Set in classic Wiltshire countryside halfway between Bath and Bristol, Cumberwell Park Golf Club has been a proper favourite in the West since 1994. Golf World handed it four stars, and once you see the scale of the place you'll get it. It's Wiltshire's only 45-hole venue, with four nine-hole loops plus a handy par-3 course, so there's loads of golf without the usual 'same 18 again' feeling.
The best bit, in my opinion, is the flexibility. Mix and match the four loops and you can build different 18-hole combinations across a weekend, which is ideal for groups who want variety without travelling between courses. Short on time? The par-3 course is perfect for a quick nine, a warm-up or a bit of wedge work before your main round.
Practice facilities are strong too, with a 20-bay driving range (10 covered), a 1,800-square-metre short game area and two extra putting greens. So if you like arriving early to dial in your distances, you'll be in your element.
Cumberwell Park sits right at the heart of our Bristol and Bath golf tours, making it a straightforward add-on if you're building a multi-course trip in the region. And if you fancy going all-in, there are on-site cottages, so you can stay where you play and squeeze plenty of holes into a long weekend.
