Royal Ashdown Forest Golf Club is a traditional members' Club with two 18 hole Courses – The Old, which is ranked as one of the top 100 in the British Isles, and The West.

 

Founded in 1888, the Clubhouse was built 5 years later and parts of it still remain remarkably unchanged today. It is this combination of a golf course that has bred many champions and the charm of its Clubhouse, together with its small membership, that has resulted in Royal Ashdown retaining its reputation for being one of the premier clubs in the UK.

 

Royal Ashdown remains a stronghold of foursomes golf, although arrangements can sometimes be made with the Secretary for those who prefer to play three and four balls.

 

The quality of the Courses, the reputation of the dining rooms and the friendly ambience of the Club, makes it a favourite venue for Old Boys' matches, society days and corporate events. Today that is exemplified by the selection of the Old Course by the R&A to host Open Championship Regional Qualifying rounds and by the EGU to stage the 2007 amateur international match between England and Spain.

 

The Club especially welcomes enquiries from organisers who are seeking a venue that can provide two 18-hole Courses for golfers to play in one day.
