Hampstead Golf Club

Reports of golf on this part of Hampstead Heath date back to the 1870s, with small groups of golfers playing there informally, cutting out a few holes in the land for their own recreation. There were less than 100 golf courses in the whole of England in 1893 when the Hampstead Golf Club was founded. Hampstead Golf Club is the closest golf course to Central London and was designed by Tom Dunn. Hampstead Golf Club is an exceptional place – a top-quality 9-hole golf course with a charming clubhouse enjoyed by hundreds of welcoming members. For golfers, it’s London’s hidden gem. Every hole is unique on the undulating parkland layout that is remarkable and surprising. Legendary Open champion Henry Cotton understood the course’s renowned quality, saying that if you can play to your handicap at Hampstead, you can play anywhere!
