Golf has long been part of this landscape, with several courses established across the district's parkland estates over the past century. Stoke Poges sits within commuting distance of Beaconsfield, Gerrards Cross and Windsor, making it a convenient stop for golfers based in the western fringes of Greater London. The postcode district, SL2, covers a mix of residential streets and open green space typical of the Chiltern foothills, giving the area a semi-rural feel despite its proximity to the M25. For visitors unfamiliar with the region, the club offers a chance to play golf in one of Buckinghamshire's more historically resonant corners, within a network of established clubs that make this part of the county a notable golfing destination.
