About Thorpeness Hotel and Golf Club Holiday Apartment

Thorpeness is home to a tremendous golf coursedesigned in 1922 by the esteemed James Braidwho was a particularly prolific architectpredominantly in Scotland.

This Suffolk gem is heathland in styleand though not long - measuring 6 432 from the tips - is a fantastic test. Visiting golfers will be charmed as the layout winds its way through silver birch and pinegorse and heatherin a fashion reminiscent of the world-renowned courses at Sunningdale and Woodhall Spa. The sandy soil gives Thorpeness a superb links accentwhile the course's quality has been recognised with the award of a number of regionalnational and international tournaments.

The charming Suffolk landscape makes for a delightful settingwhile on the course itself Braid has created a great variety of holes. Some of the best are the signature 3rdwhere a good drive is the key to negotiating the sharp dog-leg rightthe short 7thwhere a poorly-struck iron will disturb the lilies that cruise the lakeand the terrific closing holewhich demands two great shots to find the greenunder the watchful gaze of the famous windmill.

Braid's famous creativity is extremely evident at Thorpenessand his tremendous course makes this an educated choice for your next golf holiday.
